Way Found 10 Combat
Some A-Bomb Effects
BY the Assoeiotsd Press

LOUISVILLE. KY. Oct. A.
Medical science has found way
to combat some of the effects of
atomic radiation.
The discovery was explained in
detail yesterday BY Brig. Gen,
Ebert DeCoursey. who said it m
wolves the successful transfer of
blood platelets" from a health
body to one affected by radia-
ton.
Gen. DeCoursey, director of the
Armed Forces Institute of Pa
thology, explained that platelets
are clotting agents produced in
the bone marrow. Without them,
a patient would bleed to death.
In case of an atomic attack,
radiation would destroy the plate
lets and prevent the marrow's
ability to produce platelets. The
results. said Gen. DeCoursey
would be a plastic anemia or q
breakdown Of blood cells.
He told the Kentucky State
Medical Association convention
that with the new platelet treat
ment. chances are half Of those
victims Of an attack would be
saved. AS yet, there have been
no attempts to try the treatment
on humans.
The process was the work of

bored simultaneously and with
great precision.
We are so short of machine
tools that the Government is ne
gotiatlng with two former enc
mics, Japan and Germany, to help
make up our shortages where they
have the capacity.
Machine tools and skilled men
are defense productions chief bot
tlenecks, according to Defense Mo-
billzer Charles E. Wilson.
Shortage May Increase.
1t is expected that. as defense
production mounts. the relative
shortage will increase. Men in
industry and in Government fig
ure the worst period will come
IN the latter part of next year
or early in 1853. After that, ma
chine tool production will be high
enough to work off the backlog
of orders and the critical ma
ture of the problem should abate
People remember the thou
sands of machine tools left after
World War II and stored for. just
such an emergency. What about
these tools?
They have been and are being

Those charged with response
bility for production of defense
weapons are facing a modern ap-
Iplication of Benjamin Frankin's
Saying about the disaster-laden
possibilities Of shortages.
But today. instead of horseshoe
nails it is machine tools.
Ben Franklin's Poor Richard
said: For want of a nail the
shoe was lost; for want of a shoe
the horse was lost, and for want
Iof horse the rider was lost"
The nightmare of today's de-
Ifense build-up is: For want of q
machine to bore holes in metal
the engine was lost; for want OF
an engine the tank Cor airplane)
was lost. for want of tank the
battle was lost. And loss of a bat
tie means rows of white crosses on
Ia grassy hillside.
Machines Vary Greatly.
The machines that bore holes
in metal. cut metal or mill it
are machine tools. They may
vary from the lathe with which
most people are familiar. to the
huge Bullard boring machine.
The lathe operator fixes in it
a piece of metal which is revolved.
Against this spinning metal he ap-
plies cutting tool which gradu-
ally reduces the metal to the
size and shape desired. The gil
gantic boring machine, on the
other end of the scale. may be

Thieves Busy in Winter,
Auto Owners Warned
By the Associated Press

Car owners today were reminded
officially that auto theft appears
to follow a season trend ano
usually takes an upturn in the
cold months.
FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover
said in a statement that statis-
tics for the past five years show
December leading in such thefts
for two of the years and Octo-
ber. January and April at the
top during the other three. The
low months were June, July and
August.
Mr.. Hoover asserted that over
the years more than 80 per cent
of all stolen cars are recovered,
but he said the offense continues
to be not only a nuisance, but
source of staggering loss to
car owners in damaged or wrecked
vehicles.
He suggested special care in
keeping parked cars locked, avoid
ing exposure of packages or lug
gage in parked cars. and the least
possible use of dark streets for
night parking.

