Abstract :
This article, second in a series discussing the general subject, is devoted to determining the probable part the engineer will play in the postwar world. As in the past, the engineer is expected to expand and apply knowledge for the benefit of all. Beyond this, however, is the question of the control by the engineer of the uses to which his products may be put, in order to insure that they are used for good and not for evil. Because of his knowledge, professional position, and the strength of engineering societies, the engineer should take an active part in guidance toward a wholesome life.
