What the NSRB Is Up To

Story of the Week
“Truth is stranger than fiction,”
they say, and sometimes good anec-
dotes come to life. For a funny
yarn that was pure fiction, turn to
the “story of the week” in the
February 9 issue. Herewith, it comes
to life:
Recently the five Firestone brothers
paid a visit to the Motor City to
show a series of their movies to auto
executives. On the evening of their
arrival, they rounded up several of
Detroit’s outstanding motor admin-
istrators, plus an accordion, and
ascended to their quarters in the
presidential suite of the Book Cadillac
for a little harmonizing.
As midnight approached, and the
vocalizing had become truly mellow,
a knock was heard at the door. In
stepped a youngish fellow, nattily at-
tried in a dubonnet-tinted bathrobe
and a jaunty beret.
“T heard you singing,” he explained,
“and I like to sing, myself. Mind
if I join you?”
The session continued until 3:30
a.m., and the guest turned out to be
James Melton, who had just finished
a concert at Masonic Hall.
New Letters to Learn
Hang onto your hats, boys. Here
we go again.
Remember the OPA and WPB?
Remember priorities and allocations
and programming and all the rest
of it?
Remember what war was like?
Well they’re oiling up the machin-

The new magic (or hateful) letters
are NSRB. They stand for National
Security Resources Board. You’ll be
hearing more about them. And from
them, too.
Title of this now-organizing Board
sounds innocent enough. Actually, it
is the Office of War Mobilization—or
Will become so if anyone shoots a gun
at us. It’s the outfit which will
frame “controls”: decide who will
make what and how much; who will
Stay in business and who won’t; and
even fix prices, possibly.
Ferdinand Eberstadt, master-
minder from the old War Production
Board, is on the job again. So are
Dun & Bradstreet economists like
Ralph Watkins, and a number of
s0vernment career men you'd re-
member if you were around the WPB
and ( /PA much during World War II.
Right now their job is to recruit
an Organization. Then they’ll make
Plans for running the entire country
down to the last detail—when

G-E Answers Charges
On Price Cutting
NEW YORK CITY—As the legal
battle continued between General
Electric Co. and Monarch-Saphin Co.,
Inc., New York, one of nine retailers
which the manufacturer seeks to
have enjoined from selling its prod-
ucts at less than fair-traded prices,
G-E and G-E Supply Corp. had filed
these answers to counter-charges by
the dealer:
1. G-E denied that it is the leading
price cutter of its own products or
that it has, by its own acts, caused
a competitive situation which has
forced businessmen to cut prices on
G-E products in order to stay in busi-
ness and retain customers.
2. G-E denied that there is any-
thing unfair in permitting employes
to purchase its products at a dis-
count.
3. G-E said it is not responsible for
the actions of G-E Supply Corp.,
since the subsidiary is operated by
its own management and is in no
sense an agent of General Electric in
the resale of G-E home appliances.
4. G-E Supply Corp. declared that
its policy is not to sell home appli-
ances at retail but that isolated and
infrequent sales may have been made

Steel Cut May Not
Aid Appliance Prices
NEW YORK CITY—United States
Steel Corp.’s previously announced
plans for cutting steel prices will
mean a $2 a ton reduction in cold-
rolled strip and sheet steel for the
appliance and automotive industries,
the company indicates.
Although this represents a distinct
downward trend, it is thought un-
likely that this price cut will be re-
flected in significant price reductions
on appliances because it is relatively
small.
Largest price cut announced by
U. S. Steel was $5 a ton for wire
rope, bale ties, and screen cloth.
The company also indicated that
the $3-a-ton differential previously
paid at its Geneva, Utah, plant is
being eliminated. Thus, steel prod-
ucts made there will cost no more
than those made in the company’s
other plants.
Prices of stainless steel have not
been changed, but Benjamin Fairless,
president of the company, said that
they were under consideration at the
present time.
Kelvinator Dealers Get
‘Group Life’ Policies
DETROIT, May 10—The first de-

an exclusive personal group life in-
surance plan, is now being offered at
no cost to Kelvinator and Leonard
appliance dealers by Refrigeration
Discount Corp., Nash-Kelvinator
finance subsidiary, C. R. Brogan,
manager, announced today.
ReDisCo also was the first to offer
customer life insurance.
“Often the death of an officer,
partner, or proprietor of a business
results in an immediate monetary
loss to his business associates or
heirs since it may be necessary to
liquidate assets at a loss to meet
immediate expenses and reorganize
the business,”’ Brogan said. ‘“‘The best
way to provide for protection against
such a contingency is through in-
surance.

