Sinopsis
Excerpt from Executive Statistical Control, Vol. 2
In preparing the following pages, in which I have en deavored to detail the facts the industrial executive should have always before him and to explain why he requires such facts to conduct effectively the business for which he has assumed the responsibility, I have drawn very freely upon knowledge secured as a manual laborer, as an executive, and as an engineer for a period covering some fifteen years. Under the circumstances it is manifestly impossible to enu merate the sources of my information and to give credit where it is due. However, I feel especially indebted to the late Frederick W. Taylor, both for his books and for his personal assistance, given me freely at a time when he could ill afiord it; to H. L. Gantt whose eminently practical view-point led me to realize that the material return to both capital and labor from scientific management could be successfully set forth without inj ury to the ideals of the best of either; to Harrington Emerson as a continual source of inspiration dur ing my association with the Emerson Company, and to D. M. Hyman and certain of his associates from whom I gained an intimste knowledge of and respect for the methods which render the large corporation executive successful.

Excerpt from Executive Statistical Control, Vol. 2
Early in 1917 English industrial leaders were stating frankly in print that the salvation of the state, of capital and of labor after the war, would depend upon the nations income, which in turn would depend upon the reduction of production costs sufficiently to allow over-seas competition to be met. In fact, a growing. conviction developed among progressive thinkers in England that the interest of the state, whose policy would be largely directed by labor, would after the war be forced to the consideration of labor efficiency secured through some form of scientific management. Strange as it may seem, in a country long noted for its ultra-conservatism, scientific management has been regarded as an aid to labor much more widely in England than in America.
If competition becomes a race between separate nations, America must strain every nerve to the attainment of industrial efficiency. If competition resolves itself into economic war between groups of nations, America must be prepared rather to aid than to clog the industrial progress of her allies. If competition is replaced by the industrial millenium of the Internationalists, all that America can teach the world by example - reducing the expenditure of labor required per unit of production, and so aiding humanity by the reduction of fatigue and by the cheapening of both necessities and luxuries will be received with acclaim.
Every man, woman, or child who can assist in fitting his country to meet the future fearlessly and successfully is assisting humanity.
