Production figures are already fantastic: Since the beginning of the war, Canada has produced and shipped to the battle- fields of the world more than 250,000 ,military vehicles. Production is now at the rate of one unit every three minutes and is constantly mounting. Canadian fighting men need 160 different types of motorized equipment. Canada is producing all of them. One plant alone • is turning out in a single day enough Universal Carriers to equip two battalions. Heavy tanks, with 25,000 parts, are in mass production and, at one plant, are coming off the assembly line at the rate of one every few hours. 'This advertisement is published as a contribution to the general knowledge of our country's war effort and as an inspiration through the days ahead. For reasons of securitycomplete figures are not available. The facts presented, however, are impressive evidence of .the growing might of Canada's war machine.

First 'Massey -Harris Tanks For U.S. Army About Three Months Ahead of Schedule "One of the best achievements in- dustry can point to in the United States," said, General Donald Arm- strong, deputy chief of the Chicago Ordnance District ,in referring to the attainment of tank production ap- proximately three months ahead -of schedule' by the United States organ- ization of the Massey -Harris Cain - pa y. In this "manned, within the brief space of five months ,the management and workers of the United States Division of this well-known Canadian Oonrpany have fulfilled the promise made to General. Armstrong in Feb- ruary the contract runny this year was received, by Mr. J .S. Duncan, president and general manager of'the company, "that the success we have I made so far in armament production was due to the spirit in which the then of Massey -Harris had tackled the various projects and thatesame spirit would be back of the tank undertak- ing, and because of.it he could assure him success. ' At a mass' meeting outside the tank plant last Friday, workmen and ex- ecutives of Massey Harris cheered the announcement by General Armstrong that tanks which had not been ex- pected before mid-September were al- ready undergoing operating tests and that the present rate of production would make possible the delivery of tanks ao the fighting forces three months earlier than originally'.antici- pated. General Armstrong told the wank men that they were making these tanks to be used by their sons, their neighbors in the fighting forces. "Keep the fighting men in mind as - you build these tanks," he said; "and keep in mind mothers and fathers like Mrs. Peterson and your fellow Massey -Harris workman, Chris Pet- erson, who have 'three sons in the fighting forces and who pray that their boys will have the arms and equipment that will give them the power for victory." Mr. W. K. Hyslop, vice-president of Massey -Harris Company, expressed the thanks of the company to the! workmen for making the celebration possible. "11 has been a big job," 1101 Said.
