Bantam, Connecticut. War workers' homes. Fred Heath runs a turret lathe at the Warren McArthur plant, where he's been working since August 1941. He formerly worked in a machine shop in his native city Torrington. One of the first families to move into the new war workers' homes in Bantam, the Heaths, who have been married for five years, had previously been living in a furnished room in Torrington. Mrs. Heath formerly lived in Winsted, a town of about 25,000 people just a dozen miles from Torrington. They are proud of their new home and of the comfortable new furniture they bought on the installment plan in Torrington. They have besides the kitchen, a large living room, a modern bath, a medium-sized master bedroom and a smaller room for their three-year-old daughter, Ann. Sourced from the Library of Congress.
