Aluminum casting. These castings are being loaded onto a sandblast table prior to the actual sandblasting operation. Conversion of this large Midwest aluminum foundry to production of war essentials has already taken place. This factory is producing aluminum equipment for Uncle Sam's war effort, under subcontract to other factories producing war items. Destination of the finished aluminum products is kept secret, but they'll probably end up as jeeps and airplane engines. Aluminum Industries Inc., Cincinnati, Ohio
