Description

Pouring Molten Steel . . . into manhole cover forms are M.L. McMiller, Omaha, at the ladle handle and three other Katelman Foundry steelworkers. The liquid reaches 2800 degrees before the men fill their 35 to 40 daily molds. When completed, the rings and covers sell for an average of $100 to $125 per set. A year's production is only 3,000 to 4,000 units in Council Bluffs.
