Excerpt from Engineering and Contracting, Vol. 57: January June, 1922
Whenever an editorial is published in a daily paper on a subject in which you are very well informed, you will usually find yourself in disagreement with some, if not all, of the editor's conclusions. Did it ever occur to you that every other specialist finds the average daily paper editorial on his specialty equally erroneous? And did you ever stop to consider that every branch of human knowledge is some body's specialty? If a non-specialist is usually incapable of reasoning soundly on a subject that is a specialty, and if all subjects are specialties when properly treated, it follows that no one but a specialist can be trusted to express any opinion on anything. This seems an extreme position to take. Yet it is not far from the truth. Indeed it expresses the truth completely wherever human knowledge has reached the scientific stage in any of its departments. It is only because so much of our knowledge is very fragmentary and unsystematized that one well-read man is occasionally as much entitled to an opinion as another.
