Women in industry. Gas mask production. Formerly a beauty shop operator, blonde Marjorie Karwaske finds that the dear dead days of bobby pins and curler clamps have left her with skillful, speedy fingers and a natural tendency to eliminate wasteful hand movement. These are invaluable aids to her job at a Midwest vacuum cleaner plant which has been converted to the production of gas masks. Those skillful fingers fasten eye pieces to the bodies of gas masks.
