enbacker on some points.
"IXhen Capt. Rickenbacker
prophesies a long war, l agree
10 the extent that we must plan
upon the likelihood OF several
years OF war" Downey said.
However, I can not agree that
the workers-the people-srs
not already doing n magnificent
war production Job.
"Our shipbuilding, plane and
ornaments program calls for u
to out-produce every other ma
ton in the world combined. This
we will do by virtue OF the ener-
getic toll of American workers
/ and the ability OF our technicians
/, and business men,"
