3. Giant crankshaft for U.S. Navy vessel. How would you like to have a crankshaft this size in your automobile? It is going into one of General Motors' diesel engines for Uncle Sam's Navy. Extreme accuracy is a requisite of this defense item being produced at the General Motors Cleveland diesel engine division, and Navy inspector H.W. Watson checks up on the crankshaft's hardness. With the intensification of the national defense program, this plant has converted almost all its entire production to propulsion machinery for Uncle Sam's fleet.

A complete changeover from automobile equipment to defense production is the record of the General Motors Rochester Products Division in Rochester, New York. By January, this plant will have attained 100 percent defense production, taking just a year to accomplish the entire conversion, without any general stoppage of work or major layoffs.