3-Day Meeting, Show
On Coast Pulls 1,100
By Phil B. Redeker
SAN FRANCISCO—The Western
Refrigeration Educational Exhibit
and Conference, first in a series of
regional educational meetings jointly
sponsored by Refrigeration Equip-
ment Manufacturers Association and
Refrigeration Service Engineers So-
ciety, drew a registered attendance
of some 1,100 persons to a three-day
conclave of educational exhibits and
meetings last weekend at the Palace
hotel here.
Over-all reaction to the educa-
tional-conference idea was very much
on the favorable side. Those attend-
ing the exhibits and technical ses-
sions who were queried on the benefits
obtained were nearly unanimous in
asserting that they had learned much
that would be beneficial to them in
carrying on their refrigeration work.
“All of us have problems and ques-
tions about our work or some par-
ticular type of equipment, and we
had a chance to put these questions
to some of the top experts in the
business,”’ said one contractor.
“We think it would be wise for
manufacturers participating in future
shows to put their top men into
them, rather than their regional men,
because the guy in the field coming
to them wants to put his problems
before the highest possible authority,”
said another visitor.
Reaction of the manufacturers who
exhibited, while mixed, was gener-
ally on the favorable side. Some ex-
pressed the feeling that the attend-
ance might have been somewhat
greater (some had predicted that
2,000 might attend).
All exhibitors were pretty well
agreed, however, that the interest
shown by those attending was on a
very high level, and carried out the
express purpose of the conference.
Many of the personnel working the
booths said that the “education” was
“reciprocal’’—that they would take
back to the factory many valuable
ideas and suggestions gleaned from
their conversations with those at-
tending the affair.
A registration fee of $1.00 served
to keep out curiosity seekers and
others who might have muddled up
the proceedings.
Originally it was planned to have
meeting sessions with technical talks
on Saturday and Sunday mornings
only (May 1 and 2), but in plans
formulated shortly before the meet-
ing opened, full sessions of talks and
company educational movies were
scheduled for both afternoons, also.
In addition, there were ‘question
and answer” forums with boards of
experts answering questions before
the start of each session.

Westinghouse Strike
Vote Remains Doubtful
PITTSBURGH—Whether the CIO
United Electrical Workers will call a
strike against Westinghouse Electric
Corp. in an attempt to achieve its
wage increase and pension demands
still remains in doubt. :
After halting its talks with the
company recently, apparently stymied
by the company’s having reduced
prices on many of its products, the
union had called a meeting of mem-
bers to seek approval for its confer-
ence board to take a strike vote.
This meeting was postponed, re-
portedly because of the weather.
The union is seeking a “‘substantial
wage increase” and a $120 a month
pension for employes 65 years or
older.
Clayton & Lambert
Develops 8-Ft.
Gas Refrigerator
LOUISVILLE, Ky.— An. 8-cu. ft.
gas-fueled, absorption type, house-
hold refrigerator has been developed
by the Clayton & Lambert Mfg. Co.
here after three years of research
and development, stockholders learn-
ed at the recent annual meeting of
the company.
Those attending the meeting were
given a preview of the unit, which
uses a constant pressure air-cooled
system and ammonia as the refrig-
erant. Divided into frozen food and
general refrigerator compartments
with separate doors, the unit main-
tains temperatures of 0° F. and 38°
F. respectively.
“Considerable interest in our re-
frigerator development has been evi-
denced by technicians of gas utilities
who were privileged, in recent weeks, |
to gauge its performance,” Charles
F. Lambert, president, told the stock-
holders.
It was reported that the American

