ORGANIZATION
When the American engineers appeared on the. scene
"Over There," the necessity of putting through one big job was
apparent. Thousands of our boys were to follow; the big ships
bringing them, and the big freighters loaded with supplies must
be able to dock quickly, unload in haste and depart unhampered
by delay of any kind, to bring more and more men and additional
tons of food, supplies, ammunition and the necessities of war, in
order that success be assured right from the start. .
: A certain seaboard town, on the coast of France, had been
selected as the most favorable port for the landing of these great
ocean carriers, but the facilities to dock and store were far from
adequate and haste was the important factor to save France.
. Elaborate plans had been prepared by the French engi
neers for building suitable docks and warehouses, but they said it
would take six years to complete them. The American engineers
re-designed and built them in six months. ORGANIZATION
did it. , , '
So it is with everything else American today. Success in
the operation of all the big things, in this ago of wonderful ac-'
complishment, is through this medium. Public service . corpora
tions have been quick to realize this fact and their policy has
undergone a change. -
Organization sounds the death knell of the duplication of
effort, it systematizes details, it brings unity or action, it pro
duces the most for the least, it makes a smooth limning marine
whose product is service.
This is the reason why, in this day of progress and devel
opment, modern cities and great manufacturing industries prefer
to be doing business with large concerns engaged in supplying
electric energy; this is why the systems and plants of big power
companies are being , tied together to secure the most efficient
service through organization , ; ,
