Summary
"[Program] is a non-commercial, public-service feature which depicts significant or unusual aspects of American manufacturing activities. It is produced by the National Association of Manufacturers and is carried by approximately 257 stations in this country and 25 foreign stations."--1956 Peabody Digest. "An up-to-date factory that insists most of its machines be made of wood is visited in Issue 305 of 'Industry on Parade'. It's the American Manufacturing Concern of Falconer, New York, which makes furniture and other wooden articles, and thinks it only consistent with its claims for its wooden production to use that material wherever possible. This issue of the [newsreel] also shows 'human guinea pigs'--workers at Abbott Laboratories in Chicago who volunteer to have new medications tried out on them. In Pottsville, Pennsylvania, the cameraman studies the changes in men's shirts as reflected at Phillips-Jones Corporation; and around Gallup, New Mexico, he goes along with archaeologists who follow the pipe-line laying of El Paso Natural Gas Company to spot any Indian relics that may be uncovered."--news release
