The well-being of any civilized nation depends upon the amount of surplus energy stored in permanent productive wealth. We therefore need continually to recognize and encourage the development of that important part of our national industrial machinery, which is necessary not only for building the shelter, but also for building the plants which produce the food and the clothing as well as the means of transportation by which these necessities are made available.
