THE MEASURE OF COMPARATIVE PRODUCTIVENESS 315 or, on the other hand, depriving the foreman entirely of the right to exercise such judgments, a sane middle course may be adopted. The importance and effectiveness of per sonal and emotional estimates should be recognized from the outset by providing a column in which they shall be expressed. However, such estimates, instead of being entirely free, shall be controlled and guided. Now, it is evident from the form which has been provided that this can be done. On one side of the foreman’s column is the worker’s record of productiveness. If the foreman is in clined to rate a good man too low, a glance at his adjacent production record will automatically remind him of the worker’s good points.

Furthermore, if the opinion of a worker’s value must be expressed in terms of A, B, C, and D, rather than more highly colored terms, the danger of emotional excess is still further reduced. Finally, by requiring a periodic expression of opinion rather than a sporadic one, another danger of excess is removed. In industrial situations the principle, count ten before you speak, can be applied with great profit. If there is something of special significance which must be said, space is provided under “Remarks"; although this place is intended also for the recording of many other factors which should affect an employee’s retention; namely, “attends night school”, “understands electrical work”, “popular with the men”, “would like a trial as a tool setter ”, and so forth. There are a thousand and one unpredictable facts or incidents which have a bearing upon the individual’s record but for which no standard procedure can be devised. Under “Reason for
