Mr.. Knudsen called upon firms
having defense contracts to make
use of subcontractors to ease the
strain imposed upon the machine

and equipment could be utilized.
He said that when he assumed

six months ago certain difficulties"
confronted the commission, but to-
day there are none"

fully laid out and apportioned to

Nobody is ever quite satisfied
