Nelson Predicts u. ).
Will Speed Delivery
On Defense Contracts
Existing Agreements
To Be Reneeotioted,
He Tells Senators
~ the Associated Press.

Donald M. Nelson of the Office
of Production Management predict
ed today that the Government
would act very SOON to speed up
defense production by renegotiating
many existing contracts to provide
earlier delivery dates.
Mr.. Nelson, o. P. MS director Of
purchases, was teStifying before the
Senate Defense Investigating Com
mittee. He did not specify what
steps were contemplated, but his
prediction followed a discussion in
which he agreed with Senator Con-
nally, Democrat, of Texas that de-
fense industry should be required
20 put on extra shifts.
Senator Connally had expressed
belief that the Government might
require contractors to put on extra
shifts or adopt a bonus plan for
work done ahead of schedule.
We're working toward that" Mr..
Nelson said, "and I think you will
see that in a very short time"
Mr.. Nelson said he believed il
would be necessary to advance the
present delivery time schedule all
along the line as one means of put
ting pressure on contractors to put
on extra shifts. He said also that
efforts should be made to have more
work distributed among small con-
tractors.
When are We going to make this
'aIl-out' effort?" Chairman Truman,
Democrat, of Missouri demanded.
That's what's worrying me-" Mr..
Nelson replied.
Senator Connally asked about eff
forts to spread contracts TO smaller
firms.
How are you going to spread the
steel business with Mr.. Stettinius
tE' R. Stettinius, jr., chairman of

sitting over there running the o. P.

It's very unfair to Mr.. Stettinius.
Senator" Mr.. Nelson objected. He
SAID Mr.. Stettinius was director of
prlorltles and as such had no direct
conhectlon with the spreading of
contracts.
Senator Connally told reporters
that testimony given the committee
indicated production was not NOV
ing swiftly enough to supply the
military needs of the United States
and Britain. For that reason. he
said he intended to find out whv
the Q. P. NJ. had not sought to force
