Mai. Gen. C. M. Wesson in an
address for the inaugural meeting
of the Army Ordnance Associations
Cleveland Post, held in connection
with the National Metal Congress.
II may state with confidence that
from my long experience as an
ordnance officer and from my knoWl-
edge of the history of the United
States our fighting forces at this
stage never had the relative degree
of armament progress which now
prevails" Gen. WeSson continued.
Private contractors have taken
hold and "are going ahead just
as fast as is possible" Gen. Wesson
asserted. Despite the ingenuity
of other peoples of the earth, none
can match American genius in the
solution Of production problems"
