Description

A Ministry of Munitions presentation produced by Cinesound. This is the story of the Munitions Stores and Transport Depots of which there is one in every capital city and hundreds of smaller stores in country towns. The lesson it offers is that clean stores, methodical stacking, expert maintenance, use of mechanical equipment, extension of female labour and careful checkiing methods mean immeasurably increased efficiency.
