Closing tun (or Classified Ads S a, m. Too Lata to Classify 12:90 p. m. By Max L. Brown (UP Staff Correspondent) New York. (UP) America embarked on an all-out war economy in 1941, broke all rec ords In national Income, em ployment and .production, and planned for at least a 20 percent gain in output in 1942. Transition to a war economy involved dislocations in civilian industry and more were antici pated. It accelerated when the United States was plunged into war and industry voluntarily adopted the 24-hour day, 7-day week. Government regulations became more stringent and real price controls were anticipated. This y e a r's prospect for further expansion was based on anticipation of $50,000 000,000 federal spending for armament This demand, it was predicted, would close many non-war in dustries, diverting the inn and materials to war output. During 1941, the federal re serve board's production index hit an all-time high as the year closed at 163 percent of the 1935-1939 average. This year it is estimated this index will reach 200, level off, and event ually drop when the emergency is over. National Income approxi mated $97,500,000,000, nearly $19,000,000,000 over 1940 and about $15,000,000,000 over the previous record set in 1929. This year's is estimated at $120,- 000,000,000,000. The govern ment hopes to syphon off a vast amount of this in the form of taxes to help finance the war. Employment was estimated around 52,000,000, a record, and an increase of almost 5.000,000 over 1940. Back in 1917, first year of World war No. 1 for United States, employment was 42,600.000. The total labor force is estimated at 55.000,000 and it is believed a labor short age will develop before the end of 1942 because of manpower diverted to the military. Government Aids Expansion Industry expanded vastly dur ing the past year, but the cost of this was borne, largely by gov ernment and was without bene fit for the capital market which Together Again For FUN Again 1A REGISTRANTS ON PRESENT US! RECEIVING CALLS (Continued Prom Pit One) 21 and 36 already registered. about 300,000 now are in active service. Selective service offic ials estimate another 2.000,000 or 3,000,000 could be obtained, if necessary, without dipping into new Feb. 16 registrants. How ever, it is likely that many of the latter, especially the younger men, will be inducted early along with the existing eligibles. New men are not coming ex clusively from draftees by any means. The war department said yesterday that December volun teers may exceed 60,000, nearly double the previous record of 39,589 obtained in May, 1917. Cards are now being printed for distribution to the nation's 6.500 draft boards, In prepara tion for the Feb. 16 registra tion. All male citizens and some non-citizens born on or after Feb. 17, 1897, and on or before Dec. 31,- 1921, must sign up on that day between 7 a. m. and 9 p. m. After these estimated 9,000. 000 are registered, local boards will give each a serial number. Then a lottery will be held sim ilar to those of Oct. 16, 1940, and July 1, 1941. Capsules will be drawn from a glass bowl to de termine the order in which the new registrants are to be called for military duty or deferred for physical or other reasons. Whether the order numbers of this vast, fresh supply of man power will be integrated with present registrants, as was done in the last lottery, has yet to be decided.