New ‘Freon’ Plant
Boosts Output 60%
EAST CHICAGO, Ind.—A new
plant has begun manufacturing
“Freon” fluorine refrigerants here
and officials of Kinetic Chemicals,
Inc., say it will increase production
capacity for these products by 60%.
Construction of the new plant
started last August.
Shipments from East Chicago are
in ton-capacity containers only.
Smaller cylinders will continue to be
shipped from Carney’s Point, N. J.
However, Kinetic officials warn, more
“Freon-12” cannot be shipped unless
more shipping containers become
available.
Raw materials are now in adequate
supply for the year’s production, they
say, and shipments will be increased

Vacuum Dries Clothes
In Bendix-Rand Washer
SOUTH BEND, Ind.—The “radi-
cally different’? automatic washer
which Bendix Home Appliances, Inc.
acquired when it purchased the H. J.
Rand Washing Machine Corp. re-
cently has as its chief feature an
unusual drying system, it has been
revealed.
Tank of the Rand washer is lined
with rubber. In drying the clothes,
water and air are pulled out of the
washer by a motor-driven pump
which creates a vacuum.
This causes the rubber lining to
collapse, squeezing the clothing dry,
and, in addition, lowers the boiling
point of the water that remains until
it passes off as steam.
Bendix hopes to have the new
washer on the market by this fall.
Maytag Picks Newton for
Automatic Washer Plant
NEWTON, lIowa—Home of the
Maytag Co., this city will also have
the company’s new $5,000,000 auto-
matic washer plant, according to
Fred Maytag II, president.
There had been sharp competition
between Newton and other cities in
Iowa and other states in bidding for
the plant ever since Maytag had
made his original announcement in
February about the new plant.
He had then declared that its loca-
tion was in doubt because of New-
ton’s lack of utility, transportation,
and housing facilities.
Stiff Exam Set
For Contractors
By Calif. Law
Firms Must Have Employe
Who Can Pass Specific
Refrigeration Tests
SAN FRANCISCO — California
firms who want to operate as a refrig-
eration contractor will henceforth be
required to have at least one man
in their employ pass a_ specific
refrigeration examination, according
to an amendment to the state Con-
tractors Licensing Law which became
effective May 1.
Formerly, in order to get a Con-
tractors’ License, it was necessary
for a refrigeration firm to qualify a
man under a general examination on
contracting work, but the law now
reads as follows:
Scope of Examination
Part 1 (Old) Examination will cover
a general knowledge of the con-
tractors’ license law, mechanics’
lien law, labor laws (embraces
question regarding employment
regulation and supervision, work-
men’s compensation insurance,
safety in employments), and com-
mon business knowledge.
Part 2 (New) Sec. 1. Elemental and
fundamental knowledge of refrig-
eration.
Sec. 2. Identification from photo-
graphs of refrigeration tools, parts,
equipment, fittings, devices, etc.
Sec. 3. Nomenclature: Typical
“Freon” installation for a walk-in
box.
Sec. 4. Selecting equipment, esti-
mating quantities, and figuring a
bid on the above “Freon” walk-in
box.
Various segments of the industry
were asked by the state examinations
board to submit material sufficient
to make two or three complete ex-
aminations. The questions will be
rather “stiff,” one authority predicted.
It will be necessary for a firm to
qualify one man in its organization
in order to obtain a license. A
licensed contractor will be enabled to
work on jobs involving any changes
or additions to a _ building. This
means, in effect, that all refrigeration
firms doing installation work would
need a license. Those who did re-
frigeration service work only might
get by without one.
Another big factor that makes it

Redmond Small Motor
Prices Slashed 10-16%
OWOSSO, Mich.—Price reductions
up to 16% on practically all alternat-
ing current induction types of frac-
tional horsepower electric motors
manufactured by Redmond Co., Inc.
here, have been announced by Lewis
Hamlin, executive vice president.
Reductions average approximately
10% on motors formerly selling in
the $2.50 to $8 price range.
Effective May 1, this is the second
price reduction made by Redmond
since last December when a 5% cut
was announced on these same motors.
Boasting a total production ca-
pacity of 35,000 motors per day and
employing 3,000, the company manu-
factures motors up to_45-hp. for use
in a variety of heating, ventilating,
and air conditioning applications.
Concerning these reductions, Ham-
lin said, “Our success in bringing
about certain important manufactur-
ing efficiencies has made these cuts
possible. We believe there is only
one way to avoid the catastrophe of
a serious inflation—make a concen-
trated effort to streamline production
methods, then pass the benefits along
to the consumer.”

