WIN THE \\ \R The- reassuring iTrodicta-n tiia' oar scmbly lines* are on the way to win Dr war combs' from' an official, of a gre it def manufacturer, who also declares that "t tin grave hour the* machine becomes the pro.*. ; or of people’s right to work and live in a t'-* 1 America." “Eor more than a year since the Presi dent's proclamation of a national emergen cy," says I’anl Garrett, \ ice President of General Motors, "we have been concentrat - ing on the ‘make ready’ stage of our def- nse program. As we enter 1942 there comes t>*.* assurance that materially and psychological ly we have reached, thank God. the v ’em rolling' stage. War production will e ther momentum for the duration, ba : m. up the skill, the courageous • acrifitt!.■■ fortitude of our men in arms." The General Motors official offers sta tistics to suport his confidence in American industry. Already iv World War 11 its pro duction lines have delivered to tie- Gove meat t? 10,000.000,000 worth of v • : . nii'iit, li«' reports. Not that much had oven! been ordered last March. It lvperesents mere ■ than b.uUh.000 man \ car.- o!‘ work. 1’ha! i would build lt> hands ot’ super-highway Lrom coast to coast It would build 200 Boulder dams. “War now is a war ot' iursepower, Mr. Garrett adds. "And industry in this coun try has no equal in production of horse power. Grand Coulee Dam will generate 2.-j 41)0.000 horsepower. But last year the in- j ternal eombus ion engines of General Mo tors alone bulked 210.unit,ooO horsepower. That is 100 Grand Coulee dams." Visualize from that the potential pro duction for all of industry. 'i OUR P \RT OI THE PI BI.IC DEBT Vou. your sweetheart, or maybe it is the wife, and children, each are responsible j for sd21 of tie national debt, that bring the per-eapita debt load of every inhabitant of the continental United States.
