Progress Costs High for Labor, Says Purdue Speaker

LAFAYETTE, June 26.—Technology can solve the greatest of modern problems—raising America’s standards of living—declared Dr. J. A. Estey, Purdue history, economy and government department head, in He spoke at the morning session ending the first week of the Purdue Institute of American Policy and Technology.

Scheduled to speak Monday open-o— ing the Institute’s second and final week of lectures are Owen D. Young, financier and industrialist; Dr. O. E. Baker, population authority; Dr. Dexter S. Kimball, Cornell University engineering school dean; Dr. Ellsworth Huntington, human geography professor at Yale, and Dr. Lillian M. Gilbreth, Purdue engineering specialist.

Must Change Jobs

Dr. Estey, lecturing on “Technology and Labor Unrest,” said: “If progress is to be had, literally millions of persons every decade must change from job to job, from place to place, and from industry to industry. Labor pays a heavy price in insecurity for the undesirable benefits which our technological civilization bestows. It is this price that makes much of labor unrest.

“It seems possible that the costs of progress are growing. It has been hard for labor to maintain reasonable equality of economic power in face of the growing accumulation of capital in giant corporations. There is some evidence that technological unemployment is increasing and will increase rather than diminish. “The problem of the older worker gets more serious as times goes by. And there is no doubt that the enormous misery of recurring depressions is so far an unavoidable.
