take a look at them. It is pretty sit.t-
jil,. to build a plant Man\ enjritte« r-
ing firms, with exfHMienced contrac-
tors can knock together i plant for
turning out anything from ashcans
to alrplaius in a comparatively short
time. But that is nlv the h'-ginniiijj
of th . probli m. In the first pluee,
sint> i' takes <o much time to build
machim to.>|s, they have to be order-
id well in advance. But even so, a
structure is nO| a plant Hist «> cause
there is a building with somt. mach-
inery insitl', A plant i~ about as tis>
ful as handles on a pyramid if there
are no facilities to tr 't the raw ma-
terials to th ■ plant, and get the fin-
ished product from th<- plant *o
where it will do somebody some good.
So, although there is plenty of room
to put tip plant- in this country. tl < •
must b,, located along lines of trans-
portation and, more important than
this, they must be locatfi s( me place
; ( tween til forests, mi' ■ -. and fields
where the raw materials o iginate.
ami the Army and Maw Supply D -
posits where the finished products
are going. Otherwies,. w,. will hav<>
our transportation lines tied up in
knot carting half proce-s.d materials
from Springfield. Massachusetts, 'o
Springfield. Ohio, t.> yrt nut No '!0
screwed on and then have them go
back to Sch nectady t'> have nut N' v

That w hv th,. National P- fen e
Advi-.c • C. nni;;s« can't aoj ..ve
.iu-t anv old tdant located in any o'd
place. This program ha to have
rhyme and reason.
Then, as we have discovered, theie
ij. the item of labor. It is all \«>ry v."II
to talk about u :ng surnlti, labor but
a man who h an evnert on turning
hi.r--. ho<iv< • int. ;-lue niay not
the handiest man in run: ing final

engines Theref..in buiiding plant*
arid fatililies, arrangements have to
! • made for -••curing the n« ee- -arv
(xperienced manfK>w!*r to run them.
A pi arentl.v. Ameiici ha Inked t
probb m of inf". hangeability of
machine parts, but . have not madf
as much progress on the int« r< hang *-
ability of skilled workmen. The Na-
tional Defence Advisory Commission
is at work on this problem at t*ie
present tin-'.-. As was suggested re-
cently, perhaps the man skilled in
dumping hot bread from the pans a-
they come out of the bake oven can
also usf his skill in dumping hot ca-t-
ings out of their mold".

There ha^ lieen <iuite a bit of d^
ru^sion a to why riot, turn over th
automobile factories to manufactur-
ing airplanes. There are a couple of
reasons why thi1- would not work <o
well. In th<* first place, the country
still ne<-d" automobiles for private j
use, and in the second plac<. we are
going to need plenty of automobiles
and truck units for our national de- I
fen.se program. And when it comes
to < uipment, automobile factories will
need the new machine tools anyway |
because thP machine tools they have, j
by and large, a--*- -< t up to handle
automobile size units, and automo. j
biles turn «>ut HK) horsepower, while:
aiiplane plants turn out 1.000 horsr-j
power. Therefore, they would hav !
to wait for the machinery before they I
really could tart production. But the .
automobile industry is turning out
a great numlx-r of umall pi« cc ■ for the
aircraft industry. The companie. .p«
cializing in the manufacture of valves, :
fur instance, can turn out airplane
value n addition to tin n pre-, i t au-
tomobile valves.
miethtng to mak< th,
nt' go around. I'herfore,
iate power must be provided.