Special Biological Unit
Brings Druggist Sales
MIAMI BEACH, Fla. — Dramatic
use of an ordinary domestic refrig-
erator converted for biological and
vaccine storage has built sales con-
siderably for the Prescription Center
here, according to Max and Helen
Rosenbaum, owners.
The refrigerator, an 8-cu. ft.
model, has been outfitted with eight
stainless steel drawers, which occupy
90% of its interior space. Each of
the stainless steel drawers is divided
into a different type of refrigeration-
requiring biological drug, such as
insulin, injectable vitamins, serums,
vaccines, and viruses.
The store carries many unusual
specialties which have made it one
of the best-known prescription stores
in the South—such as a_ special
insulin for diabetic patients which is
available nowhere else in the area.
The front of the refrigerator
features an enameled red cross, with
arms 12 in. long, symbolizing the
medical importance of the box. Let-
tered on the face are the words
—® “biologicals, vaccines, and injectable
vitamins.” ;
Since the refrigerator is set up
immediately behind the window and
adjacent to the entrance, it attracts
far more attention than a refrigera-
tor back in the prescription section,
such as is the usual practice.
Literally thousands of wealthy
Miami Beach visitors, many with
diabetes, and scores of regular cus-
tomers of the apothecary drugstore
have been obtained merely through
sight of the box, according to the
management.

@ “To make this kitchen ventilator a suc-

So Torrington engineers made tests
and studied the unit. With their recom-

fan blade and motor, along with minor
design changes, the manufacturer’s prob-

Must Battle for Sales,
Hildreth Tells Group
SAN FRANCISCO-—Although the
“shadow” of war may hang over the
immediate future of the refrigeration
industry, the sellers of refrigeration
equipment and service will be wise to
gird themselves for another type of
“battle’—the competitive struggle
for sales, it was pointed out by H. F.
Hildreth of Westinghouse Electric
Corp., president of R.E.M.A., in ad-
dressing the Western Refrigeration
Educational Conference here.
“The lush sellers’ market that we
have all come to love so much, where
the customers are on every side of
us, seems to be fast going out of the
window,” Hildreth said. “Every day
brings us closer to the time when we
will again have to sell our services.
“Now, the theme of your confer-
ence is ‘Promotion through Educa-
tion.’
“To me that statement can mean
only one thing. The fellow who is
ready and trained to face a competi-
tive future is the fellow who is going
to win out. From any way that you
look at it, you can’t lose on educa-
tion. It is the one thing that can be
helpful to all of us, in good times
or bad times, peace times or war
times. Whether we continue in a
peaceful economy or whether the
unthinkable happens, we should go
forward with our plans for more
and more education.
“This Educational Conference here
in California is one of the finest
things that has happened to this in-
dustry in a long time. I say this
because this conference has been
brought about through the coopera-
tion of trade associations. It shows
that we in this industry are growing
up to our responsibilities, that we
are learning that we can work to-
gether for the benefit of more people
and through this cooperation, we will
have a better and a stronger refrig-
eration industry.
“The seal of R.S.E.S. carries the
slogan, ‘We do it right.’ If there
ever was a time when you should
take that slogan to light and
analyze what it means to you and
your customers, it is now.
“If I were a service engineer, a
dealer, or a contractor, I would take
immediate steps to check over the
condition of my business. I would
talk to my organization on the need
for courteous, prompt customer serv-
ice.
“T would review my customer lists
and make certain that every one of
them knew that I was set up to take
care of their requirements, both on
service and the sale of new products.
“I would publicize what I could do
for these customers through every
possible means.
“T would check over the condition
of my stocks.
“I would put on a special sales
drive to get rid of any overstocked
items and bring my inventories into
balance.
“I would get my money out of
slow-moving items, even through I
had to sell at some sacrifice.
“I would clean up my store, put my
display floor in order, have proper
lighting and identification.
“IT would make my store a friendly,
tioni
pleasant place to do business. ae
“If I had any dissatisfied cus- — Distt
tomers, I would make every effort to — has |
settle the differences and win them plica'
over to my side, for there is no bet- posec
ter way to advertise than through 7 o)ro¢
the recommendations of satisfied 7 o¢ cy,
customers.” :

