...amount of heavy equipment orders, since most big customers can afford to wait. Westinghouse will also be able to catch up by boosting output in eleven new plants that were picketed before they reached full production. Moreover, said the company. 25 of its 58 major plants are still in partial operation, e.g., the Columbus. Ohio refrigerator factory, where nearly 6.000 striking workers are back...

This man with the monkey of addiction is Frankie Machine, a professional poker dealer who, in a federal institution, has already won a partial victory over the habit.
