HEADQUARTERS, A UNITED
STATES ARMY ORDNANCE DIS
TRICT, April War is big busi-
ness.
1t is bigger business than this Ma
ton ever has dreamed of before.
The colonel in command of this
ordnance district is young man.
Let's see," he says, 'last year We
negotiated 100000, 900 worth of con-
tracts"
You're wrong, colonel" breaks in
captain. Just minute. I've got
the exact fgures-$1, ITS, ,000 ,000."
Three years ago this colonel, then
a major, had an Office, stenograph-
er and vague idea of what might
come to pass. Today he is one of the
biggest businessmen in the United
States. Presidents and vice preSi-
dents of s1OO,00O0O0 corporations are
working for him. They are working
for a small part of their former sal
aries-but here "the boss" pays lots
of his former employees lot more
than he gets himself.
What His Job Is.
His iob-merely to mobilize the in
dustry of probably the richest in
dustrial area of the world into an
about effort to win the war and at
the same time to see that everything
related to ordnance production
needed by the United States Army
is produced as cheaply as possible
and that profits are not excessive.
The manufacturers have cooper
ated, from presidents Of mammoth
corporations to the little fellow who
runs a machine shop on back alley.
They all have healthy respect for
the colonel. So do reporters for
whom the pleasant, slightly profane
young officer delayed an important
trip for an hour without even hint
ing that he was in a hurry, although
| it probably meant he would get no
sleep that night.
He is the commanding officer OF
one of Uncle Sans 13 ordnance
districts. He has only $50 1000 items
| to worry about. They form parts
of $4,000 major items necessary for
winning the war. Only few of
them have ever been manufactured
| in mass quantities before.
| Outlay Grows Dizzily. =
But the colonel knows nearly
every machine in his district and
just what it can do. On his own
responsibility he has altered stand
ard designs so that they can be
! stamped or drilled with available
facilities. He knows the degree Of
responsibility of the manufacturers
in his district. He throws money
around with an ease that would

German Chute Exper'
Is Reported Sent 10
Mediterranean Area
British Correspondent
Envisions New Move for
Air-Borne'Nozi Army
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
LONDON. April 7.-Morley Rich
ards, military correspondent of the
Daily Express, reported today that
1t. Gen. Student, who commanded
German parachute troops during
their assault on the Netherlands,
had joined German Field Marshal
Albert Kesselring in the Mediter-
panean area. Mr.. Richards observed
that a new adventure for an air
borne German Army was indicated.
Marshal Kesselring commanded
German air forces in the French
campaign and in the bombing of
England in 1910 and 1941. The
correspondent said it was known
that hundreds of German gliders
and transport planes were concen-
trated on the North Mediterranean
shores and in North Africa.
He said Gen. Student had visited
Sicily, Greece and Crete recently
and might be organizing one of
three adventures. One possibility,
he said, was a two-Way air-borne
attack from Libya and Crete on the
rear of the British Army in Libya
while Marshal Erwin Rommel'S
North African land forces launched
full-scale offensive against the
British by land.
Another possibility, he said, was
an assault on Suez to forge link
with the japanese in the Indian
Ocean.
The third was an air-borne as
sault on Syria and the British island
fortress of Cyprus in the Eastern
Mediterranean to skirt Turkey and
reach the MoSul oil fields.

War Becomes Biggest Business
U.S.. Has Ever Experienced
One Ordnance District Commander Spends
81 Millions in Single Month

astound the worlds biggest banker
Last July the contracts he let
amounted to a mere $1,000, 900. In
January they were $22,00000O. In
February they were $32, 100000. In
March-the figures are not all in
but the colonel himself hesitates to
estimate the total. 1t will make
that for February look like small
change.
But after talking with this man
on colonels pay, who was Won
dering if he could afford to keep a
stenographer a few months ago, one
is pretty confident that hardly a
penny Of the money is going to
waste. The atmosphere in his office
is strange after that of some
agencies in Washington.
He has a lot of authority. He
can make any contract not in excess
of $5,000,000 direct, without any ref
erence to headquarters. Every night
pile of blue prints 4 feet thick
goes out Of his Office. They are
complete to the last detail. He has
the authority to hire any expert in
the world to help him on technical
or business details, for a salary of
$4,000 a year or less.
Most of his success to date he
attributes to the fact that so many
of the Nations leading businessmen
have been willing to accept such
full-time Jobs.

charge OF the district activities re-

portance of the tool-naker and de-
signer In this war hardly can be
exaggerated. The Job has been to
survey the machines, determine
every job they could do, and then
try to re-design war products in
conformity with these capacities.
1t Is a new art Of war-industrial
tactics. 1t is probably more i'm
portait than the minor tactics Of

Nosed out by Catholic University,

same way they lost six other games
this season, American University's
Eagles were to bring their abbrevi-
ated diamond campaign to a close
against George Washington this
afternoon in a game on the East
Ellipse.
1t was the penultimate game for
the Colonials, who close their season
Saturday in a return game with
Maryland.
Big "Sneeze" Ksycewski went to
Bernie Cody's rescue to save yester-
days game for the Cardinals, who
piled up commanding 80 lead in
the first four frames and Just barely
made it to the finish line ahead of
the foe. It was sweet revenge for
Shorty" Hughes outfit, which
dropped an SIT duke to the Eagles
earlier in the year.
American, following a custom that
seems to have been firmly estab-
lshed this spring, sent two runners
over the plate in the final frame, but
fell one short Of deadlocking the
score. Only in the first, when
Catcher "Shanty" Shepherd spanked
a lusty triple to deep left. did the
losers have the lead, and the Cards
erased it with a four-run assault In
the fourth.

BY BARTON PATTIE,


RICHMOND, Va, May Zap
proximately one-haH Of v. M. rs
big Six" championship track squad.
the first unbeaten major sport squad
the Old Dominion has produced in
years, had no track experience be-
fore entering the institute.
This is proof that 1t. Col. H. M.
(Son) Read has done a considerable
coaching job at Lexington, but he
would be the last to admit it.
Anybody could coach boys who
work as hard as ours" the colonel
said, attributing the teams success
to the determination of the cadets
to make good, to the work of Trainer
Herb Patchin and to the assistance
of Football Mentor Carney Laslie in
the weights.
Among the stars who were strang-
ers to the cinders when they arrived
in Lexington were Meriwether Jones,
$50; Charlie Chewing, mile, and
Ed Jones, 2-miler; George Colonna,
mile; Joe Johnston, 440; Eugene
Kelly, mile, and Jack Wright,
dashes, and Joe Muha, weights.
Walter Galliford, who in freshman
and sophomore seasons at the insti-
tute developed from a stringy youth
lacking stamina to finish 220-yard
dash into one Of the best sprinters
the State ever has seen, had no dash
experience nor any real track train
ing before entering v. M. I.
