Early &lid inco!lpl ete expreeaions of op1.n1on on the President • a IJlMCh l.ndicate that reactions vary widely, but the ...ajor1 tor approv11
declaration ot the eD~erg..,ey, the toraign policy, and the attitude toWRr<l
wor k stoppages . llany toer tnat the Congress will now play a oinor role.
Concern about the danger of innation ia again oounting. Thia new
wave ot apprehension has largely been cauaed by the rapidity with "hich
wac• increaaas are sprea41ng. It 1a felt that tho price structure cannot
long withstand a continuinG trend o! this sort. llost ot the cor.aentators
believe that an aid to the prevention of innation r.ould be a substantial
cut in this new purchasing power by broadanin11 of the income tax baae.
tba:y !eel that in the lona run, reduction o! income by ~· ~"ill work
leu hardship than reduction by increased coat of living. For the past few weeks there has bem growing concern about ehor~
ages ot steel, aluminlllll, zinc and otber materials. 114n,Y of the cOClllllf)rltat.ore
still believe these shortages should be roet , whenever poaaible, largely b:y
reduction ot civilian cons~r.>ption rather than by unlimited plant expansion,
thouall the nu-w.r ot those -.bo hold this view 1e probabl¥ lees than at the
time of tbe tiret D.mn report. '!he ujorit;y, however, appears to bold the
vi .. that the alma or the defense progran are now eo great that a conaidel'
able degree of both plant oxpanaion and reducti on of civilian cona\Ullption
will be necuaar;y. Recently, and for t.be first ti.coe s1J1ce t.be s tart of the defenee

OEI/ERAL - The Sil!Ml Corps now hlls under contract all 70 criti cal items of oquiprnent aprrovod for purchase on tho l', Y. 1941 procurement program (excludint the Fifth Supplemontal program) .
During the week ended J.:ay 24, deliveries 1fero received on 25 of t hese items and one contract ns coaoueted, Present schedules call !or peak dellvori ee 1n the o:mths o! ~. Jwle, July, Allj;Wit and SepteJ:ber or tb1a year, althouah deliveries of several important iteN will not peak until later 1n the year.
Twenty critical items are behind scheduled deliveries, one having been oli.minated frorn the delinquency liot duri.ng the past week , The reJ:l&inl.ns ita~:~~~
are either on or ahead or a<:hedules, ll'hile dolinquencios porsist, 1n some caeea quantities behind schedule have been reduced considerAbly by deliveries received c!ur1nG the past two weeks . The cost notable cause o! delinquencies is a shortat• of raw • terials, principally alll!:li.nuc and brass . A short.qe of cinor parte or acceuories is holding up delivery or some il:lportant ita.,., the DSjor co~q»nente or which have boon d.elivered a ccordin(; to schedule,
The Fift h Suppler.»!nto.l program, approved on April S and revised April 29, increases quanti tieo or cri t ical i temu to be pr ocured and aloo includes several new items of equiJlment recentl,y standardized. Ament these are three new P'll \'Chicular radio set s, which will replace, to a mjor extent, sets previouel,y used in l ight and J:JCdiWll tanka, and a new radio direction finder,
Due to chnnges in a1rcra1't )l1'0CUI'Cotnt under the Fifth Supplcoento.l progru, i t was necessary to revise t he aircraft sienaJ, equipoont pregr= or the Si£nal Corp:s. This revi:sion has boon col:lpl.oted and purchnse of several 1tema has been initiated, A108rdi"G or the Njor portion of these contracts must await completion of necessary purchnse details . It appears probabl e thAt a radical change 1n scheduled deli very peako '11'111 follow let ti"G of larae contract& under this program, llo new i terns of aircraft equipment were added, alt.housh the new procram includes si,enal equiprnent for 8, 875 3dditional aircraft,
LABg! DIFfiCULTIES - Since the aettleoent or the strike at the Allen D. cardwell plant 1n Brookl,yn, Si;;nal Corps production is not beinG seriousl,y retarded by labor disputes . At present, only two companies, having direct eont r ac ts with the S1enal Corps, are closed by s trikes - Feiner t.

