Barrage balloon manufacture. Seamers at work. Putting rubber cement on both surfaces which are to be fastened together, these workers assemble individual pattern pieces into strips or "gores" for barrage balloons being made for army balloon corps. By an ingenious arrangement of folds, strips nearly a hundred feet long can be handled by each worker on the table in front of him. General Tire and Rubber Company, Akron, Ohio
