Description
Outside view of Hsiaotung cement plant in Manchuria. This was the Chinese Nationalists' best undamaged, but smallest, plant. Plans were underway to re-open it. The former Japanese manager is standing in the center of the railroad tracks. Photograph taken during the U.S. Reparations Mission. Edwin Pauley was the U.S. Ambassador on the Allied Reparations Committee from 1945-47 (the committee that assessed the reparations the Axis powers could afford to pay the victors).
