Tallarico was trapped 130 feet below the surfaceof the Patuxtent River near Solomons for over six hoU?s. He was pinned to a dragging anchor by the chain when the tide started running. Five divers worked to free him. He was then placed in the chamber for four hours. In good condition, Tallarico said he would dive again. SCIENCE AT WORK By DELOS SMITH United Press Science Editor New York (U.R Two aca demic psychologists have sug gested that their professional col- leagues in industry should stop "selling" management on "as sumed" relationships between q the attitudes of workers toward their jobs and the amount of work the-workers do. In general, .what industrial psychologists have assumed is that where the workers like the management and the things man agement does and the environ ment it provides for their work, their productivity is high be cause their attitudes are con ducive to high productivity. . Dr. Arthur H. Bray field and Walter H. Crockett of Kansas State College asserted in a tech nical publication of the Ameri can Psychological association that human beings held fast in their "network of relationships" with one another of upper, equal 1 Qor lower degree, simply are not that simple. It is time for industrial psy chologists to stop making as sumptions about what goes on among human beings in Ameri can industries, they said. Rather they should start experimenting 'O withj these human beings in or G derrjo get at the hidden springs f and cogs- and wheels which make H them operate. Personal Goals They studied everything psy chology has learned by getting workers to fill questionnaires and observing workers at work, and the little they got from their studies that was concrete caused them to remark: "In the absence of more con vincingQevidence than is now at hand with regard to the bene ficial effects on job performance of high morale, we are led to the conclusion at we might better forego publicizing these alleged effects." They also concluded that (1) "satisfaction with one's position in a network of relationships need not imply strong motivation to outstanding performance within that system," and (2) a worker's productivity may be related only on the surface "to many of the goals toward which the industrial worker is striving." Emphasis was placed upon the variety of those personal goals almost as various as the workers ij themselves. As examples, they pointed out that a worker en grossed with the activities of his social sphere might be chary of so distinguishing himself with productivity that the rewards of higher pay and promotion would remove him from that sphere. Probe Satisfaction And the worker whose inter ests were centered in his union wouldn't be motivated toward high productivity, since high productivity means little or nothing in advancing a worker within his union. Also the work er might not see eye-to-eye with management as to the desirabil ity of high production he might feel that he could produce him self out of a job. They thought industrial psy chologists should find what causes a worker to be satisfied with his job, what attitudes go along with his satisfaction and what effect that satisfaction has upon him. They suggested also that their colleagues well might study: "The differential effect of par ticular kinds of management practices upon the attitudes and performances of workers with different motives, aspirations, and expectations. The approxi mate questions may concern how, for particular workers, produc tivity comes to be perceived as an instrument to the achieve ment of some goals but not oth ers, while for other- workers a different preception develops." Peron Said Planning Visit To Mexico City Mexico City U.R) Reliable sources said today ousted Argen tine President Juan D. Peron, I now living in exile in Panama, will come here within the next few days. The sources said Mexican actress Guillermina Tellez and other friends of the ousted dic tator were preparing a welcome for him. The foreign office said it had no official information about the report. However, it said the Mexican government was ready to issue the necessary permits if Peron wants to enter the country.