AIR CONDITIONING & REFRIGERATION NEWS, MAY 10, 1948
Kelvinator Program May Fit 20,000
For Sales Careers In Next 3 Months
DETROIT—More than 20,000 re-
tail salesmen are expected to be
trained in the next three months as
part of the 1948 phase of Kelvinator’s
continuing program of sales educa-
tion, according to C. T. Lawson, vice
president in charge of Kelvinator
sales, Nash-Kelvinator Corp.
“Kelvinator’s Vocation-in-Sales Pro-
gram meets specific new requirements
of retailers in 1948,” Lawson said.
“Most of them will be enlarging their
sales forces this year, training new
men, and developing their sales edu-
cation activity on a sustained basis.
“Our purpose is to provide dealers
with (1) a simple, effective and
proved method of attracting prospec-
tive salesmen, (2) a scientific, easily
applied procedure for separating
those most likely to fail from those
most apt to succeed, and (3) a train- —
ing program to teach men funda-
mental principles of successful selling
and impart a thorough knowledge of
Kelvinator products.
“We are very pleased with the suc-
cess of the program in the past year,
during which more than 11,000 men
were trained and our retailers pro-

vided with a comprehensive plan for
a profitable sales force.
“A great deal has already been ac-
complished by Kelvinator dealers in
sales education work. But the real
benefits of our program still lie in
the future. As merchandise becomes
progressively more plentiful, as com-
petition is further intensified, dealers
who have taken full advantage of
the opportunity to lay the sales
foundation now will be repaid in sub-
stantial, profitable business.”
In current revision of the program,
which has been in operation more
than a year, Kelvinator has spent
more than $175,000 for visual train-
ing materials alone, Henry L.
Schmutz, director of sales education
said. Factory training of distribu-
tor and zone sales training personnel
was completed late in March and
local schools at key points throughout
the country are currently underway.
Basic material for the program,
Schmutz said, includes procedures
for the attraction of salesmen,
methods for selecting them, through
the use of personnel tests, scoring
keys and an interview guide, text
books and four full-color sound slide
films and four Kodachrome sound
motion pictures.
For the attraction phase of the pro-
gram, dealers are supplied with quan-
tities of the booklet “To A Man In
Search of His Future,’’ which gives
the prospective salesman an insight
into the profession and provides him
with a simple test for rating his
aptitude for the selling field. The
dealer also is given suggestions and
formulas for attracting prospects.
The selection phase of the program
provides the dealer with helpful
guides for the segregation of appli-
cants for sales jobs. A full textbook
on this subject, covering in detail the

Evans Sees No Price Cut
Near on Hamilton Dryers
TWO RIVERS, Wis.—There will
be no price reduction on Hamilton
dryers in the near future, according
to H. G. Evans, vice president in
charge of sales of the Hamilton Mfg.
Co. here.
Pointing out that the company had
maintained its present prices for 17
months, since Nov. 15, 1946, despite
material cost increases of 171%4% and
labor cost increases of 12% in the
same period, Evans said, “After a
careful analysis of material and labor
cost trends, we see no justification
for a reduction in price.”
Allen-Bradley Moves
To New, Larger Quarters
CHICAGO—Local offices of Allen-

