Contacts between engineers and the public discussed by the Toronto section

At a meeting of the Toronto Section held on March 8, 1929, E. M. Ashworth, Gen. Mgr., Toronto Hydro-Electric System, presented a paper entitled The Electrical Engineer and the Public, in which he discussed the natural tendencies of engineers toward concrete and physical ideas and away from the metaphysical and abstract, with an inclination toward repression of visionary tendencies. Methods by which engineers can serve the public were mentioned.
