! <• i ■
A special invitation to small manu
facturers of • Chotfan County to at
tend an exhibit of products the Fed
eral Government is buying under its
mtflltalbiltion dollar procurement pro
gram, to be held in Atlanta, Septem
ber 10, 11 and 12 has been extended
by the Armed Forces Regional Coun
cil for the Southeast.
I __ r*
The Council, comprising the Army,
Navy and Air Force, is sponsoring
f the exhibit, which will be held in the
hew exhibit hall of the Atlanta Bilt
more Hotel, so that those firms in
terested in serving as subcontractors
in the fulfillment of government con
tracts may be-afforded first-hand in
formation as to what the United
States is buying from prime contrac-'
•tors and how they might fit into the
procurement picture. The United
States Department of Commerce is
cooperating in the project.
Lieutenant-Colonel Robert R. Kay,
of the United States Air Force, has
, been appointed project officer for the
exhibit with headquarters at 770
Spring Street, Northwest, in Atlanta.
According to Colonel Kay, prime con
tractors who sell goods to the gov
ernment located in a number of sec
tions of the Southeast have engaged
space for the displaying of their goods
k with the result that hundreds of dif
ferent items will be exhibited.
The Atlanta exhibit will constitute
the “greatest single opportunity” for
smaller manufacturers in the region
to discuss the capacity, productivity,
facilities and ability of their own
plants to participate in the govern
ment purchasing activities with rep
resentatives both of prime contractors
as well as the armed services.
“We are not promising any actual
contracts as a result of the exhibit,
but we are confident that it will be
of intrinsic value to many small man
ufacturers in the way of educating
them to just what the government
now wants in its national program of
defense, and just about how they
may be able to participate in the de
fense work,” Colonel Kay said.
Recent figures from the Munitions
Board showed that firms in the
Southeast had sold goods valued at
nearly half a billion dollars from
July of last year to April of this year,
which leaves little doubt as to the po
tentialities of the government’s pur
chase program, it was stated.