motor controls, will be located in
new and larger quarters at 445-

McC. Price is district manager.
Schaefer Appoints Three;
Detroit Branch Opens
MINNEAPOLIS — Schaefer, Inc.,
here has opened a branch office and
warehouse at 1951 East Ferry Ave.
in Detroit and named Thomas
Blackett manager, Harold L. Schae-
fer, president, announced.
Blackett has been Schaefer district
factory representative in the Michi-
gan-Ohio territory for the past sev-
eral years.
At the same time, Schaefer an-
nounced appointment of Ed W.
Flanagan as district factory repre-
sentative with headquarters in Wash-
ington, D. C., and Blackett an-
nounced appointment of Le Roy B.
Schlichter as district factory repre-
sentative with headquarters in Cin-
cinnati.
Flanagan will handle Schaefer
sales in central and western Pennsyl-
vania, West Virginia, Maryland, Dis-
trict of Columbia, and Virginia. He
has been engaged in retail and
wholesale sales of low temperature
equipment and locker plants in the
Ed Flanagan
New England territory since 1940 and
has handled distribution of ice cream
and frozen food cabinets since 1946.
The new Detroit office will handle
sales in Michigan, Ohio, Kentucky,
Le Roy Schlichter
and Indiana. Blackett will actively
cover Michigan and upper Ohio and
Schlichter lower Ohio, Kentucky, and
Indiana.
Schlichter was recently associated
with Cabinet Sales, Inc., Detroit, dis-
tributor of Schaefer ice cream and
frozen food cabinets and home
freezers. He entered the refrigera-
tion field in 1937. He joined Cabinet
Sales in 1947.
Quillen Refrigerater Co.
Files Bankruptcy Petition
INDIANAPOLIS — Clarence A.
Quillen, owner and co-founder of
Quillen Brothers Refrigerator Co.
here, has filed a voluntary petition
for bankruptcy in Federal Court.
He listed indebtedness of $231,818,
with assets of $260,648, including
$1,513.13 bank deposits and $1 cash
on hand. :
Quillen blamed the condition of his
company on lagging sales and the
steel shortage. The steel shortage,
he said, prevented completion of
several contracts, including an order
for $45,000 worth of commercial re-
frigerators, and cancellation of a
$75,000 order for large walk-in re-
frigerators by the Army Quarter-
master.
The company only recently ex-
panded its plant and had planned
expansion of operations for this
year, when the steel shortage and
sudden decline in sales set in.
According to John A. Alexander,
attorney for Quillen, the 17-year-old
company “just ran out of cash.”

