Mr.. McGovern, in a statement,
said his action was based on the

the country into ten munitions dis
tricts.
The manufacture of artillery Is
still, however, only in it's prepara-
tory stages. But it can be said that
a definite program has finally been
adopted, and, as the lack of this is
the principal cause of the lack OF
