They had plenty of reasons for their opinions. Some of them: 1) production of worsted cloth and the tailoring of garments is crippled by a lack of labor (New England woolen mills need at least 15,000 more workers); 2) worsteds, unfrozen in August, will not reach the civilian consumer until early spring 1946; 3) textile mill machinery is wearing out, needs replacing...
Gleiwitz was also typical of the Russians' complexity of maneuver all along the front. The industrial basin had not been Konev's only aim. More important was his second objective: crossing the unfrozen Oder River...
Over the Rivers. The main battle for Warsaw had not been fought among its ruins, but for miles around them. Zhukov forced a crossing of the unfrozen Vistula 57 miles south of the city, widened his bridgehead and then struck with the full weight of his armor to carve out a breakthrough. Zhukov's tanks fought and won two battles as they sped northward to the Warsaw-Lódź highway. Eighteen miles north of the city another Russian force made its crossings, struck through to join the main column on the highway. Warsaw was taken from...
...Cooler. Hot oil from airplane crankcases is usually forced into air-bathed tubes for cooling. But at high altitudes this system works too well. Air is often so cold that oil closest to the pipe surfaces freezes and insulates the circulating unfrozen oil against the cooling blast. So, to keep the system from breaking down, oil is usually bypassed around the cooler and therefore lubricates at temperatures too high for efficiency. Airesearch has developed a cooler that works in high-altitude cold. It regulates the flow of cooling air through shutters, which are narrowed when the oil becomes too cold...
Although Sonja Henie and her ballet give only one performance on skates, it is stylishly performed in pure white costumes on a sheet of coal-black ice (part water, part India ink). To prevent the skate marks from showing up white it was necessary to keep a film of unfrozen water over the black...
