Conversion. Floor waxer plant. A modern Molly Pitcher of the machine, this secretary-treasurer of a small Eastern manufacturing company knows as much about drills and lathes as the oldest employee around the place. And it was in part through her foresight and initiative that this floor waxer plant was converted to war production. She's shown here with a youthful worker who is operating one of the recently converted machines. Floorola Products Inc., York, Pennsylvania
