Cummins in China

The "Lending Act" includes military defense patrol boats equipped with Cummins engines and military trucks.

Erwin Miller, general manager of Cummins Engine Co., expressed great interest in this letter. It is hoped that Cummins will build a factory in China after the Sino-Japanese War. For reasons known to all, Mr. Miller's idea can only wait until the 1970s 30 years later. With the gradual relaxation of Sino-U.S. relations, it is expected to become a reality.
