No Time For Hysteria

So far in this war, the doctors
have quietly endeavored to comply
with military as well as civilian
needs. Out of a total of $4,000
medical men in the nation. over
forty thousand are giving their
skills to the military services. And
the heroic job they are doing in
far-away corners of the world is
well attested to by the recent COM
ment of Admiral Ross T. McIntire,
Surgeon General of the Navy: "On
Guadalcanal scores of doctors and
hundreds of members of the medi-
cal corps operate American field
hospitals under continuous fire E.
We have suffered heavy casualties
among our medical personnel in
these operations" The Marines are
no exception. The doctors are ev-
erywhere that battles are being
fought.
As far as civilian health is con-
cerned, one of the toughest prob
lens is the nurse and the general
labor shortage. But the doctors
remaining at home are taking steps
to alleviate this shortage, even as
they are working out a definite pro-
gram of civilian medical care. All
that they need is cooperation on the
part of the public. Securing this
cooperation is not made easier by
the activities of hysterical extre-
mists who would arbitrarily ration
doctors like bicycles, with the ulti-
mate aim of socializing medicine.

End Feather Bed LOafing

a
The majority of American citi-
zens will say amen" to the fol-
lowing quotation from a New York
Times editorial:
1.-THE quickest way to increase
manpower is to increase man
hours. We must increase the ma
tional working week, to an aver
age of not less than 4S hours. What
even counts more than man-hours
as such is the total productivity of
labor within those hours. We must
end the feather-bed practices built
up by the unions, the make-work,
the unnecessary jobs. We must in
crease the efficiency of labor, man
agement and organization. These
are some of the things we must do
before resorting to compulsory
labor service, with the tremendous
problems this presents.
Specifically. examples of "feath-
er-bed" practices referred to by the
Times, are rules and practices that
limit production, such as extreme
ly short hauls between division
points on railroads which, under
Milford chronicle., 1942-12-18

this kitchen equipment was needed,
Somehow this word reached the
ears of officials of the Ford Motor
Company.
Men showed up with tape meas
ures and sheets of stainless steel.
Shortly afterward these sheets
were being rivetted into perfectly
fitted counters, steam tables, kitch-
en- cabinets.
The River Rouge plant, for the
first time in its recorded history,
went in for making S0-gallon coffee
urns. Today this all stands-spot-
less, functioning perfectly. Not to
be overlooked, incidentally. are the
1000 or more metal trays also
made by Ford. These contain COM
partments for every eatable except
soup and coffee. Such have to be
served in bowls and cups.
There is little dishwashing at
this station. Automatic machines
receive the trays, twirl them around
in steaming water for a while and
they emerge clean and dry, ready
for immediate service.
This was the equipment with
which the station opened-com-
plete. modernistic, efficient.
Milford chronicle., 1942-12-18

Not all is work at the station
however. Some men have time of
every evening in the week, alter
mating of course, and great mum
ber get away each weekend.
There are two incidents in the
growth of the school that are worth
repeating. One is the story that is
told of the visit of the admiral. II
seems that this official advised the
then commanding officer that on a
certain day he would arrive the fol-
lowing afternoon for an inspection.
Admirals frown upon anything
limiting disorder. The new Naval
Station was only a few weeks old,
bare rock and ground still sur
rounded it; there were no trees and
no grass. Admittedly its environs
were bleak.
Officials of the Ford Motor Com
pany were informed of the forth
coming visit. The legend is that
Henry Ford hastened to the
grounds to look at the training
area. Hardly an hour elapsed after
Mr.. Ford's visit before trucks be-
gan to arrive. These were loaded
with trees, turf, sod and gardeners.
started to level the
ground. AS fast as this was done,
workmen followed, some digging
holes into which STRIPPING trees
were placed and then guyed with
wires. Still others began laying
and rolling the squares of SOD,
much of it sMooth as a golfgreen.
All through the night and well
into the following day this con-
Linued. 1t was shortly after noon
that the crew finished. What had
been a barren area, had become a
vista, in less than 4S
hours. The admiral was pleased.

Then there was the matter of the
kitchens. Establishment of this
station took place simultaneously !
with that of a number of others. 4
Everything had to have a priority. /
Metal articles such as stoves, cof- /
Zee urns, steam tables counters,
rays, and such, were inconceiv-
lble. No one could hope to get 1
hem for six months to a year

Meanwhile, the Naval Training

1000 ATTEND NAVAL
TRAINING STATION

A Naval Training Station, witt
the worlds largest industria
plant in it's backyard, is located SO
miles inland at the River Roug'
plant of Ford Motor Company il
Dearborn, Mich.
Here 1000 machinists, aviation
machinists, metalsmiths, shipfitteri
and Diesel engineers are being
turned out every four months, after
practical courses in the Ford shops
and being assigned to our wal
ships all over the globe.
Ground for the station was bro
ken in the southwest end of the
Rouge plant December 6, 1910.
Previously Uncle Sam and Hen
ry Ford had entered into a lease
for the duration" for 81 a year.
Forty days later, on January Is,
1941, the first contingent Of $50
moved into quarters consisting of a
barracks, an administration build
ing, a steam plant and part of the
mess hall. What had been rubble-
strewn ground had been converted
into a site for comfortable living
quarters with everything in work.
ing order.
Today the training station con-
sists of eight barracks buildings,
an administration building, COM
missary building, a 70-bed hospital
and dental clinic, where three ply
sicians and one dentist are in at
tendance; a fire house, two power
houses two utility buildings, a
recreation building dedicated De-
cember z, 194D, and a school
building nearing completion. J..
The mess hall accommodates $50
at one sitting. The recreation
building is equipped with modern
movie sound projectors, spotlights,
a Hammond organ, a radio, con-
tains stage with all manner of
for producing plays, has
an acoustical ceiling and walls, and
a polished floor for rollerskating
and dancing.
The training courses being pur-
sued here are, in effect, merely pro-
jections of the Ford apprentice
schools which have been in opera
ton for 'teen'-age youngsters for
20 years. Under that system boys
go to school and get practical train
ing in shop methods and practices.
The same now holds true of the
Navy.
Enrollees come to Dearborn after !
six to eight weeks of recruit train
ing at Naval Stations such as Great |
Lakes, ILL.,, Newport, r. l., or San
Diego, Cal. The men are volunteers
in the regular U. S. Navy and in |
The Naval Reserve who have been |
assigned to the school as a result |

stations. Only enlisted |
men go through the course.
Eight hours a week are spent in |
the classrooms where Ford in

theory and teach the men to read
They also are taught
The use of micrometers, calipers
and other instruments necessary in
shop work. Thirty-two hours are
spent in shops or on jobs. Whether
in the classroom or at work, the
men are always under the COM
nand of Navy officers.
There is no central location for
classes or work. In the various
shops scattered about the 1900

Government. Great hotels in At

Some of the leading private
schools of the United States have
been commandeered by the Army