tools, amounting to several bill
lion dollars in value, was set up
to provide tools for special pur-
poses and was not intended to
meet all-out mobilization needs.
The industrial equipment section
Of the Air Materiel Command
has been custodian of many OF
them.
Some time ago Air Force con-
tractors were invited to select
machine tools they needed from
the depots at Marietta. Ga, and
Omaha, Nebr. The tools are sup
piled on a loan basis.
Central Inventory Set Up.
In another step. the Munitions
Board set up a central inventory
of Government-oWned tools not in
use to help break production bot
tlenecks. Where a contractor for
one of the armed services is
blocked by lack of a machine
tool, the central inventory office
locates the needed tool: and if it
is available. it is supplied.
The General Services Admins
tration has worked out plans to
hasten the production of new
tools. One procedure is to place
pool orders for new tools of the
type recommended by the Nation
al Production Authority. If a con-
tractor needs some of the tools
thus ordered, the manufacturer
supplies him and gets paid. Tools
not taken that way are acquired
by GSA and held against future
needs.
Under this plan GSA has enter
ed into contracts with 81 manufac-
turers for 9,454 tools valued at
$152 million. Forty additional con-
tracts are under consideration in
Evening star., 1951-10-04

about the industry that built those
tools? Can it not build enough
now?
In, the first place, the industry
lis not the same. With big reserve
of tools in storage after World
War II hanging over the industry
some tool builders figured that the
future was bleak. About a fifth of
the companies in the field turned
to other products or went out of
business.
Secondly. when the United
States entered that war, the tool
industry was booming. For two
years it had been working at high
speed supplying tools to make
weapons ordered by those fighting
the Nazis and then for our own
defense buildup. Now, too, the in
dustry remembers the bust that
followed the World War II boom.
If the tool builders go out on the
limb of expansion now. they fear
another reconversion period.
Clay Bedford. assistant Defense
Production Administrator, put the
total cost of machine tools needed
Iat $3.7 billion. He broke down
the figures this way: OF this total,
the purchase of $2.5 million worth
will be financed by the military,
an additional ST. billion worth will
be financed by private industry
and about 5000 million worth are
tools now existing that will have
to. be rebuilt.
Additional Costs Estimated.
Another breakdown of this $3.7
billion figure is this: The cost of
machine tools to get the Nation
ready to face an attack is 81, ,480.-
900 900. After that. to set up the
production lines to fight an all
out war with the materiel flowing
off those lines means an addi-
tional $2,220, 100000 worth Of
tools.
Government officials put the
present backlog of machine tool
orders at $1,370,0 100000. This is
more than two years production
of the industry at its present rate
of turning out about $3.50 million
worth Of tools q year.
Shortage Of Highly Skilled.
There is a shortage of highly
skilled mechanics. The industry
complains that 1t will hire a learn
er at $3.50 an hour and in a
month or two a new defense plant
may hire him away as a lathe
operator at $1.90. AS production
is increased it is feared the man
power shortage will become more
acute.
The World War II stockpile Of

Machine Tool Shortage Is Considered Nightmare of Defense BudUp


ivolving more than 10000 tools

Ready to Help Financing.
! GSh also is ready to advance
tool builders 80 per cent of the
value of the orders where the
manufacturer is unable to obtain
priva.e financing at reasonable
terms Government-guaranteed
loans for working capital and to
finance expansion also are avail
able.
Machine tool builders are given
special priority assistance in OBJ
tanning components. Price levels
have been set which Offset the
higher costs which the tool
builders face.
There is a valuable Offset to the
Shortage uf machine tools-the
ingenuity of those producing for
defense.
Mr.. Wilson, in his quarterly re-
port, related the instance of a
manufacturer who ordered 400
scarce tools. He was told he could
expect deliveries at rate that
would put him II months behind
schedule on his output.
He restudied his requirements
and worked the total of needed
tools down to 70. Then, by modify
ing 1c relatively simple tools that
were available, he eliminated the
need tor that many complex tools.
That brought the total down to
so, ani to get these the Govern
ments can help him.
Mr.. Wilson pointed the moral.
"As was shown in World War II,
there is no limit to the extent
that American industry can i'm
lprovise to find ways out of what
may lnok Ike hopeless situations.
