REC0NvERSI0N
PROSPECTS
BRIGHT

"Reconversion prospects throughout
the nation are bright Oscar A. Baar-
son, Helena WPB district manager,
stated today upon returning from
district managers conference n
Washington, d. c. "a roundup OF
views from every quarter indicates re-
conversion procedure is making prog
ress However, the nations first and
foremost production objective will be
to meet military programs in the Pa
cific on schedule"
In Washington Mr. Baarson met
with J. A. Krug, chairman of the War
Production Board, and James A. Fol
ger, vice chairman for field operations
of WPB, and other top-ranking WPB
officials.
Mr.. Krug told the district managers
that while victory in Europe has re-
lieved many production problems,
there will be increasing need for GER
tain items in fighting the Pacific war.
Mr.. Krug also pointed out that the
aim of speedy reconversion will be
to stimulate employment of workers
affected by cutbacks.
"The latest munitions schedules call
for a total production in the next IL
months just short of AZ billion dol
lars" Mr.. Krug said By the second
quarter of next year, output will be
down to a 38-billion dollar annual
rate, more than $50 below the rate
achieved in March, the last month of
full production for a two-front war.
"The reduction is a large one, but
the remaining program is also large.
And the cuts will not hit all parts of
the program equally by. any means.
Output of ammunition and bombs is
scheduled to decline very little. AT
the other end of the scale, guns and
fire control drop to less than half the
recent rate by the end of this year,
and to little more than one-fourth of
the March peak by mid-1946," said
Mr.. Krug. A substantial recovery of
European equipment will be made.
Mr.. Krug also declared that "a
square deal and fair deal" is needed
for small business as the nation adj
justs itself to the needs of one
front war and resumes a growing CIV
ilian production. Positive assistance
is being given to the small independ-
ent producer in the reconversion pc
riod by WPB", Mr.. Krug stated.
1t should be clear to everyone that
as the Japanese war continues there
will be some items that will be in
tight supply. Others may develop
later with war needs. AS labor be-
comes more available, it is expected
