This new management was best ex pressed in Eisenhower's choice of his Cab inet and sub-Cabinet. The majority of the men were called directly from business, in most cases big business. Businessmen realize this is as much a challenge as an opportunity. After 20 years of claiming they could do things better than the New Dealers, they now have the chance to put up or shut up.

Last week, having completed his Cabinet and filled most of his sub-Cabinet posts, he appointed an Under Secretary of Defense and the three secretaries of the armed services (see The New Administration).

By next fall, Grumman will hit peak production, and manufacture of the old teams will be stopped...

He entered the Navy soon after the beginning of the war and served on an anti-sub vessel until a month before the U.N. conference in San Francisco...