The delivor1 ot surgical instruments continuos to be unsatisf actory . W.bor t roubles coupled wit h lack of basic materials and inability ot those companies not set up to produce their own forgings to procure them from the usual sources ot supply i s leading to & great er number of contractors beine behind schedule .
The Washington Post , June J , reports : "In Cleveland , the Picker X-ray Corporation plant , eeid to be the only maker of portable X-ray units for the An~ ~edicnl Corps , was shut by a strike of a C. I. 0. United ~lectrical, Radio and Machine Wor«ers union local. hbout 200 employes failed to report for work. The union has been seeking higher wages, but a eom?anY spokesman eaid the deadlock was reached after the comp&n1 rejected demands for a closed shop and t he union refused to acce;>t a 'no strike ' and nrbitrat.ion clause 11 •
Last week a strike wa~ re~orted at the Shampaine Company, St. Louis, ~liosouri , which has a contract with the l.ledicnl Depar tl!lent for Operating Tables. Other l abor troubles are threatened in t he Coorge P. Pilling Son Coopany, Philadelphi a, Ponnsylvania, manufacturers of surgical i nstMJJ!Ients, and in the Rospital Supply COillpany, New York , N. Y. The latter comoany hee n~erous contracts for Hosoital Steriliters ot vsrious types and sizes.
During the week ending May 23, E. R. Squibb and Sons, Brooklyn, llew Yor<, made final delivery of 42p00 tins of anesthetic ether on a contract for~~ which has been delinquent since february 27, 1941.
Of a1xt1- eight. selected items as or l!ay 2J, eight een are ahead of schedule, t hirty• C1vo on schedule and fifteen behind schedule. This is a vory eati sf sctor1 condition and deliveries continue t o be made steadily.
According to a ewnmary of Weekly Vital Statistical Report No. 21 , t:.ay 29, 1941, published in tho office of tho Surgeon General, U. S. A~, the percent age of sick tor tho Military Service in the United States was ) .46. This percentage shows 2.95 remaining in hospitals and .51 in quarters.

OEt!ERAL - The procuro.,ent of signal equipment shol<s an appreciabl e Lls behind estimated delivery schedules, althoU£h qWllltit ies of indi·lidual itCJ"''s delinquent are, in so1:10: instance~ , rnther snoll. The number or del.1.n.''"" ... .. l.a.s been incrcasine and has reached a pOint 11hore 65% of the
criticAl il.ern.q on lfhi ch deliveries are duo arc behind schedules . The production of signal equipoent is l.Brflely an assembly proposi
tion; complete items nre ~Mde up or a multiplicity of por ts obtnl.ned from various sourceu. There a.re nW'iCrou!l instances 'Where maJor componenta havo been received and n shortaee or minor port s or accessories i s responsible for tho delay in delivery of the compl ete items.
Si&nnl equipment, particularly radio, requires considerabl e quant.l.ties of critical raw materials. Production is subject to the availability or theoe materials llhich include aluminum, braso and z,inc . 1/any delinquenci eo are t rnceable to tho priority ratings assigned to the contractors. These ratin,;o have not been sufficiently hi(;h to permit the obt.al.ni.oe of necoosary materials. Substitutes have been authorlzed, in some cnsen, but for the mos t pert correction involves chango in pri ority ratitllJ to obtain the r equired material nt an earlier date. Aggressive notion is being taken and a definite inprove:'ltmt in this si tua tioo is anticipated in the very near future .
Deliver ies of aircraft sio;nal equipment a re mkint: a I'!Uch be tter shorl111: than are those or orcanizn tional c round equiprnent. This difference is primarily due to the hieher preference rati ncs assigned to aircra f t equipment. It io n~tenorthf that there nre no instances where procurellXlnt of oi(lrull. oqnipr.~ent for aircraft is insufficient to meet aircraft requirements.
