Nelson congratulates a blind worker. For her work in training blind persons for war industries, Miss Helen Hurst, founder of the Helen Hurst Foundation For the Blind, was congratulated by Donald M. Nelson, War Production Board (WPB) chairman. Miss Hurst, herself blind, tries out the various types of jobs to see if they can be done by blind people before she places them in industry

Priorities unemployment. No more money. John Jones, silk worker, is a victim of "priorities unemployment." It might have been James Smith, rubber worker. It might have been anybody. The "priorities unemployment" is part of a process of changing over, of retooling. And it's a temporary part, in most cases. Defense industries are expanding. In the long run, the defense program will make more jobs than it will break. It has already created 4,000,000 new jobs and there will be 2,500,000 more by April 1942. Production skills are needed for defense, John Jones'skills, James Smith's skills. How does "man meet job?"
