Blackstone WARREN H. McBRYDE 1939-1940 Warren Horton McBryde Warren Horton McBryde, consulting engineer, industrialist, and world traveler, of San Francisco, California, President of The American Society of Mechanical Engineers for the year 1939-1940, was born at Mobile, Ala., in 1876. At the age of 17, he entered the Alabama Polytechnic Institute, Auburn, where he specialized in electrical and mechanical engineering. He was graduated in 1897 with the degree of B.S. Immediately after graduation, he was employed by the Electric Lighting Co. of Mo­ bile, following which he did architectural designing and drafting for George F. Barber & Co., Knoxville, Tenn. During the Spanish-American War, he served for a few months in the U.S. Lighthouse Department and U.S. Engineers Corps and had charge of the submarine mines, searchlights, and electrical equipment guarding the entrance to Mobile Bay. Following this he was made chief electrician of the U.S. Army Trans­ port iSheridan, on which he made a voyage from New York, N.Y., via the Suez Canal to the Philippines; thence via Nagasaki, Japan, to San Francisco, where he was honor­ ably discharged. From 1899 to 1903, Mr. McBryde was employed by the Yuba Elec­ tric Power Company as assistant resident engineer in charge of construction on the Colgate hydroelectric powerhouse, in northern California, by the Peyton Chemical Company, San Francisco, as assistant superintendent of construction and by the Bay Counties Power Company, also of San Francisco, as chief draftsman and assistant to the chief electrical and mechanical engineer. He was the first resident engineer in charge of construction at Gibbstown, N.J., for the E. I. du Pont de Nemours Powder Company from 1903 to 1905, and was trans­ ferred during the year 1905 to Hercules, Calif., where he constructed large sulphuric acid plants. In 1906, he was appointed the first chief of the West Coast engineering and construction department of the du Pont organization and, subsequently, became assistant superintendent of its Hercules plant and retained this position until 1919. During this period, Mr. McBryde was in charge of all maintenance and repairs, and handled many important engineering problems in connection with the hurried con­ struction of 12 large TNT plants, the necessary nitric- and sulphuric-acid factories, and many other industrial buildings during the World War. He was also in charge of the labor- and industrial-relations department of the company and secured positions for more than three quarters of the 4000 men under his supervision when demobiliza­ tion came. In 1919, he became secretary of the California & Hawaiian Sugar Refining Co., San Francisco, and assistant to the general manager, and handled many important engineering problems for the company until 1927, when he engaged on his own ac­ count in his present business as a consulting engineer. Mr. McBryde was elected a member of the Society in 1921. He was chairman of the San Francisco Section in 1925 and 1926, when the Spring Meeting was held in San Francisco in the latter year. As a delegate from the Section, he attended the 1926 Annual Meeting of the Society in New York, N.Y., and the celebration at Washington, D.C., in 1930, of the fiftieth anniversary of the formation of the A.S.M.E. In company with Calvin W. Rice, Mr. McBryde represented the Society at the 75th anniversary of the Verein deutscher Ingenieure at Cologne, Germany, in June, 1931; he also attended the 1931 and 1935 spring meetings in England of The Institu­ tion of Mechanical Engineers at Cambridge and Bath, respectively. He was one of the founders of the Engineering Societies Employment Service office in San Francisco. In 1937, Mr. McBryde was elected vice-president of the A.S.M.E. and in his official capacity attended the 1937 and 1938 Annual Meetings in New York. He has taken a great deal of interest in the activities of A.S.M.E. student members and has attended their meetings at several schools on the West Coast as well as the Student Group Meetings, in 1938 and 1939, at Los Angeles and San Francisco, respectively. In more recent years Mr. McBryde made his second and third circumnavigations of the globe, including voyages which took him through the Suez and Panama Canals, the Strait of Magellan and around the Cape of Good Hope, and visited and studied some eighty of the most prominent countries of the world, some two hundred and fifty of the most important world ports, and the capitals and principal cities of most of these countries. These extended trips were made to study first-hand the engineering progress and industrial developments, the harbor improvements and port facilities, the transporta­ tion systems—rail, highways, and inland waterways—also the industrial, mineral, and agricultural products of these countries, as well as their domestic commerce and foreign trade, their economic conditions, and their political problems. During these trips he met many of the world’s leading engineers and the directors of the most im­ portant museums of science and industry. Other activities of Mr. McBryde include election as mayor of Hercules, Calif., and supervisor of Contra Costa County, while a resident of that city; the San Francisco Engineers’ Club; the San Francisco Electrical Development League; and the presi­ dency of the Industrial Association of San Francisco, in 1921, in recognition of his experience as an industrial employer and his interest in workingmen.
