But, Mr. Sloan warned, "this does not mean that General Motors

available to the public.
The quotas for commercial production allotted .' "yv
to. General Motors are relatively small when-compared £jth,its prewar
business. * It is highly improbable that these quotas for initial ';': ?,
production will be sufficient to take care of the requirements of even ' .. s
essential users with high, priorities.
It is likely that such products

wilt for a time be subject to Government allotment.
The needs of the
war economy remain critical.
And it is proper that these needs should

Also warning that the intense absorption of the GM organization in " "
turning out war goods left neither time nor talent available for the

engineering and development work required for the recently announced

public, Mr. Sloan told the stockholders not to expect immediate pro- .

by the Chevrolet Motor Division.

from the separate Government-owned plants is included in
operating revenue" in the consolidated income statement.
Commenting on operations, Herbert E. Smith, President, said: "Our
business in the first six months was the greatest for any comparable
period in the company's history.
Both sales and earnings were at a
new high.
*
''War production continued to account for the major part of rour
operations.
Although we experienced cutbacks in some kinds of mili¬
tary output, such as ammunition, these were offset by increases' in
others. These increases indicated the important part rubber and plastics
are expected to take in the war against/ Japan."
*
;/ Mr. Smith said the company had consumed 44% more synthetic
rubber and 38% more synthetic plastics in the first half of 1945 than
in the first half of the previous year.

reason, and the manpower problem is limiting production, Mr. Olds
announced at his press conference following the quarterly meeting of
directors.
He
disclosed
that
United States Steel companies have
33,676 fewer workers on payrolls than a year ago and observed that
many jobs left vacant have been hard to fill because of skills required.
v Women
employees numbered 35,4.00 on June 30, or 12.4% of the total
.force of 287,775, compared with 39,000 women employed on Jan. 1,

of total employment at that time.
The average number of

"We don't know why they quit or where they go." Mr. Olds adihifcted.* adding that labor turnover in United States Steel's shipbuilding operations is "tremendous."

Besides lack of recruits and job jumping, the Chairman said, strikes
/ and work stoppages in 1945 up to last week had resulted in a loss of
1>338,000 tons of steel which otherwise would have been produced,
Mr. Olds said the company has made no offer or taken any additional
