Civilian Goods Production Hit by Cutbacks In 1952
Fleischmann and Defense Mobilizer Charles E. Wilson warned Congress that civilian production in the first quarter of 1952 will be moderately lower than late 1951 as rearmament accelerates. He cautioned steel copper and aluminum supplies may fall short of estimates, with scarce metals facing an acute shortage in the first half of next year. Durable goods imports could drop about 11 or 14 percent, though refrigerators stoves and TVs should remain adequately stocked. Auto output projected at 930,000 to 950,000 units, aided by existing inventories.
