Nutrition in industry. New stainless steel rolling cafeterias are hauled by tractor-train down one of the half-mile-long aisles of Boeing's Kansas plants, each filled with sufficient food to feed 250 hungry aircraftsmen. At stations spaced 250 feet apart the wagons will be uncoupled and attendants will set up shop on the feeding line. Because of the convenient locations selected, no employee will have to walk more than a few steps to get his wholesome mid-shift meal

Nutrition in industry. Little time is lost by these war plant employees at meal times. No one needs to go over 250 feet to return with a nourishing piping-hot mid-day meal. Complete satisfaction with the well-balanced meals provided is evidenced by the facial expressions of the workers, as they relax during lunch beside one of the massive punch presses which they operate

Salvage. Stacking chips in the game of war. Even better, if possible, than the individual citizen, American industry has learned to waste nothing. With every ounce of steel and steel scrap vital to the war, this employee of the Boston & Maine Railroad has been assigned the job of sorting steel washers. Here, as in all industry today, anything reusable is put back into service; the remainder becomes scrap to feed the nation's insatiable steel mills

Conversion. Food machinery plant. Cutting of spouts for anti-tank guns is the present work of this lathe, shown here at its former job--shaping of wooden rollers used with a belt control to carry steaks into the cube steak machine which is this New England plant's normal product. Conversion of this lathe, and the stepping up of its speed, has turned his skill from peacetime work to war production. Cube Steak Machine Company, Boston, Massachusetts
