The material effect of this attempt to administer 'spiritual cocaine' to help endure a painful operation was sometimes temporarily expedient, yet the moral effect was decidedly degrading because of the silent admission that work is a curse." Financial incentives such as profit sharing and differential piece rates are 'obviously unfit" for stimulating true interest, he declared, as they merely create interest in obtaining higher pay, without releasing any of the relative self-expression which makes work tolerable for thinking workers. Would Fit Jobs To Workers.

Efforts to increase efficiency by "fitting workers to their jobs," are doomed to failure in a large measure, he declared. The proper course, he said, was to "fit the jobs to the workers." "The greatest source of waste," he declared," "is to be found in the idleness of available knowledge and creative capacities of men, which are not liberated and applied productively under the mechanistic, formal organization.
