TO be ReLeASed ON deliveRY
Mr. Chairman, and members of the Society for the Advancement of
Management, I appreciate your invitation to speak to you on the problem of
conve. sion from war production. Those problems are going to affect every
one of you. Because your activities constitute so important a segment of
the work of the nation, the extent to which you are successful in meeting
these problems will determine whether this nation will have prosperity
after the war.
Like most of you, I am confident that everything necessary to estab-
lish a prosperity beyond anything that we have ever had before is available
to us. During the war we have constructed hundreds of the finest and most
modern factories; we have equipped them with hundreds of thousands of the
newest and most efficient machine tools; and we have trained millions of
men and women to operate the tools. We have developed new materials and new
processes of manufacturing. We have also expanded our capacity to produce
materials and have made available, for every day use in large quantities,
TRUMAN NARA
materials that formerly were relatively rare and costly.
