1. America's petroleum industries pour out fuel and lubricants for the United Nations. The depth of a modern oilwell in the U.S. Southwest is indicated by the height of the steel oil derrick and the "stack" of drill sections suspended from the derrick's top, ready for use one at a time as the hole drilled for oil goes deeper and the drill stem, on which the cutting-bit works, must be extended. One stem-section from the "stack" has already been picked up by the giant pulley and cable for lowering into the hole to extend the drill stem. Oilwells such as these are sometimes drilled to a depth of two or three miles (4.8 kilometers) under the ground to tap a rich oil deposit. More and more wells are being drilled today in the U.S., as the oil industry strives to supply the enormous demand of the armed forces of the U.S. and other United Nations for oil to lubricate and gasoline to propel planes and mechanized equipment of battle 1944?

6. United States. Office of War Information. Latest photograph of the Army Bell P-39D Airacobra which has been in volume production for several months. The only visible change in this plane over the earlier production type is the addition of a belly tank to augment the normal fuel supply. The bomb- like, streamlined tank can be dropped in flight after its contents are exhausted. This Army fighter which carries the heaviest cannon of any single-seater fighter in the world, is powered by an Allison V-type liquid-cooled engine submerged behind the pilot's compartment, as the exhaust stacks indicate. It is connected to the hollow-hub-propeller by a ten-foot drive shaft, developed by General Motors for the Airacobra. Other armament includes heavy and light machine guns between 1941 and 1946
