Women in industry. Gas mask production. The grim realities of war are brought home to this twenty-one-year-old worker in a Midwest vacuum cleaner plant which now makes gas masks. It's her job to wire and tape the outlet valves of the masks, which are delivered to her by a moving conveyor belt. Eureka Vacuum, Detroit, Michigan
