That this ignoring of the indeâ€" pendent variable, the human facâ€" tor, which has caused so many perâ€" fectly _ conceived _ governmental structures to collapse like houses of cards when applied to human conâ€" ditions, is the opinion of the outâ€" spoken Brooks, Aita., Bulletin, adâ€" ding: In times of great stresses and strains men of government become more envious than ever of men of science. They are tempted to treat their material as an engineer treats his. But this is not an Angloâ€"Saxon tradition. We are not enamored by the cold logic or perfection of the mechanical drawing. We prefer to obey what we are pleased to call our political instincts.

Do we ever consider that a man or woman that is used to driving on decent streets through a city is not prepared for the "tank testing ground" that the city fathers refer to as the "main street"?
