GENERAL MOTORS REPORTS ON ITS FIRST
FULL YEAR OF WAR ACTIVITIES
FIRST, AN APPRECIATION . . .
While the figures and statistics shown below
are impressive, they do not tell the full story.
They do not show, for example, the coopera
tion we have had from Army and Navy
officials at every step of our progress toward
. the record production already achieved. Nor
do they indicate the fine spirit of cooperation
shown by our suppliers and subcontractors,
on whom we rely for so much of the work.
They cannot convey an adequate picture of
the eagerness of hundreds of thousands of
General Motors men and women to back the
courage and determination of our fighting
men with an ample supply of the most effec
tive fighting weapons in the world. They
cannot give even a hint of the initiative dis
played by our engineers and mass-production
technicians in effecting manufacturing
economies and efficiencies which have
resulted in the saving of critical war materials
and manpower, and which', have already
made possible price reductions amounting to
hundreds of millions of dollars.
These are the practical results that come
from encouraging individual effort and Initia
tivethe American way of getting the job
done. Machines alone cannot win the victory
it will be won by free men working and
fighting together for the only kind of future
worthy of America.
1940 and 1941 were years of defense produc
tion and of planning for the possibility of war.
Pearl Harbor found this defense production well
under way. With the declaration of war and the
call for "all-out" war effort, General Motors
concentrated its entire organization and all its
'facilities on war production.
: The tremendous job ahead at the threshold
of 1942 called for the "know-how" of all our
'engineers, designers, mechanics and man
agers, skilled and experienced in mass produc
tion. It required the retooling and rearranging
of all our plants for maximum production of
war products. It meant designing and building
new machines, and tools to make them train
ing skilled hands to perform new tasks, and
teaching the unskilled building employment
and payrolls to unprecedented peaks organiz
ing and enlisting the support of our network of
thousands of suppliers and subcontractors. It
also meant establishing and operating training
schools to teach thousands of men in the armed

General Motors-built war equipment.
Now at the beginning of 1943 these basic tasks
have all been accomplished, and during their
accomplishment General Motors plants made
and delivered a mighty, rising tide of war
materials.. That tide continues to rise with
onass-production technique swinging into full
stride.
Thus General Motors answers our govern
ment's call for "Production, production and
more production!"
