The role of engineers in Mexico´s development

Mexico´s industrial development should be carried out on bases that would take advantage of the peculiarities of the people and of the country. Emphasis should be placed in the production of agricultural products of durable nature or of immediate industrial use, in the production of refined minerals and of chemical substances in bulk. The type of manual workers and of technicians available are adapted to this type of manufacture much better than to manufacture in large scale of articles of intricate design that require rigid inspection and uniformity.
