Kaiser Asks
Fixed Price
Declares Cost Plus
Competition Barrier

PORTLAND, Ore. Sept. 30
Efforts are being made by the
Henry j. Kaiser interests TO have
uncompleted portions of existing
contracts. which are based on cost
plus fixed fees, or price minimum
arrangements. changed TO fixed
price contracts.
Edgar +. Kaiser. vice president
and general manager of the Port
land Vancouver area maritime
shipyards. says that he and his
father, Henry j.. believe that
continuation of free enterprise is
based on competitive bidding.
Throughout the period of
wartime shipbuilding, cOmpeti-
tive pricing has been difficult
to attain because there was no
cost history for the ships VIC
were building" said Kaiser.
Designs were being changed
continually to meet wartime re-
quirements and the shortage OF
manpOwer resulted I'm regula-
tiOns that had TO be met regard
less of cost.
"Now we have reached a Pc
Rod of stabilized costs and sta
biliZed labor conditions and the
time has come when concerns
that wish 10 be in a position To
build I'm the future must get on
a fixed price basis"

See Machine Tools
Conversion Key
Makers Can't Start
Because Of War Jobs

Machine tools may prove the
big stumbling block to quick
reconversion TO peacetime pro-
duction.
Summing up the dilemma. one
machine tool man remarked:
I'VE went into war unpre-
pared and now we're getting
ready to return to peace I'M
prepared"
Before large mass production
Industries can change back TO
such things as automo-
bileS, refrigerators and washing
they must obtaIWza refa-
lively small number of key
machine tools. General Motors
has stated it needs $500 to 1000
"bottleneck" types before it can
resume production
A survey of half dozen repre-
sentative machine tool builders
in Cincinnati, the Dayton area
Cleveland and Michigan indicates
that these critical tools are not
being built. None of these COM
panies have been able to deliver
a single one for peacetime use.
Moreover, they have been able "a
do only a meager amount OF
engineering work necessary be-
fore their production can begin
1t takes three 10 six months 10
manufacture "a root after engi-
neering work begins.

Give Car Ages

The newest cars in use today

car market by any normal
standards. This creates a stu
alton unique in the automobile
industry.
The survey findings show
that among low priced cars
bought new by present owners.
65 per cent are 1910 OF later
models. 81 per cent earlier than
1910. Among the used cars. 30
per cent of the low priced cars
bought second hand are prior
10 the 1870 vintage Many arc
worn out jalopies that would
have long since gone TO the
Junk pile in normal times,
The situation is only slightly
different in the middle and high
priced field. Here u per cent
of the cars bought new are
1910 or later and IS per cent
are prior 10 1910.

OFFERS SOLUTION

If on the day of final VIC
tory. patriotic citizens would,
as an ultimate gesture of Sacri-
fee, burn their bonds, and to
that extent relieve their govern
ment of debt, they would SIM
pity the postwar future.
Such a fanciful gesture would
tend TO eliminate much of the
current economic nonsense of
treating debt as a national as
set.
In handling the debt, it would
be necessary 10 make il clear
to the public that long-term
bonds are not the same as
liquid funds.
The war debt is too mountain
Gus 10 be cashed in for goods
by all the holders simultane-
OuslV.

Buyer Cautious

The survey indicates that the
public's mood at the present
time is definitely cautious about
quick buying after the war
Asked: IF the first cars
available after the war are
1912 models with only slight
changes. do you think you will
buy one" only 81 per cent say
they will. Slightly more than
a majority of all owners 80
per cent? say they viii wait
rather than buy a modified 1912
model. The public has been fed
diet al industrial miracles
during the war period and they
expect these Improvements 10
be reflected in postwar auto
mobiles. The survey findings
indicate that advertising. sell
ing. publicity and public rela-
tons need 10 be- directed with
this in mind.

riding comes first t33 per cent?,
closely followed by ease OF han

LESS TROUBLESOME

If war had been financed on
a pay-aS-you-go basis. the aft
ermath would be less trouble
some.
In terms OF relinquishing of
current goods and services by
civilians TO government for war
making purposes, the war has
been financed by current sacri-
fee.
If the sacrifice had been re-
corded in financial terms solely
in tax liabilities, business as
usual could be resumed more
readily after the AXIS folds.
But the forebearancc' of civil
ians IN respect TO wartime pro-
duction was not measured in
taxes alone, but also in war
bonds.

Flies Die for Science

Executing $4,000 flies every
day, then raising more flies to
Kill is a routine job in the in
secticide laboratory of the Her
cules Powder Company. In a
chamber designed for the bio
logical and chemical expert
ments scientists are testing
Thanite, toxic agent specified
by the U. S. Army for fly
sprays.
Thanite is'a super-killer de-
Veloped by Hercules chemists
from turpentine and pine oil.
Its discovery greatly relieved
the critical shortage of raw ma
terials used in manufacturing
Insecticides. Imports of both
pyrethrin and rotenone, essen
tial ingredients for most insec-
tlcides, were restricted by the
war.
The Army specified Thanite
for its sprays because of it's
killing power, safety to humans
and livestock, and economy.

THE "SECRET" OF THE
"SECRET WEAPON"

A recent cartoon in the Stock
holm Nya Dagligt Allehanda,
entitled "The Puzzle of the
Secret Weapon" showed Adolf
Hitler deep in conversation
with Reich Marshall Hermann
Goering on the subject of Ger
many's robot bomber.
"Rocket-driven bombs have
existed before" Hitler was rep
resented as saying. "Can we
really continue to call this
weapon secret"
Naturally" Goering replied
1'Its secrecy lies in the fact that
no one, not even we, knows
where it will hit"
