U S Radio Plants Ordered To Cut Output To Public
The war production board ordered radio and phonograph makers to slash civilian output by 45 percent for large firms and 35 percent for smaller plants over the next 90 days. Major companies will switch to near 100 percent production for military contracts including field radios for 185000 planes and 120000 tanks. Small sets to be used in civilian devices will face fewer tubes and sockets. Supplies aim to cover repairs of existing civilian radios.
