Doubled Payroll After War

According to the postwar plans of
st. Louis Monsanto Chemical Co.
the payroll after the war will be
doubled in size.
MonSanto, in line with American
industry's recent pledge to increase
opportunity for all to earn and buy
more after the war, has already
gone about surveying markets and
developing new products so that
when the green light comes on after
victory, they'll be all set. This will
mean an expenditure of some $50
million in new plantS-at least SIS
million Of it to be spent the first
two years after the end of the war.
Employment. which was $500 in
1889, is expected to provide jobs for
1000.
Explaining the situation to Mon
Santo employees, F. j. Curtis, vice.
president in charge of postwar at
Monsanto, says: I'VE have studied
all our long range products from
the standpoint of our potential
sales :. We have calculated how
many jobs We think we can provide
in the postwar period if these de-
velopments go through"
Magic Of Chemistry
Monsanto's postwar contribution
to the nations economic welfare
comes from the magic of chemistry,
now supplying the war, but with
with civilian use afterward. That
means there won't be huge recon-
version task.
On the MonSanto roster of post
war products are spectacular dis
coyeries. It's glasslike thermoplastic,
for example, is first yet to hold its
shape in boiling water. Now used in
radar, radio and other military
gear. It will be a standby for auto
mobiles. architecture, aircraft, bust

other fields.
