Oil burners to machine gun parts. Fixture which holds bare of raw materials from which small pieces, cut to size, are obtained for production of precision parts for Uncle Sam's machine gun squads. Site of these operations is an Eastern factory which has been converted from manufacture of oil burners to production of war essentials. Reif-Rexoil Company, Buffalo, New York

Production. BT-13A ("Valiant") basic trainers. Wings for "Valiant" basic trainers at Vultee's Downey, California plant. At the Downey plant is made the BT-13A ("Valiant") basic trainer--a fast, sturdy ship powered by a Pratt and Whitney Wasp engine

Shipbuilding (Newport News). These are mold loft workers laying out patterns for various parts of naval vessels under construction. These patterns are subsequently transferred to steel

Tire recapping. A recap job on a passenger car tire. The tire with a tread strip of reclaimed camelback rubber is put into a curing mold. The old tread surface had previously been ground down evenly and coated with rubber adhesive. The plan to recap passenger tires with reclaimed rubber camelback, approved by rubber director William M. Jeffers, was put into effect in February 1943 to reduce the demand for replacement tires and still keep civilian cars in service

Conversion. Floor waxer plant. One of the few lathes bought by a small Eastern manufacturing firm. Unable to purchase much new machinery, the owner of the company installed and remodelled old equipment to produce war essentials under subcontract. First orders were delivered thirty days after contract, an amoazingly short time considering that conversion of machines took two weeks of it. Floorola Products Inc., York, Pennsylvania

Fiberglass manufacture, Owens-Corning, Toledo, Ohio. Fiberglass yarns are twisted and plied on standard textile machinery as a step in the manufacture of tapes and cloths, used principally to insulate electric equipment operating under heavier loads today than ever before

Production. Jeep engines. This grinding machine in a Midwest plant is doing yeoman service in the production of jeep engines for the Army. Continental Motors, Michigan

Fort Benning. Parachute troops. Picture of a man doing a good job. He's one of Uncle Sam's student paratroopers at Fort Benning, Georgia, but the way he's getting his chute under control would be credit to an oldtimer. A few minutes ago this man bailed out of a high-speed plane at a point calculated to bring him to the spot where he is landing. Good work, soldier
