Farm Machinery
Shortage Laid
To Government

CHICAGO, Nov. l - Present

created by the governments Ia
per cent reduction in the 1910
level of farm machinery produc-
ton, Fowler Mccormick, presi-
dent of International Harvester
Co, said in answer 10 President
Roosevelt'S statement TO a press
conference that some manutac-
turers were apparently reluctant
TO 90 back TO producing farm
implements because they could
make more money turning out
munitions.
Mccormick declared that the
present level of production set by
the government lis now generally
recognized as a mistake" He said
that international Harvester has
stepped up tractor production
from 30 per day in June TO 20C
per day and that its repair parts
production program is % per cent
over a year ago, an all-time high
record.
"Tn March, 1912, the har-
vester company adopted a pol
icy of voluntarily limiting its
profits on munitions 10 rea-
sonable figure" Mccormick
said. ''its profits on f342 war
production were substantially
less, not more than Its low nor
NAL profits on farm machinery
]. products.
1.-THE record shows that Har-
vester time after time pointed
out TO the government that the
early reduction in farm machin-
cry production was too drastic
for the needs of the food pro-
duction program.
Despite our desire to reach
higher goals we are still ham
pered by difficulties In obtain
ing critical materials and by
lack of manpower In certain
I areas"

Jeep Operation Easy

If YOU are one of those who
are cycling a jeep in their post
war dreaming. don't worry
about mastering its eight-speed
operation. Only two minutes
will accomplish this feat, ac-
co. ling to Dean A. Walters,
Willys-Overland's director Of
service. who has helped train
more than $4,000 soldiers in the
care and maintenance of the
jeep.
The jeep has three levers
which control its unique gear
shift system, Walters pointed
out. One. the longest of the
three. functions exactly like the
transmission on a regular pas
senger automobile. with three
speeds forward and a reverse.
The second lever controls the
flow OF power to the front
wheels, and the third deter
mines whether the vehicle will
run in the normal passenger
car ratio or in the low-low gear,
similar TO that used by tractors.

Shiny Moses Wanted

Every one knows how women
are always worrying about
shiny noses. But out at Willow
Run, where the giant Liberia
tors are built up and flown
away, they worry about the
lack of shine on noses.
The noses, of course, are not
the women's but the shiny
noses of the planes. Inside the
noses sit the bombardiers and
the gunners and it is absolutely
essential that the noses be
perfectly transparent.
The big problem in bombing
plane construction has been to
keep the noses shiny as the air
craft are assembled. Nicks.
mars and scratches resulted
from accidental contact of the
transparent panels with air
hose. portable light cables or
buttons on workers clothing.
To guard against this, pro-
duction experts masked the
plastic sections with layers OF
paper. secured at the edges
by gummed tape. This took a
good deal of time.
A resin was found which
hardened into a tough film on
contact with air. Now. the
noses are dipped into this resin
or whole assemblies can be
sprayed with an air gun or
brushed on like paint. The film
can be stripped off in sheets
at end of the line.

On the
Business
front
BY WARD SCHULTZ

OF more than ordinary inter-
est to me was an editorial
which I read just the other day.
Entitled IF Legal, Still I'M
wise" it discussed the recent
arrest of r. j. Thomas. head
of the JAW, for violating a
Texas statute which prohibits
the soliciting of union members
without a license from the
state.
II read in part:
apart from the question OF
the Constitutional law involved.
upon which we express no opin-
ion, the Texas statute Is eN-
tremely doubtful from the
viewpoint OF either public policy
or of practical usefulness. IL
cannot be defended as contrib
utIng 10 public order. for
license will not restrain man
bent on melting a riot, while
an unlicensed solicitor OF or
ganlzatiOn membership Is amen
able to other laws IL he does
that.
1.-THE purpose of this law
could be only TO give an officer
OF the state or one OF Its sub
divisions the power To deter
mine what persons shall can
yass Texas for members of an
organization and what members
shall not.
whether or not such a grant
OF authority II rs a matter OF
law an infringement on the
right OF free speech, II could
unquestionably be used TO deny
certain individuals free oppor-
tunity TO express their opinions
In Texas.
I'VE hope the road to appeal
to the Supreme Court OF the
United States IL open.
But II restriction IL legal It's
still unwise."

Largest declines were shown in
the East and part of the central
states area. Last year the beet
industry through the Defense Sup
plies Corp. shipped large volume
of sugar into those territories
when supplies Of cane refined
sugar in the East were low.
With the improvement in Inn
ports of sugar from the Carib-
bean and other producing areas
and a short sugar beet crop in
prospect this year. beet sugar
shipments TO the East have been
discontinued. OPA, which con-
trolls the sugar marketing zones
throughout the country in a series
>of revisions, has gradually reduced
the area of beet sugar distribution
TO practically pre-war limits.
