Evening courses at graduate levels — A challenge to colleges of engineering

DURING the past months with the hysteria of war about us and with the nation struggling to convert its peacetime activities into a gigantic war-time arsenal of fighting and defense implements, the most urgent demands have been made for a trained personnel. The present dearth of technically trained workers and skilled artisans has been strongly felt in nearly every phase of this controversion of industry — ranging from the highest levels of engineering research and design, on through the vast varieties of supervisory positions in manufacture and inspection of materiel, and into the front line trenches of industry where plowshares are being turned into proverbial swords.
