The Cracker Barrel F orum By A. J. Drinkell A recent issue of The New York ‘Times announced the dedicatton of a million-dolla school building erect- ed by the Carnegie Institute of Tech- ‘nology. The article carrying the an- nouncement was the subject of our last hold-forth. : ‘This school has been created to help meet the growing demand in american industry for men trained in “both engineering and management. Primary emphasis will be on train- ing men thoroughly in fundamentals, in problem solving ability and in con- tinuing to learn for themselves from experignce-in industry. Briefly stated, the°objects of the course are: -) (1) A firm grasp of fundamental knowledge in management econom- ies and engineering. can (2) A genuine understanding of the economic and social sytém in which the student lives and in which his business syill operate. z (3) Independence of thought, ma- turity of character and the ability: to deal effectively with other people. (4) A habit of learning from ex- perience including the habitual re- ceptiveness to new ideas and new ways of doing things. The Degree of Master of Science in Industrial Administration will be awarded after two years’ graduation work. The concluding paragraph of the article reads: “In his final sem- ester. each student, working inde- pendently or in a small group, under- ‘When you “Go Greyhound”, money-saving fares together with frequent, convenient schedules and liberal stopovers, make it a really outstanding buy!

We cannot (repress the thought, which crops up in all our discussions of this subject namely: Why must the taxpayer provide in- struction and training which it is ¢learly the function of industry itself to supply? For many, many years we listened to immigrants to this coun- try-being scoffed at because they were not so mechanically versatile as their Canadian counterparts. Para- doxieally, the Native Sons were, at the same time, complaining bitterly because these same people came to Canada and took all the best paid jobs. We wanted them to be jacks of all trades rather than masters of one. D » delingency on the-part ‘of‘of the migrant was, and still is, largely due to the extensive tse Of the apprenticeship system in European countries. Young people liaving no desire or aptitude for aca- to be absorbed in industry, as ap- Prentices. In other words they con- tinue their education in the environ- ment of their chosen trade. This i no hit and miss proposition, as their progress and well-being is scrutiniz- ed by representatives of the labour unions concerned. The proficiency of the finished artisans, thus turned out, is the predominant gauge by which the public rates the efficiency of the various establishments. We have on the statute books of B.C. a very excellent “Apprentices Act” but it is little used. Discussing this matter with those who should know we were informed the labour unions on this continent do not fa- your the apprenticeship idea largely due to the fact that undef its ex tensive use only highly qualified artisans would be eligible for mem- bership in the various unions, where- as now, for example, give a man a hammer, a saw and a carpenter's apron with a dollar in the pockets and he can obtain a membership card in the carpenters’ union. This system serves the dual purpose of swelling the membership and enabling th jack of all trades to extract a scale of wages from his fellow man out of all proportion to his competency. “| Séeondly, parents aré™prone to be-| lieve their Johnny should remain av school to become a professor of something or other at all costs. Con- sequently, the idea of. his going out to work, or more correctly, to con- tinue learning while being moder- ately remunerated, is abhorrent. However, the concluding para graph of the article under review appeurs to substantiate our conten- tion that no matter whether it be starting as office boys, leading to qualified executives, or as beginners on the work bench, resulting in high- ly skillful artisans, there is no place where our youth can be more effici- ently trained or gain a fuller knowl- edge of all the requirements set forth in the schedule of objectives, quoted above, than in the environ- ment of their chosen occupation. Is it not there where the competitive principles of our free enterprise-sys- tem demand up-to-date methods and equipment as well as the fullest knowledge of the people with whom 2 they must transact their busine: It strikes us most forcibly that just so long as industry, labour unions and parents frown upon this desirable condition, just so long must the taxpayer bear the cost of relieving industry of the onus of training its own personnel. A func- tion it should be fully qualified te perform in toto. ‘The committee re- cently appointed to discover methods of more equitable distribution of ed- ueational costs, particularly in viev. of the pending era of more rapid in- dustrial expansion, might protitably give eareful consideration to the pos- sibility of incorporating our prentices Act” in a training s whereby the burden of providing the inevitable demand for trained work- ers may be borne, in equitable pro portions, by the Slate, the employer and the student apprentice; which is probably the better solution. Ot it may be that many of our smaller tradesmen and industrialists, who really form the backbone of any successful appreniiceship feel they are not competent to per- form the task, in which case, further comment would prove odious. system, Boxing Day Holiday Boxing Day, December 26, has been declared a holiday under the Shops Regulation Act and the Fac- tories Act, the Provincial Secretary's office has announced.
