Steel manufacture, Allegheny-Ludlum. Ladling it out! These workers are casting ingots from the ladle into which a thirty-five ton electric furnace has just poured its molten steel. The "hot tops" allow for shrinkage of the steel in the ingots bodies. If these should be any slag left in the molten steel, it will rise into these hot tops, since slag is lighter than the steel

Conservation of used material bears heavily on the progress of the defense program. From Western Electric's distributing houses used wire and cable is shipped to the Nassau Smelting and Refining Company, where its components are preserved and cast into ingots and billets that find their way back to industry again. At the Atlanta distributing house, a new battery-driven lift and dumptruck speeds the local conservation program
