When the day shall come that the ultimate benefits of Scientific
Management are realized and enjoyed, depends on both the managers
and the workers of the country; but, in the last analysis, the
greatest power towards hastening the day lies in the hands of
the workers.
To them Scientific Management would desire to appeal as a road
up and out from industrial monotony and industrial turmoil. There
are many roads that lead to progress. This road leads straightest
and surest,--and we can but hope that the workers of all lands, and
of our land in particular, will not wait till necessity drives, but
will lead the way to that true "Brotherhood" which may some day come
to be.
