On the
Business
Front
By WARD SCHULTZ
prsrcn Irns. FINANCIAL tdHof

GREAT BRITAIN, a tight
little nation with about a third
of the population of the United
States. was turning out more
war materials than we were up
until the middle of this summer.
The tremendous job being
done cannot be told in figures.
II was accomplished only by the
fullest utilization of available
man and woman power.
Today. two-thirds of the adult
popllation those between the
ages OF Ia and 65--are engaged
in war work or are IN the
armed services.
OF the remaining third. many
do part-time or voluntary work
and are housewives the balance
of the time
Britain is today the only coun-
try in the world which conscripts
women and so per cent OF the
workers in the royal ordnance
factories are female.
More than three out OF every
four boys and nearly three out
of four girls between the ages
of IL and II are doing war work,
Under the essential work
order. 100000 vital workers
are virtually under army disci-
pine. In return for sacrifice OF
liberty TO shift jobs. etc, they
have been guaranteed steady pay
despite stoppages due To bomb
ings. or other Interruptions.
The British report that joint
production committees, in which
workers and management work
out problems together. have
definitely increased output.
Among firms where committees
have been set up, II per cent
show production gains as against
a s. per cent record for plants
without committees.
HENRY BURRITT. dynamic
president of the Eureka Vacuum
Cleaner Company, has a grand
sense Of humor.
Before he started TO rebuild
the badly slipping Eureka outfit
into the present well-knit or
ganization, Burritt was a top
Nash-Kelvinator executive.
The other day he sent a little
present out to Nash-Kelvinator's
President George Mason.
II was single cartridge from
a flare pistol. They look exactly
like a 12-gauge shotgun shell.
except that they are about four
times as large. In the package
was a note:
Dear George:
eff you'd use shells this size,
maybe you could hit duck now
and then.
signed,
Henry"
Burritt explains gleefully that
George Mason is actually one
Of the finest shots in Michigan.
Presentation of < awards is
not limited TO large firms as so
many have grown TO believe.
Today. for example, the Put
nam Tool Company at 1881
Charlevoix received the coveted
Army-Navy pennant.
Master of ceremonies at the
affair where the concern will
get the "double-dip award will
be the originator of that phrase
Harvey Campbell.
Major Frank Couzens, ex-
mayor of Detroit. will represent
the army and 1t. Commander
II. s. Dilcher the navy.
The firm has 400 enploVes.

Wage Freezing
To Apply Only
To'Wdr Workers
President Is Expected
to Limit Raises to
Is Pet. Over JAM, I94I

WASHINGTON, Sept. 10 tUP).
Members of the House banking
committee were informed today
that President Roosevelt may out
law in war industries all wage and
salary increases that exceed the
Little Steel formula.
The committee, which will
handle the new authorization legis-
lation. has been insisting on a
clear-cut statement of the adj
mjnistration's wage control plans
before agreeing to allow ceilings
on farm products below ITO per
cent Of parity.
LIMIT TO RAISES
Banking committeeman have
been told. however. that Mr..
Roosevelt has prepared orders
prohibiting war contractors from
increasing the wage or salary of
any employe-voluntarily or under
pressure-beyond Is per cent more
than the job paid on Jan. l. 1871.
The War Labor Board has been
following the formula since setting
il up for the Little Steel industry,
but it does not reach voluntary
wage increases.
Unless there is a subsequent
change. the Presidents far-reach-
ing wage edict will not apply TO
wages and salaries in industries
not working on government war
contracts.
Thus, a department store clerk,
street car conductor or worker
in plant making civilian products
would not be subject 20 wage
freezing, the banking committee.
men were told.
FIRST IN HISTORY
An order outlawing raises in
war industries beyond the cost-of-
living increase since January,
1871, would impose the first wage
ceiling in American history. II
would be enforced by the govern
ment's power TO withhold funds
from war contractors or sub
contractors TO pay the outlawed
wage> increases.
The administrators program is
based on the premise that the
great increase in purchasing power
the increase which is threaten
ing disastrous war inflation-lies
with the workers in industries
which are the direct recipients of
war spending expected to reach
500, 900, 100000 annually.
