What Uncle Sam Has Done Since He Entered World War
A Washington dispatch details U S military material production since April 1. Army ordnance contracts amount to 500 million dollars for rifle ammunition and more than 125 million rounds produced in a single month by one plant. Ten plants, including government and private facilities, now staff large cartridge output. The United States holds a reserve of over one billion small arms rounds for training troops in Europe. Projectiles for artillery total about 65 million units, with prices per shell ranging from about 19 to 25 dollars unloaded, while more than 400 million pounds of explosives are in production. Expansions include two new smokeless powder plants adding 1 25 million pounds daily capacity. Output now four to five times what was supplied to allies before entry.
