one thing Of the public, please

Measure. chairman of the
laundries' war conservation COM
mittee. "We're doing the best
we can. Already all laundries
haxe zoned their drivers TO meet
the IS per cent cut In gasoline
usage.
Never has the laundry bust
ness been greater, because so
many women have gone to work
In industry"
Sometimes, especially over /;

Late Laundry
Premium on Cleanliness Due
to Lack Of Help
Photo BY Times stan Pnotosrap hel

Boys, you'd better buy some
more shirts.
And you should get them
off to the laundry before you're
down to your last two, or you
won't be able to show up for work
one of these days.
The reason? Detroit's laundries,
like all businesses, are short of
help. Purchase of new machinery
is prohibited now, and their en-
ployes today are the 17-year-olds
and the 60-year-olds, because the
rest of the girls have gone into
war plants.

at Peak Production

More than 10000 Detroit women
and 10000 minors and aged men
are TO be sought by Detroit fac
tories 10 meet the armament re-
quirements of the United Nations,
il developed today following the
visit here by Donald M. Nelson.
the nations boss of war produc-
ton.
In addition to the unprecedented
enrolment of women workers in
the arsenals, plane and tank
plants. Detroit may have to i'm
port 10000 workers from other
parts of the country, Nelson said.
But no official could predict how
the city can solve the housing and
TRANSPORTATION problems resulting
from such a heavy influx of new
residents.
RAMBLER GIVES FACTS
Ernest Kanzier, regional direc-
tor of the WPB, gave Nelson the
facts when the war board chair
man was here Saturday. These
are:
Detroit factories now employ
$4,000 workers. will need $50
600 by November and $4,000
when the war production peak is \
reached more than Year hence.
The net number of unem-
ployed workers is $4,000 and
Hthese can be augmented by So
200 women and 10000 minors
and elderly persons.
The area. after allowing for
armed service requirements,
may still face a shortage at war
peak of about 157 900 workers.
"The bottleneck In Detroit
will be shortage of labor"
Nelson announced.
NATIONS PACENAkER
After visiting the Ford bomber
plant at Willow Run and the
Chrysler tank plant, the produc-
ton chief said that Detroit is the
nations pacemaker in war pro-
duction.
at was a thrilling experience
that I will remember the rest of
my Iife," he commented.
"Your energy and enthusiasm,
combined with your genius for
engineering and design, have
worked wonders"
Nelson said expenditures on war
work totaled $4,000, 100000 duringl
May: that production here is well
ahead of schedule, and that II can
be doubled before 1914.
CRACK HARD JOBS HERE
His most important problem, he
said. is TO synchronize the flow of
raw materials 10 factory needs
and gear all production TO war
strategy.
Detroit II the city where we
will crack the hard nuts" Nell
son continued. THE things that
are easy TO make can he as
signed TO other areas and this
may, to some extent, relieve the
labor shortage"
Accompanying the WPB chair
man were Oliver Lyttelton, British
cabinet member in charge of pro-
action in England; w. s. Robin
son. representing the Australian
government. and w. Averell Har-
riman, special lend-lease envoy TO
