LAZY MAN MAKES TOUGH JOB SIMPLE

Chicago Tribune Press Service

WASHINGTON, Jan. 31. – A tip on how to solve difficult production problems was given the Senate Labor Committee today by Clarence E. Bleicher, president of the Chrysler Corp.’s De Soto division.

“When I have a tough job in the plant and can’t find an easy way to do it,” Bleicher said, “I have a lazy man put on it. He’ll find an easy way to do it in 10 days. Then we adopt that method.”
