C** -J*** Enough to Go Around Now, for the first time in years» both^ farmers and manufacturers can work for the biggest possible yield without thinking about the market. This year they can sell all they can produce. As things look now, this condi* ‘‘ tion is due to keep up for some time, but we can't count on its lasting forever. Certainly nobody ivants a prosperity built on war! So it’s high time that everybody con-^ cerned—and that -is everybody— gave some thought to keeping things running after the war, Vou’re busy, we know. So are we. The important thing right now is seeing that there’s enough ; of everything to go around. But' we’ve been devoting a little atten- ' tion to the problems of the future, too. We feel that the people who have the producing job to do can contribute a lot to the solution of chose problems. And we hope that you, too, busy as you are with growing more food than this country’s ever pro duced, will be turning these problems over in your mind. For if America’s farmers and manufac- turers> working together, can’t find a way to keep the richest country on earth producing enough for everybody, and let the producers make a living in the process—if they can’t, why then, who can?

Plants both large and small have responded to a tremendous production challenge. Converting from peacetime products to war ma terials. meeting the exacting requirements of military specifications, and attaining new pro duction levels have been accomplished effici ently and enthusiatstically. We are proud to share in this accomplishment. With over 800 men in the Services, we. too. are shorthanded these days. But those who remain at their posts in the plant and in the office, on the line crew and on the buses which daily serve thousands of war workers are the more deter mined to aid the common effort against the enemy by maintaining necessary services to in dustrial, agricultural, and civilian life.
