WIZARD WILSON The other day the Army ordered the BSymington - Gould ordnancel plant in Rochester abandoned. A brand new building had been fin-| ished at heavy cost to the tax- payer, and a lot of the equipment hed been installed. However, the Army had over- shot its mark on ordnance, found it would not need so many big planes, sorely needed on-all fronts. If he hadn't stepped in, the plant would now be an empty shell.
