At the start of his career Citroen had a small gear cutting shop with employes. He was superintendent, chief of all departments, salesman, and president.

His first year's business totalled 15,000 francs (then His fourth year showed a turnover of 100,000 francs (then 000). At his death he was doing daily business of more than 000,000 francs (currently 600.) His Genius Tells It was in 1908 that Citroen was charged by a group of friends with reorganizing the Mors Automobile Company. His organizing genius became apparent, for the production of the company jumped to 200 cars a day before outbreak of World War. Meanwhile Citroen had extended interests to Moscow, where he organized a gear plant, and to Austria-Hungary, where he built a plant to handle the Austrian, Hungarian, German, and Balkan trades. At the outbreak of the war he was mobilized as a lieutenant of artillery.

He at once reorganized army postal delivery system. Then he anticipated the enormous demands on munitions which the war was to make. He proposed to construct a mass production factory shells. While in Great Britain the shortof shells for the Army was neara scandal that was to take David Lloyd George into the Prime Ministhe French War Ministry approved Citroen's project and within short time a new factory on the outskirts of Paris was producing shrapnel shells a day. Citroen realized his project by making important purchases of machinery and materials in America organizing along American lines.

factories served as a model for Allied plants. His works finally were producing 55,000 shells a day employing 13,000 persons. The young manufacturer was called on frequently to straighten out problems of supply and production. was he who mapped out the coal fuel supply and -designed the rationing system for the civil population expressed in bread and sugar cards. The war over, Citroen went back his automobile He conceived a project for a ten-horsepower to be sold cheaply- as cars go here- and popularize motoring with public.

In 1919 his shell factories were reorganized into a chain production system for cars and he put out 30 day. In 1924 the figure reached a day and, with constant improvements in appearance and operhe produced more than 1,000 the peak. LEIBOWITZ TO SPEAK Lawyer Will Give Talk on Crime Samuel S.
