100000 Added
To JobIess List

A survey completed by the De-
trolt Board Of Commerce dis
closed a drop OF 100000 in the
number of hourly paid workers in
Wayne County factories during
August.
th1S figure represents the net
change in Industrial employment.
Although the number laid off
was greater, many war workers
found employment during the
month in factories doing civilian
work.
Tho survey lists BAG, 900 work
ing on Aug 81 against 1890 one
month earlier.
During the four weeks ending
Sept. /, SS,93S initial unemploy-
mcnu compensation claims were
filed In the county. OF these
about S. 900 represent hourly rate
workers.
Reasons given for the difference
in figures are that women are re-
turning 20 their homes, Old peo-
pie retiring. and young people
returning 20 school, and workers
returning 20 former homes.

the remarkable record OF having
supervised the delivery 10 the
United States and its allies the
staggering total of $29 ,OOO, ,OOO,OOO
IN war products. n
The $2e, 900, 100000 is not the
full total yet, according TO George
Romney, managing director OF the
council. Some contracts still are
in force in automotive plants
The council was an experiment
without precedent in industrial
history. 1t took in 654 manutac-
turing companies throughout the
country. In ii was pooled the
know-how of mass production
which had built the auto industry
into the largest in the world.
IDEAS EXCHANGED
The council included big bust
ness and little business. Ideas
were exchanged and voluntary CO
operation replaced the bitterest oi
competition. Secrets once locked
in corporation safes were tossed
on the table for the use Of all.
That this. cooperation was ef'

duction. which is estimated al
about one-quarter Of the nationa
