A part of the shop in a Midwestern company which has converted its machines and trained labor forces

Conversion. Automobile industry. The last automobile engines in a large Midwest factory to be completed prior to its conversion to tank production. These engines will be used to fill government orders for spare parts. The Plymouth Company, Chrysler Corporation, Detroit, Michigan

Production. Milling machines and machine castings. Motors, too. Every modern machine tool has at least one motor; most have two; some have nearly a dozen. They range from small fractional horsepower fan motors to twenty horsepower giants, sometimes joined to provide as much as 120 horsepower in a single machine
