XIII evolution: industrial government HIE large industrial corporation is to-day by far the most efficient organization, in spite of the inefficiency forced upon it by the political Government. It is still very crude and imperfect in many respects, and especially it is still greatly deficient in the social relations within the organi- zation and toward the general public. If an efficient co-operative government is to be built up from the industrial corporations, the in- dustrial corporation must first become united within itself — that is, the indifference and an- tagonij?in within the corporation must be over- come, and the same co-operative feeling brought about between the shop force and the adminis- tration which exists and always has existed in most corporations between the office force and the administration. That is, the welfare of the corporation

But there is practically never any moral issue behind the action of the scab, whether individual or corporation, but it is the sordid attempt of getting an individual advan- tage at the cost of the others.

  • Ether references: Verify exact wording before drawing conclusions. Ether language must be separated from later interpretive systems.
  • Field language: Read for whether field language is mechanical, geometrical, causal, descriptive, or simply a convenient engineering model.
  • Ether references: If Steinmetz mentions ether, quote only the verified source words first; any broader ether-field synthesis belongs in a labeled interpretive layer.
  • Field language: Field-pressure or field-gradient interpretations can be explored here only after the explicit source passage and modern engineering translation are kept distinct.
  1. Open the full source text and the scan or raw PDF.
  2. Verify the chapter boundary and surrounding context.
  3. Promote exact quotations only after checking the source image.
  4. Move mathematical candidates into canonical equation pages only after formula typography is corrected.
  5. Move diagram candidates into the diagram archive only after image extraction, crop verification, and manifest creation.
  6. Keep Steinmetz wording, modern translation, and ether-field interpretation in separate labeled layers.
