MORE POWER TO POWER
There are those who believe that our agricultur
al problems,—in fact, the nation’s problems — can
be solved by using less power, that is, going back to
the more primitive way of doing things. These peo
ple forget that America’s progress, the many things
that we have that are not enjoyed by other nations,
are due to a large use of horsepower, combustion en
gines, and electrical equipment. From an address
by Dr. Robert A. Milliken, California Institute of
Technology, before the Merchants’ Association of
New York, we take the following statements:
“In this country there is now expended about 13.5
horsepower hours per day per capita—the equiva
lent of a hundred human slaves for each of u s; in
England the figure is 6.7, in Germany 6, in France
4.5, in Japan 1.8, in Russia .9, in China .5. In the last
analysis, this use of power is why our most import
ant social changes have come about.
“This is why we no longer drive our ships with hu
man slaves chained to the oars, as did the Romans
and the Greeks. This is why 10 times as many boys
and girls are in the high school today in the United
States as were there in 1890. This is why we have
now an eight hour day instead of, as then, a 10, a 12,
—or sometimes a 14-hour day. This is why we have
on the average an automobile for every family, why
unskilled labor gets nearly twice as much in real
wages in the United States as in England, three
times as much as in Germany or France, and 13
times as much as in Russia.”
Those who would change our American form. of
government to some foreign type because they think
government is entirely responsible for the creation
of wealth, should reflect upon the differences of the
income in this country and Russia. We want a gov
ernment that permits free enterprise to operate, a
government that is an umpire, that each group of
citizens and all citizens will have equal opportunity.
Government has done little directly toward creating
wealth that this nation enjoys, but it is so consti
tuted that it has permitted people to use their initia
tive for creating this wealth. The success of the far
mer depends on using improved machinery that
more crops can be grown that greater returns can be
obtained than when our forefathers did not enjoy
the improved machinery and power we have today.
