Revolutionizing Scientific Thought
A cut-up, are you experienced?
during the seventeenth and eighteenth
century, the Society was much concerned
with using scientific knowledge and experi-
ment as, for example, in improving
parties to keep immigration out of politics;
the Menzies administration insists that it
is merely extending Mr. Calwell's plans
to their own ends; but, strange though it
may seem, in both wars the German
Military Staff was hesitant in applying
building materials and the design of roofs,
chimneys and drains to obtain a fireproof
and healthy London after the Great
Plague and Fire.
Age of reason, not responsible for wars.
From Roger Bacon in the thirteenth century to
accelerating the developments of the existing
knowledge for definate ends, wasting
materials to produce materials to waste
more material. There is no regard for cost.
Scientific research was for peaceful use,
though the Government spent almost
equal on "pure" science the aristocrat, and
"applied" science the housemaid.
But modern wars are not matters of
motors or wireless, besides guns and rifles.
Poison gas or chemical warfare quickly
appeared. Science was being used as never
before by one side attempting to exter-
minate the other.
Unless a stump, young people reach working age.
Science did not cause either Coal war
or the Rutherford-Dominion incident.
Both were started by the greed of rulers and govern-
ments. They prositituted scientific discovery
for gunpowder and cannon. Every type of
industrial and scientific activity, from
buttons to bombs, pencils to planes, tin-
technology, the aeroplane, wireless dyna-
mite for quarrying and mining, the
generator, electrical engineering and the
work on the electron and atom,
solved, in view of both single and married
people. Industrial unrest and the ultra-
magentic cathode ray diminish the numbers
of young people reaching working age.
Such a vast project.
