8. Palmer, Alfred T. Production. Milling machines and machine castings. A large tracer-controlled multiple spindle vertical hydraulic milling machine being tried out on the runoff line of a large machine tool plant, for its eventual job of helping to make master connecting rods for radial aircraft engines. Four of the partially completed rods are mounted on the fixtures in the foreground. When in operation, the machine will have fixtures for eight such rods, so that while the completely automatic tracing finger guides the four cutters (extreme background) around one set of four rods, the operator can be unloading and reloading the other four fixtures with new parts to be milled. This machine will probably be the fourth or fifth of a series of perhaps a dozen different sizes and types of machine tools which will each have to perform their operations before these parts become finished connecting rods

9. At Prizren in Western Serbia, the children went to school without breakfast, when the A.R.C. arrived it secured a captured German army field range from the French and set it up in the courtyard of a Turkish Church. Three times a day the school children of the town gather in this place and are served food by the Red Cross. They are polite youngsters and do not crowd one another. They will sit about for hours watching the preparations of the meals. Time is no object to them, and Prizre has no truant officer. Note the small stream of water flowing between the white cobblestones in the extreme left foreground. This is a typical sewer in this part of the world
