Packard Workers
Prove Their Worth
To War Program

Packard's work to Win"
program. which set the pace
long ago In ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
relations, now has shown the
entire nation its worth to the
war program. Just think: Nine
out of 80 honors handed out by
Donald M. Nelson's War Produc-
ton Drive headquarters went to
Packard workers.
That Is high percentage In
any field. But it Is not mere
glory that was won; 1t was the
contributions made to winning
the war, the ideas which are
saving time and money and
precious materials and tools.
That was what was honored by
the WPB.
Five firsts and four honorable
mentions was what the an
nouncement of the awards said.
But how many more weapons
will be produced, how many
lives will be saved to the Ameri-
cans on the various fronts, by
those five firsts and four honor
able mentions? That cannot be
counted in awards and medals
and citations. The real spirit OF
the Packard Work 10 Win"
program is centered on these inn
portant elements.
