Every care is exercised to insure the safe arrival of Clevrolet-built engines at assembly plant or air base. To combat rust and the deteriorating influences of the elements, the engines are even vacuum-sealed in a pliofilm bag, as shown above. Not only is all air pumped from the bag before sealing, but special dehydrating compounds capable of absorbing a gallon of water are enclosed in the rubberized bag. Even spark plugs are removed, and moisture-absorbent plastic plugs sub- stituted while the unit is in transit. In all, 28 one-half-pound bags of the dehydrating crystals are wrapped up in the pliofilm covering. Once the pliofilm has been heated and sealed at the top, the unit is then packed in a shipping case. A unique feature of this case iz the port, through which inspectors can check constantly the moisture content within the pliofilm bag, for the humidity indicator shown here accurately measures relative humidity by color tions from blue to pink. Specified by the Army, this arrangement makes possible a constant check on the engine’s condition without removing it from the.case.’ United States Just Turns Sixth (olumn Against Spies of 14 defendants, convicted of con-| I { Viola Poke and son. aréfare; gas-repellent uni-| desca lmnn Tange finders; “electric eye” anti-aircraft shells and other | devices’ “which probably have not | yet seen 'service in the current con- flict [ ogical * et REPLACE CHICAGO i oginets, were_seivered o) | OST N PACIFIC o Germany vital U .S. defense sec-|were pot disclosed, but, judging 5. {from Hamburg's frequent com- America’s streamlined counter- plaints fhat microphotographs of espionage is more advanced. ap- blueprints and documents were too|heavy cruiser Chicago, was launch- parently, than the vaunted German blurred f{gr, use, Germany received|ed yesterday, shortly after the an- fifth column.
