This is true for both the eastern and western sections of the coun 1 try Production authorities say there is nothing to speculation that more war production wall be con centrated on the west coast against Japan After cutbacks will be made according to weapons and I supplies no longer needed regard less of where they are manufac tured West Ports Be Busy The big difference between the east and west coasts will be that I Pacific ports will handle all the outbound war shipping they can and east coast ports will get only the overflow General questions about recon version cannot be answered exactly except in reference to time James Byrnes resigned direc tor of war mobilization and recon version said last weekend that he expects 20 per cent of the war production facilities will be 43' product win De duck jmr duction within a year after day and that most will be on the market Geared To War Needs The War and Navy departments are holding firm to their conten tion that until Japan is beaten the output of American factories must stay geared to the needs of war Along with growing pressure by management to go into peacetime production is a trend by war plant workers to drift into non war jobs The reason may be in part the desire to have a permanent job in hand before the war ends and the labor market is glutted In the four preceding articles we have told of the plans of the joint chiefs of staff for turning the full power of the United States against Japan as soon as possible after vic tory in Europe Those plans will have tremendous meaning to the everyday lives of all for 18 months or two years after Perhaps the best way to explain this is to tell about the "pipeline to the Have Had Two Pipelines We have had two pipelines one to Europe one to the Pacific On the day of victory over Germany one of the greatest single tasks will 1 be to switch the European pipeline around to the Pacific or a while almost everything that has been moving to Gen Eis enhower's armies will go instead to the armies of Gen MacArthur This increased flow from the Unit ed States to the Pacific wijl con tinue at a high level until a sort of secondary pipeline can be'open ed from Europe to the Pacific irst to rush out of the Pacific will be new goods produced in the United States Then out of the secondary pipeline will flow the guns tanks shells planes and all the other things which have not been used up in Europe and which are still useful against the Japan ese There you have the general pic ture as army and navy leaders see it of the need for continued high war production during the first months after Germany's de feat It is not the detailed picture however for as quickly as possible the whole production program will be revamped to fit the particular needs of the Pacific war Requirements Be Different or instance there should be lit tle need for great quantities of the heaviest tanks against light armor Requirements for short range bombers and certain types of fighter planes will diminish This doesn't mean that the workers in plants producing such items be needed The demand for vehicles to re place those lost in Europe will be great Pacific battles will take their toll of ordnance and ammunition If few light and medium bombers are required more long range bombers and carrier borne planes will be needed The army will increase its take of cotton goods for clothing and tents It will need more rockets and rocket launching equipment artil lery and artillery ammunition more heavy duty tires The war worker asks: "When am I going to be out of a Broadly the answer is: "Not for many months yet unless Japan folds up with unexpected speed If you lose your present job another one is HORNADAYS 615 Ave Phone 1499 Orl Wedding LOWERS at MINERAL WELLS 312 Miles City Tuesday Night April 10 Music bv 1 Geo Pitts and His Orchestra Put on your western regalia and come out!
