[Post-War Economic Picture | | TAT Far Better Than Anticipated

By JAMES M. HASWELL Times Special Writer WASHINGTON, March 29.—This is the spring—remember—that was to see the nation’s economy struggling to reorganize itself after the war, with 8,000,000 to 10,000,000 idle workers standing around face tory gates waiting for “reconversion.”

As for Russia, neither Soviet nor

American officials seem interested in an air pact at the moment. They discussed aviation before the Chicago Air conference in 1944, which Russia refused to attend, and copies of the Chicago agreements were sent to Moscow by the U. 8. as host country. No Action Taken The Russians said they would study them but never took any action and neither country has brought up the matter since, according to officials here. The “U. 8.-French air pact signed Wednesday was the latest in -almost a score of recent agreements which give political reality to an aircraft manufacturer's slogan that technically no place in the world is more than 60 hours from home. In the agreement with France, the U. S. obtained landing rights at ‘13 points in France proper and in her -Caribbean, African and Far East territories. Previously Britain had granted us landing rights at 18 points throughout the British empire. In both countries’ territories we got commercial use of air bases built by the U. 8. during the war.

Agreements Due To fill in the air route pattern further, agreements are scheduled to be signed. this week with Greece and Belgium and soon thereafter with Egypt and Iraq. Negotiations are in progress with Australia, New Zealand and India and soon will be started with South Africa. Before the war Pan American Airways had obtained landing rights on its own initiative throughout Latin America and in several other areas. In agreements signed since the Chicago conference, the government has obtained landing rights for U. 8. carriers in Canada, Ice-

Mr. Sarnoff

airborne television heralds some« thing brand new in military strate

egy, the navy says. battle actions back to headquarters, where commanding officers heretofore had to rely on verbal or written accounts.” An entire beachhead, for example, could be relayed by television to show the actual scene of battle to the officers controlling the operation. The navy will give this system its big operational test at Bikini when the atom bomb is exploded on the fleet. > Its successful development was recently revealed to the public for the first time in a demonstration at Anacostia naval air station. Dr. V. K. Zworykin, RCA television expert,- is credited with originating the idea of airborne television in 1934. It was originally planned for use in guiding radio-controlled flying torpedoes. Here are some of the new uses now being planned for this new television equipment, according to RCA experts: In factories and large scale production enterprises it could be used as a means of co-ordinating activities and the means of watching and controlling from a distance manufacturin, , processes and operations that mi t otherwise be inaccessible or too perilotis to man. Advertise Scenic Spots It could be used as a means of advertising tour enterprises or other scenic spots to prospects by showing direct views. It could be used in police traffic control. A television-equipped police plane could keep traffic headquarters posted on exact conditions in such areas and arrangements could be completed quickly

will be able to see actual reproduce tions of spot news David Sarnoff, RCA president,

And the use of

It can flash

ing or other traffic control means. Hazardous exploration ard scientific expeditions would be greatly aided by preliminary views transmitted from ‘a plane. On spot news coverage Sarnoff forsees: “Airborne television will open the way for coverage of events with instantaneous transmission of eyewitness views#at the scene and at the exact time of their occurrence. This coverage can include fires, floods, train wrecks or other happenings of public interest, and the way is opened for development of the ‘walkie-lookie,” a light-weight, portable television camera with which a reporter might cover street scenes as readily as he does now with a news cameras,”

“Eyes” of Service Secret wartime uses of the new portable television equipment included, Use as “eyes” in remotecontrolled aircraft; observation of gunfire; transmission of mes and charts, and 6 other general observation purposes.

Discuss: Néew Methods Theme of the convention will be how to produce better goods at lower prices while paying higher wages. Discussions will present war-born production methods that are expected to help achieve, this end. Methods of U, 8. allied and axis producers will be described. Attendance is expected to total about 10,000 of the 18,000 members in the U. 8, Canada and England.

SET MODEL PLANE CONTEST AT FIELD

A’ model airplane exhibit and ‘contest will be held May 20 to 27 by the Brightwood Pilots’ association. Contestants will be divided into groups for high school and grade school boys. Classes will be in solid models of war and civilian planes, built-up models of war and civilian planes and models of original design

Factors in judging will include detail, structure and finish. The contest will be held at the Brightwood airport.

more tires than it did before the war, although not as many as it is going to make. The combined output of aluminum ware and enamel ware is over the pre-war figure. The. ‘output of laundry equipment has topped 1939, and so has the output of table-model radios. A civilian production administration study of reconversion status of leading plants in 50 metal-working industries shows this situation: Feel Steel Strike Pre-war activity: 424,000 employees, $185,000,000 monthly output. December, 1945, activity: 788,000 employees, $377,000,000 output. June, 1946, forecast: 842,000 employees, $541,000,000 output. There is substantial production in most of the durable goods flelds right now. “Troubles are largely those of adjustment,” a CPA executive explains. “One man has everything but handles for his washing machines. Another has handles, but lacks other parts. These problems are likely to work out in the sudden finishing of a lot of washing machines by both manufacturers.”, The effect of the steel strike will continue to be felt throughout the metal goods field for weeks, but it will pass like the trough of a wave

when the tide’s coming in.

turn out 28,000,000 this year. The pre-war average was 4,800,000 suits (all price lines) a quarter, and 18,000,000 annually. The trouble is that demand for suits is estimated at 40,000,000 this year, far beyond the industry's capacity. Nothing the industry can do will satisfy the customers.

GAS UTILITY TO INCREASE OUTPUT

The $1,992,343 expansion program of the Citizens Gas & Coke Utility

will increase the output of the plant by one-third, Thomas L. Kemp, general manager, predicted today

in outlining details of the new ine °

stallations. With the new equipment, produce tion of the utility will be increased by 15,000,000 cubic feet daily. Large est daily output of the plant last winter was 31,000,000 cubic feet. The expansion program will ine clude two new buildings at the main plant in the 2900 block Prose pect st. These will house two addie tional water gas sets which will include purification equipment and compression facilities for increased output.
