Some Hope. For all these headaches, Detroit was offered only one pill: munitions orders, some $4,000,000,000 worth. From that, no motormaker expected to make the kind of money he was used to. Yet OPM promised to solve one problem by dishing its defense orders out in bigger hunks. Most of Detroit's munitions work so far has been supplementary to automobiles, done in small amounts and in new and separate plants. A really big spate of orders will force the conversion of present automaking plants, tools and man power. Chevrolet, which...
Most people, however, took the rationing with great good humor, plotted how to include unrationed tablecloths, drapes, narrow ribbons in their couture. Looking forward to the worn ensembles, shiny elbows and frayed cuffs of the future, President Oliver Lyttelton of the Board of Trade sugar-coated the pill: "I know all the women will look smart. We men may look shabby. If we do, we mustn't be ashamed...
