This Week In Defense Undersecretary of War Pattersor in a speech before the Los Angelei Poet of the Army Ordnance Associ ation, said last week that "the de fense stiuation is not nearly so black as some people try to paint it." Mr Patterson said the United States ii trying to do in 18 months what Ger many accomplished in seven yean and what Britain "is still struggling to accomplish after four years" and added: "We shalh^do the job and it will be done in record time. We shall be hitting our stride sooner than we had hoped to do?in most instances a lot sooner. In many instances we have hit it already. In several we hit it ahead of time." Major Genreal C M Wesson, Army Chief of Ordnance, told an Army Ordnance Association Chap ter meeting in Birmingham. Ala bama that "in point of time we are at least six months ahead of our record in the World War. In con tracts placed we are at least 500 per cent . . (ahead)." Later in the week the War De partment issued a statement that 38 firms fulfilling individual construc tion contracts on 31 projects in var ious parts of the Nation are on or ahead of schedule and Undersecre tary Patterson said that reports of rearmament delays due to labor trouble were "exaggerated" and that he had no recommendations for "co ercive or compulsory" legislation to curb defense strikes. Sub-contracting I'rged ?opM Engineer Morris Cook this week made public a state ment, issued by an NDAC-called conference of industrial engineers, urging increased farming out of de fense contracts The statement said that "owners and managers of small er plants have not appreciated the possibility that their facilities would and'-should be fully engaged in de fense production" and recommend ed that each prime contractor "set up a group with his own organiza tion to specialize in the handling of sub-contractors." The statement also urged that sub contractors who are too small to af ford the hiring of technical assist ants obtain the aid of either local or national organizations "to help them apply the best management and shop practices." "A great part if not all of the man ufacturing machinery of the country, regardless of age, can be brought into use," Mr. Cook said Secretary ?jf the Navy Knox sent a letter to Commandants of all Nav al Districts, Navy Yards. Navy Sta tions. and all Bureaus of the Navy Department and Marine Corps Head quarters "To emphasize . . . tin- im portance of . . . 'sub-contracting' or farming out' if the Navy is to meet the continually increasing demands that afe bemg^ made upon it." "All hands must come to a fuller realization of the gravity of the sit uation and local consideration or de sires for ideal equalization of work loads must be sacrificed, if necessary, in the interest of expediting national defense." the letter said Latest Addition* To The Enterprise Mailing List Listed among the recent additions to the Enterprise mailing list are the following: Daniel Gardner, Williamston; O.
