The great American colleges have created technicians of high quality – scientists of high quality, engineers of high quality - but in the field of philosophy, in the field of where we need people at present to give safety and surety to our people, we have failed absolutely, because our whole approach towards philosophy was a pragmatic approach. That is good which is successful. That had been the philosophy which has substituted all the Christian philosophy by this group of people who had impressed their stamp upon its face.

odwrócić do góry nogami
The sense of this paragraph is that the philosophers have turned things upside down. Good is judged by its pragmatism, not by its moral value.
The speaker is mixing metaphors and missing the intended message - to turn upside down.
