Fiberglass manufacture, Owens-Corning, Toledo, Ohio. To increase productive capacity and meet war demands for fiberglass thermal and acoustical insulation, workmen in a plant of the Owens-Corning Fiberglass Corporation are laying firebrick. This is the first step in the construction of one of the huge furnaces required for glass melting

Production. Tin smelting. Storage piles of slag at a Southern tin smelter that extracts the pure metal from South American ore. This slag is reintroduced to the smelting process as many times as it is able to yield up useful constituents. The large amount of pure tin produced at this plant serves to meet many of the countless war demands of the United Nations

Production. Aircraft engines. A skilled mechanic and determined war worker, Zed W. Robinson, proves that skin pigment bears no relation to efficiency of work. He's one of many Negroes employed in a large Midwest aircraft plant in skilled and semi-skilled capacity. Tightening bolts of a cylinder barrel during the final build-up of an airplane engine is one of the jobs which, until fairly recently, was closed to members of his race. But this war demands that no American because of race, creed or color shall be barred from work. Melrose Park, Buick plant

Production. Tin smelting. A sample of slag from one of the furnaces of a Southern tin smelting plant is tested to determine its tin content. After it has cooled, the sample is sent to the plant laboratory for analysis. At this smelter, the most modern plant of its kind in the world, pure tin is extracted from South American ore to meet the countless war demands of the United Nations

America's petroleum industries pour out fuel and lubricants for the United Nations. The largest oil pipeline ever laid runs from the U.S. southwest state of Texas eastward to the Atlantic coast, a distance of almost 1,400 (2240 kilometers) miles, over which 300,000 barrels of oil every day is being pumped to help supply the enormous war demands of the armed forces of the U.S. and the United Nations. The pipeline is 24 inches in diameter and cost $95,000,000 to complete. The section being laid in the ground has been given a coat of hot asphalt paint. The building of the pipeline insured a steady flow of fuel oil from the oil fields to Atlantic coast ports
