"BOOM TOWN. Overcrowding and substandard housing are symptoms of Lorain's rapid postwar boom. Top left: Two National Tube Co. 'in-migrants,' Leon Lake, jr., (on bed) and Carlos Gower, in the room they have shared with as many as five other men. Top right: Lake points to a rotting fire hose on a floor housing 40 men. The valve was on, but no water came. Below right: White barracks house Puerto Rican laborers on steel company property."
