Electronics Workers Are War Asset
Dr. W R G Baker of General Electric said the electronics industry can meet future military needs if production is converted with sound planning. He argued trained television and radio workers form a skilled labor reservoir, and expansion plans will provide facilities for military equipment. Baker warned curtailment could push workers into other fields and slow military output. He cited plant reopenings and new facilities for germanium parts, two-way radios, and a 100000 square foot southern plant, all adaptable to civilian or military production.
