E¢ evacuees, it is beEt lieved here that practically the entire Ruhr population, including workers, has been ordered to move. So far the refugee. centers to which the evaca uees have been Paul Ghali gent include the

‘Silesia and Alsace. "Almost apologetically, the Nazi party organ, Voelkischer Boebachter, stresses that some of the towns now being evacuated have experienced no less than 600 alerts and 180 real raids. To bear the bombing terror

passively, writes the paper, is “ex-|

tremely difficult.” The front-line soldier can defend himself or work his rage by fighting but in an | air raid shelter, holding out means ‘tremendous physical and nervous

Tt is clear that the Nazis are now gonfronted with the same evacuation problems as they caused their gdversaries three years ago. The description of the evacuees’ morale ~ and the reasons for their discontent . pecalls almost word for word the tragedy of the Alsatian evacuation at the beginning of the war when the French government ordered the removal of the whole population of two districts—Strasbourg and Mulhausen to Perigord. Alsatians then

were simply considered as intruders. ~~ Apparently the same phenome-|

non’s occurring today with the " Ruhr evacuees, judging from the pathetic appeal launched by Voelkischer Beobachter to the populations of the sheltering districts.

The paper writes, not very en-

" The newspaper also seeks to impress its readers that it is better to

live in one room and take in evac-|

_ uees than to live comfortably in a " fine house thinking of those who ve no roof to their heads. . It is also®apparent that German refugees are animated by exactly the same natural instincts as their ~ fellow sufferers in France, Belgium and Holland.

Thus, news from Alsace reveals that refugees pouring in there these days expect preferential treatment er the local population. In the hausen Tagblatt, the German underprefect of Mulhausen, Murer, has had recently to call upon the

mspeople to welcome the evac-|

tees sympathetically even though “some of them sometimes display an

*insolent attitude.” Hospitality, said |

Murer, always has been one of ‘the | great Alsatian qualities. “I am sure e people of Mulhausen will want live up to their traditions.”

‘Despite their traditional hospity, there is little doubt that Alsatians will recall that they ve suffered the same experience as their new guests, because of these ‘guests’ leaders. ‘There are definite indications that

~{HE U. S. ARMY Ordnance Department, early in 1942, asked one of our executives if we had a factory near a good. supply of water, of sufficient size to make small calibre ammunition at the rate of many millions every twenty-four hours. We had such a factory on the Ohio River with enough feet of floor space. It was well placed near additional unused land and far enough from the city to allow the storage of powder and the loading and testing of ammunition. : The work of preparation was started immediately. The automobile machinery in the plant, which could

"FROM CARS TO BULLETS FOR TOMMY GUNS, PISTOLS, REVOLVERS"

not be used, was dismantled and put elsewhere. It was replaced by new-and different equipment. A specialized laboratory was installed and staffed with engineers, metallurgists, and technicians drawn from our widely diversified staff. Produc..... execu-

tives and specialists were also selected from our

own personnel. While the factory was being pre-

“TESTING FOR EVERY BATTLE FRONT CONDITION"

pared for production, the Frankford arsenal assisted the training of these production specialists who, in turn, were to train the workers and supervise the

operation of the many departments of the plant.

The first finishel ammunition produced in this newly organized plant went on test in May, 1942. The cartridge cases were then made of brass. Brass is an extremely vital war material. Could steel be used instead? Could steel be worked over the machinery and tools that were provided for the use

a WE he Viki] “COULD IT BE DONE LA 7 WITH STEEL?"

of brass? Could the steel be trgated to withstand

the corrosion of a long sea voyage and to resist suc-

cessfully the humidity of the tropics and the subzero temperatures of the Arctic? The U. S. Army Ordnance Department — and our own engineers, metallurgists and technicians believed it could.

More engineering talent — this time chemists —

“THOUSANDS PER MINUTE”

were added to the laboratory staff and the larger and more complete Chrysler Corporation’s laboratories, in Detroit, were also directed to the solution of this problem.

The first of the new steel casings were made in the month of August, 1942. They were pretty good. Then began severe testing, — spraying with wet salt

+ air, burying in salty mud marshes washed by the

tide,—storing in hot damp rooms and open exposure to the weather,—plating with lacquer, copper, cadmium, nickel, chrome, zinc, silver, lead — dipping in dichromate, sealing with plastics. A vast cycle of experiments were tried and tested and the results compared. From all this effort came a standardized

MILESTONE”

product made of steel, and approved for use on all the battle fronts.

The making of this ammunition is really the art

of producing many pieces rapidly—many thousands

per minute, every day, 6 days a week. Ninety-nine operations are performed to take each piece of ammunition from the lead, steel and powder stage to the formed, loaded, tested and packed, finished article — ready to shoot, — with every piece perfect in shape, finish, and firing efficiency.

We have made our first billion of this steel ammus nition. Not that this is a top record for ammunition making but, to us, it is a milestone passed on the road . tos Victory. We will pass the second and third billion with much less emotion but we really got a thrill out of joining the ranks of the important producers of ammunition.

With this change to steel we release, with every billion rounds, thousands of tons of brass. This

“A LITTLE THING BECAME BIG”

brass can now be used in war production where no other substitute is possible. A finished round of ammunition weighs only & few ounces. Little things often do become really big and important.
