ing of special food products for the
nations fighting forces on far
flung battle fronts all over the
world.
The packing of these special food
products necessitated the creation
and operation of specially con-
structed machinery and the devel-
opment of new and intricate pro-
cesses which only could have been
brought about by the highest spir-
it of loyalty and the years of ex-
perience and knowledge gained by
Phillips workers in packing pro-
ducts for millions of family tables
in many parts of the globe.
The Army-Navy "E" award to
the men and women of the Phillips

American Aid Seen
For Red Industries

WASHINGTON, Oct. 31.-tR
Discussion of plans for AM
erican aid in rebuilding the
Russian industrial machine is
suggested as the reason for
Donald M. Nelson's visit to
Russia. The War Production
Board chairman is expected
back in Washington any day.
Associates Of Nelson say it
would be logical to suppose
that Nelson discussed with
Moscow officials the provision
of machine tool and industrial
machinery to rebuild an econ
omy in the ravaged lands re-
covered from the Nazis..
The rapid and sustained Red
army advance makes it evil
dent, these sources say, that
the work of reconstruction can
be begun before Germany
falls. 1t is indicated that
American machine tool capa-
city, vastly expanded for war
purposes and now facing a
sharp decline in orders, might
be brought into play to aid
the restoration.
Nelson, who left Washington
about six weeks ago with Lon
don his announced destination,
turned up in Cairo and in
Moscow after his visit in
England.
