Two Ann Arbor plants which
were major producers in World

ernment contracts related to war
work, but, it was stated, neither

'.-., and recently added the Willy's ;

'riand jeep line. (Willy's last'

i-'-president, said that "we |
alreauy have a few small govern- ^
ment contracts, but they are rou- |

sighting devices." .

fore any local plants get directly;-
, into current war production work,;
