Fortnight ago he was forced to start shipping steel to Willow Run from his own plant at Fontana, Calif., an expensive procedure. Now he plans to ship only enough from Fontana for 15,000 cars, expects to be getting steel from Portsmouth by the time these are finished. This should give him plenty of time to put the deal through...
