People gather at the Wright Aeronautical Factory in Paterson, New Jersey to attend the opening of a new airplane motor plant. Factory workers build and operate the motors. In the next newsreel, factory works pour chemicals into a large tub and create Ameripol, synthetic rubber for tires. Next, people gather for the launch of the USS North Carolina cruiser. Miss Isabel Hoey, daughter of Mayor Hoey, smashes a champagne bottle against the cruiser before it takes off from its dock.
