War Production Cuts Forecast for 1944 Civilian Goods
The Associated Press reports the Office of War Information previews a sharp cut in military equipment but forecasts 1944 civilian goods production will fall to about 2,000,000 electric irons and 50,000 halibuts with some stoves and refrigerators. Major arms output will rise, while civil goods curtailments are not planned unless the European war ends by midyear or Allied advances stall. Navy reductions are offset by far larger war vessel builds for 1944. Eggs are about two thirds water.
