TURNS OUT 1000
SHELLS PER WEEK
TO ANSWER CALLS

Manchester, England-A typical
example of the enterprise and re-
sourcefulness displayed by the
north of England manufacturers in
converting their plants into NUM-
tons factories was given by a con-
Germ in a Manchester suburb.
When Lloyd Georges call came
for shells this plant had no equip
ment for their manufacture. The
manager made a quick tour Of sur
rounding towns, visiting small
shops from which he borrowed
lathes. These were converted into
shell-niaking machines and in a re-
markably short time the plant was
turning out 1900 shells a week Of
large Calibre.
The usual method of "bottling''
or shaping the nose of a shell is by
hydraulic pressure. The plant,
he wever, had no presses available
for tne work. The government en-
gineers offered to supply a press,
but that meant a considerable de-
lay. = won't wait for them,"' said
the manager. Il can bottle shells
with a steam hammer.
IhOSe engineers laughed at me,
the manager said, but the hammer
worked
BY the hydraulic process, shells
are bottled with the ends up. -
turned the shells upside down in a
mold and hammered their noses in, =
the manager explained. Both time
and money were saved" Many shell
factories in the district are now en-
plOyinS this method.
