Busiest Man
in America"

A formidable man in a formi-
dable Job in this crucial year OF
1e4l is your decision. and every
body who has seen and studied
the man in action agrees with you.
Signius Wilhelm Poul Knudsen
"a factory timekeeper long ago
shortened his name TO the more
convenient William S. Knudsen =
has within the space Of a few
month"; become an American leg
end. In Washington where indus
try Is al fever-heat. where desks
today are unmarked with heel
prints or spurs. where executives
toll for 10 and IL hours a day. he
is called the busiest man in Amer
lea,
There is no reason T. doubt the
reputation for his is the gigantic
task OF harneSsing American in
dustry 70 defense-and Harvesting
II In q hurry.
II is his particular Job to speed
up production. TO coordinate rap
idly the program that is making
an arsenal Of the American democ-
racy.
Knudsen has the confidence of
all production experts who Lave
the ability Of getting things done.
Detroit evening times. (Detroit, Mich) 1921-1958, 1941-04-27

Ask him about bottlenecks and he
will reply:
Time is the only bOttleneck.
The day ought TO be longer than
"a hOrrs," he will smile. Maybe,
we should do something about IL. ;"
Yet. he says. he would be happy
to work only 10 hours a week if in
10 hours you could produce as
much as anybody else in 40 or so
hours.
Ask him II production is pro-
crossing according to schedule and
he will answer:
1--WE don't consider schedule
here. We're just going ahead. We're
getting out the stuff"
Knudsen occupies an office some
25 feet square on the fifth floor of
the Social Security Building. which
covers a city block, some 100 yards
from the new National Art GAL
lery 1t is not Hollywood's or even
Detroit's sumptuous sanctum of a

upholstered chairs about a big
desk. Here and there are some
