War Production Drive Amid Global Conflict Gains and Strains
In New York, War Production Chairman Nelson warned the United States has not yet won the production battle, despite outpacing Axis nations in total effort. Vice President Wallace forecast record war material output, with WPB funds surpassing 23 billion dollars by April 3. Nelson urged subcontracting, staggered vacations, and labor mobility while Me Nut promoted a nine member manpower commission to maximize voluntary mobilization. National Employment Week was proclaimed to train and employ more women and older workers, and Fair Employment Practice ordered large contractors to stop racial or religious discrimination. The War Front reported Stimson signaling near readiness for offensives, dramatic bombing raids against Japanese targets, and the loss or damage of ships, with MacArthur naming staff for the Southwest Pacific command. Lend-Lease aid exceeded 3 billion by end of March. Russia shipments surged in March. Laval’s pro-German leadership led to Vichy cautions. The Army outlined 32 new divisions this year, doubling the Medical Corps, and forming the Tank Destroyer Command with summer training in Texas. Furloughs of 10 days may be granted after induction per local board needs.
