AT AUGUST LEVEL


Although effects Of the strike
were not reflected in the mum.
tions report for September, fig
ures indicated that output held
close to the August level and the
was that production
now is pushing the ceiling But
continued Increases are still re-
ing registered in the category of
the most urgen ly needed
weapons.
Deliveries of mechanical refrig-
orators TO government claimant
agencies were further restricted.
Certificates of transfer are needed
for all but shipboard use. Steel
plate supplies are getting tighter
and deliveries TO warehouse for
future use are being restricted.
CUT FROM so TO 10
Models of wheelbarrows were
reduced from 80 TO 10. More
nickel silver will be available for
use in speetaele-type goggles.
High-grade mica is getting tighter
and steps were taken to conserve
supplies.
More dyestuffs and pigments for
civilian use are in the offing. More
than 10000 motor vehicles were
released under the truck rationing
program during the week. Total
released so far is 1888.
Step-up in production Of cast
iron skillets. kettles, dutch overs
and flatirons for civilian and
military use was permitted.
LUMBER RATE UP
Lumber production went up &c
per cent in August. But the wood
pulp, newsprint and container
situation remained serious. Use
of wooden containers on many
types of goods was further limited
Suggestions were advanced on
ways in which industry can con-
serve transportation in loading
and delivering paper. WPB's print.
ing and publishing divisions took
steps TO alter regulations covering
newspaper inventories, in line
with previous suggestions of the
industry advisory committee.

RELEASE OTHER ITEMS

This writer's guess is that
there will shortly be release OF
other things for civilian use.
Notwithstanding the uni
formly favorable war news,
stock quotations enter Novem-

There are reasons.
Results of renegotiation Of

port diminished net earnings,

Hint Extensive
Reddjustment in
War Contracts
BY b. c. FORBES

From talks with heads OF
large corporations / learn that
important developments, not
publicly reported, are under
way. that extensive read1ust-
ments of war contracts are be-
ing made, that government is
discovering that there has been
considerable oyer-orderlng OF
certain materials and merchan-
disc.
For example. manufacturers
have caught up with copper
needs TO such an extent that
payments OF bonuses 10 high
cost producers are being cur
tailed. Incidentally. this is be-
ing reflected by a decline in
the market value of various
copper shares.
Recently il was revealed that
eggs had been ordered far too
freely. so much so that the
government offered 10 put on
the market quite large quanti-
ties. But. since eggs are per-
ishable. the markets response
was worse than lukewarm.

gineers a comprehensive picture
of heating problems, we are able

fAcKARD was one of the first u. S. automobile
manufacturers to convert to 1000 war produc-
ton.
Long before that fateful December 7th, war
materials were already rumbling off many of our
assembly lines.
AS far back as 1859, the company was begin

the Navy's PIT boats. In 1910 Packard became
the first American company ever to undertake
the building of the famous British Ros-Royce

volume of Packards former greatest year. In
fact, last year Packard built more war engines
than during the entire period of World War |,
when it was the largest producer of the famous
Liberty Motor"
Turning out these current precision war en-
gineS by ma5S-production methods was one of the
toughest war assignments any manufactured
could have been gwen. Each individual part,
though built in large-scale volume, is painstak-
ingIy ''jeweled" to the most exacting standards.
In many instances, tolerances are held to within
a few mRlionth5 of an inchl
Fortunately, precision workmanship like this
is nothing new for Packard. Many of our thou
sands of craftsmen have devoted Their entire
toorking EVes to precision manufacturing.
But it takes more than skill alone to do the
war job that's being done today at Packard :. :.
More than year ago, Packard management
and labor together developed the now-famed
Work to Win" programme plan designed to
speed up machines, not men-to get maximum
output from existing machines and equipment
through even greater efficiency. Since then,
Packard workers have turned in more than
1880 suggestions to improve production. 1000
of these ideas have been put into actual shop

Gas Co. Willing
To Move Tank
Cost Of Airport Project
Set at $4,000 900

The Michigan Consolidated Gas
Co. has always been ready TO CO.
operate with the City Of Detroit
lin the removal of the huge gas
tank adjoining the city airport,
William C. Voolfolk, president OF
the concern, said Saturday.
Removal OF the tank Al one time
was estimated at a cost of nearly
SIP 100000. inclusive OF costs OF
removal of other structures suf-
ficient to permit an airport space
one mile square, he pointed out.
The gas company now renews
its former offer to cooperate if
the city government feels IT wants
to invest more money in the
municipal airport. In any event
removal of the tank would have
TO await termination of World
War III, as neither city nor gas
company has material or man
power 10 effect the removal AT the
present time. Voolfolk stated.
Voolfolk also said:
The gas company did not
build n gas holder near city air
port. We were there first and
the airport was built with full
knowledge of the presence of
our holder"
