A little miss hitting the mark. Although her mind is far from vengeance to be wrecked on the Axis powers, this little lady is contributing to their defeat. She has gathered up an old bicycle tire and other odds and ends to contribute to the scrap rubber collection drive. Reclaimed rubber made from these materials is playing an imcreasingly important part in the war effort. Large percentages of "reclaim" are now being used in many material articles, such as combat tires, self-sealing gas tanks, etc.. Help build up Uncle Sam's scrap rubbe pile by contributing any no longer used rubber articles you may have

Giant tire manufacturer. A steady stream of large, rugged tires for Uncle Sam's fighting forces, like those above, is now in mass production at this large Eastern plant. Here workmen are shifting newly vulcanized tires to conveyor lines that will take them to final inspection department. They are then shipped to the fighting forces to help build the ever-increasing number of mobile and mechanized units in America's hard-striking war machine

Rubber reclamation. Harvesting rubber from discarded tires. Scrap rubber, reclaimed by dissolving and washing out the fibrous materials in old casings, goes through the first refining process in a big Midwest plant. The cleaned, plasticized scrap passes through rolls which carry off dirt and foreign particles at the sides. The refined rubber is then gathered in sheets for further steps in the xylos process. Firestone

Rubber reclamation. Scrap tires mobilized for Victory. Millions of discarded casings cover more than 100 acres at one Midwest recovery plant. Systematic piling and sectional arrangement reduce fire hazard. Special processes will separate metal from the tires and tube bodies. The reclaimed material will be used to manufacture thousands of essential mechanical rubber products. Firestone

Giant tire manufacturer. Final inspection of the world's largest tire, the 36.00-40 earth mover, used in the construction of airports and new army camps. This huge tire stands nine and a half feet high, with tube and flap, weighs 3,646 pounds and carries 55,000 pounds. The giant mold in which it is vulcanized weighs 300,000 pounds and stands two and a half stories high when the cover is open. The top section of the mold which is raised and lowered to admit the tire, weighs sixteen tons. Large bullet- sealing gasoline and oil tanks are also being cured in this mold

Literature in Liszt's mind and work a lecture

I wish he would make up his mind

Fort Benning. Parachute troops. Look at that boy come, riding a chute like an oldtimer. A student paratrooper at Fort Benning, Georgia has wind currents to think about, and he has his mind on the spot where he wnats to land. He's learning to make the kind of a landfall he wants

Manpower, junior size. What's a home without its sidewalk scrap pile? Junior commandos of Roanoke, Virginia see to it that each home has given enough scrap to make the scrap collectors monthly visit worthwhile. When the truck appears, every youngster in the neighborhood pitches in to help load it

Production. A-31 ("Vengeance") dive bombers. Checking part to blueprint. Here a pair of factory workers check the blueprint with a part which will go into the "Vengeance" dive bombers made at Vultee's Nashville Division. The "Vengeance" (A-31) was originally designed for the French. It was later adopted by the RAF (Royal Air Force) and still later by the U.S. Army Air Forces. It is a single-engine, low-wing plane, carrying a crew of two men and having six machine guns of varying calibers
