Durable goods manufacturing, where much of the state's war production is concentrated, declined 1.4 per cent in February as readjustment of production schedules in certain lines continued. Non-dur-! able goods industries, however, recorded increases in both employment and payrolls, the largest increase occurring in the chemicals group.

oy
WASHINGTON, March 18 (U. BP). —A “revolutionary” new naval scout
near future” at the Columbus plant of the Curtiss-Wright Aviation Corp; Rep. Melvin J. Maas, (R. Minn.), revealed today. i Maas, ranking Republican member of the house naval affairs committee, disclosed plans for the new plane in releasing an aviation subcommittee report on Curtiss-Wright production. The report was based on a recent surprise visit to the plant. The subcommittee found present day conditions at the plant highly satisfactory, but blamed the navy as well as management for the company’s slowness in getting into production of the so-called Helldiver, a navy dive bomber. : yo “This new scout plane is a vast—
=
anything we have,” Maas said. “It is going to revolutionize scouting for battleships and cruisers.” Maas, who is a pilot himself, said production of the new ship will necessitate some plant expansion. The plant also is experimenting on the previously publicized BTC dive-torpedo bomber, which is expected to be an improvement on the Helldiver, the report said, However, it was pointed out, “volume production‘on the SC (Scout Plane) is not as imperative as that of the Helldiver, for the SC is based on cruisers and battleships, which will ‘not carry more than two or three.”
Maas revealed that the report has already brought action from the navy to release the backlog of planes which the subcommittee

a backlog resulted,” he “The
training school was the worst impediment. Naval officials ‘informed me yesterday that they are transferring their school and are assign ing “more. ferry pilots to facilitate deliveries.” SE Curtiss-Wright now “bids fair to be one of our best producers,” Maas declared, but “criticism in the initial instance was tified.” a, ————————————— _ SCHRICKER TO SPEAK
