  • Abstract
    The present acute shortage of engineers caused by the United States´ selective service policy during World War II is currently of much concern to the profession. Although it is probable that it will be at least five years before the condition is corrected, the situation can be alleviated somewhat by intelligent co-operation among the main competitors for the available supply of qualified engineers—industry, research, and education.
