She used to wrap bread in a bakery, before Pearl Harbor, but today twenty-one-year-old Eugenia Bireta is a qualified government inspector who tests gas masks for "eye leakage" on this pressure gauge. She's one of many young women employed by a large Midwest vacuum cleaner company now converted to production of gas masks. Eureka Vacuum, Detroit, Michigan.
