"In his speech of presentation of the 'E' pennant to the Turner Brass Works in appropriate ceremonies at 3:30 o'clock this afternoon, Major James A. McBride, Sr., told the audience of nearly 1,000  workers and guests there were two great forces engaged in winning the war.

"One is the fighting force, and the other is the production force.  Each is dependent on the other and our success here insures their success there."

Turner Brass Works was located in Sycamore, Illinois.