AIR CONDITIONING & REFRIGERATION NEWS, MAY 10, 1948

INSIDE DUPE
&y GEORGE » TAUBENECK
(Concluded from lied 1, Column 1)
people, including President Truman;
Paul Hoffman (who, as head of the
Economic Cooperation Administra-
tion, is about to become one of the
two or three most influential men in
the world); Willard Thorp,, Asst.
Secretary of State for Economic
Affairs; Thomas B. McCabe, Chair-
man, Federal Reserve System; vari-
ous people in the new NSRB
(remember those letters!); and sea-
soned members of the Washington
press corps.
We don’t have the whole story yet,
and there are a lot more people to
see. But we can pass on to you a
few items of off-the-record informa-
tion right now. And, as they used
to say in advertisements: ‘Watch
this space for further important
announcements!”
Quick Summary
A quick appraisal of the “fix we’re
in’ could be summarized as follows:
1. The war scare is no phoney.
Russia won’t stop until she’s stopped.
2. Practically nobody expects us
to be shooting this year or even next
year. Most authorities predict the
explosion for sometime in the 1950’s,
with the majority expecting it in
1950, 1951, or 1952.
3. If Stalin starts shooting at us
sooner, it will be the most disastrous
mistake any ruler has ever made.
(More on this in a later “Inside
Dope” we hope—some of the whys
for this statement.)
4. The real reason Eisenhower has
refused to run for President: he
would be more useful to his country
as Chief of the Armed Forces. It is
assumed that World War III could
begin during the next Presidential
term-of-office.
5. It will be quite awhile before
the rearmament program will affect
many businessmen. New “controls”
probably won’t come soon. Everyone
wants the country to be healthy and
the economy sound before the shoot-
ing starts. Don’t let big appropria-
tions for defense alarm you. Such
authorizations are “slow money.”
6. Harry Truman is a mighty nice
fellow, but he probably won’t be
around next year. Put your money
on (1) Stassen, (2) Vandenburg.
Those who know Vandenburg well
believe he will make a great one-term
president. (If Stassen is elected, he
might hold office longer than Roose-
velt! We'll have more to say about
this prophecy later.)
White House Visit
Meeting President Harry S. Tru-
man for the first time is a pleasant
surprise ... almost a shock. He’s so
much more impressive than I’d ex-
pected him to be.
First off, he’s so healthy in appear-
ance. The contrast with Roosevelt,
whom we saw many times in Wash-
ington from 1933 on, is startling.
When you saw him in his office,
Roosevelt was a bit unkempt and
untidy. Truman is without doubt one
of the best-dressed, most faultlessly
tailored, and handsomely groomed
specimens of Men of Distinction
you'll ever see. (What a picture he’d
make for the Lord Calvert advertisc-
ments. )
With Roosevelt, you were alwars
conscious of his affliction. You
walked around behind his desk to
shake hands with him while he re-
mained seated. Harry Truman comes
around in front of his desk to shake
hands. His carriage is erect, his
movements vigorous and emphatic,
and he looks just as if he had stepped
from a barber’s chair, following 10
hours of sleep the night before—and
a long vacation in a sunny climate.
The U. S. Presidency is supposed
to be a man-killing job. Harry Tru-
man appears to be thriving in it, and
enjoying every minute of it. From
what he said, and from the way he
looked, we doubt very much that he
will step aside for another candidate.
He’s “fit as a fiddle and raring to
go,” and entirely confident that he’ll
be the Democrat’s presidential
nominee.
There’s one thing that Truman has
in common with FDR, in an intimate
interview or press conference: like
Roosevelt, Truman _ oversimplifies.
He makes big issues seem like
ABC’s. With Truman, a controversy
is an open-or-shut case. Like Roose-
velt, his side is white, the other black.
But there’s a big difference between
Truman and FDR in the presentation
of their oversimplifications.
Roosevelt tossed off his dictums
almost condescendingly, with an airy
wave of the long cigarette holder in
the direction of the peasants.
Truman knows he is an ordinary
fellow, and acts that way. He also
assumes, it would seem, that those
he addresses are also sweet, un-
’Tain’t so you say, but consider this: often
less than 15% of the selling price of your
equipment is represented by the refrigera- _life..
tion unit you install. Yet the satisfaction of
your customer is fully dependent upon the
uninterrupted operation of that refrigera-
tion unit.
It’s a great sales advantage when you can say
“we are using Brunner units.”
Your custom-
ers know of Brunner’s reputation for quiet
running, low maintenance, dependable long
-and they are being kept posted through
the pages of trade journals they read for guid-
ance. The best part is this: it costs you no
more to equip with recognized and preferred
Brunner refrigeration units.

spoiled, and unsophisticated. He
uses the word “‘implement,”’ too much.
But he says “damn” often, too; and
that helps.
FDR was stagey; he had the grand
manner. Harry Truman is relatively
humble. At the same time, he is
surprisingly self-confident. Above
all he seems sincere. It’s almost im-
possible not to like the fellow, and to
feel sympathetic with and for him.
When you leave his office at the
White House, you wish fervently
that he had the gift for choosing
more competent advisers. He’s
an awfully nice guy, and_ the
apotheosis of the “average’’ citizen.
Anyway, that’s how we sized him up.
What the NSRB Is Up To
Arthur Hill of Charleston, West
Virginia, is top man at the NSRB—
the outfit which may some day tell
you what you're going to do and not
going to do. Before coming to Wash-
ington he was a Greyhound Bus line
executive.
He and Ferdinand Eberstadt are
working on these two premises:
(1) In peacetime we should do
what we don’t have the time or the
resources to do after the shooting
starts.
(2) In wartime, all basic re-
sources—like oil, steel, electricity,
and transportation—are insufficient.
Put the two together, and you can
guess what they’re going to do next;
expand steel-making capacity, en-
large oil-producing capacity, increase
electricity-generating capacity, and
build lots of planes, trucks, freight
cars, and locomotives.
Next: build up stockpiles of scarce
materials.
Money already authorized by Con-
gress for storing up reserves of such
things as manganese, tin, cobalt,
cinchona bark, lead, platinum, copper,
diamonds, natural rubber, and other
items we have to import, is largely
unspent at the moment.
The Munitions Board, which has
the responsibility of procuring these
stockpiles, wisely has refrained from
competitive bidding for those items
which civilian industries can’t get
enough of—lest inflation get out-of-
hand, and civilian suppliers be handi-
capped in their race against burgeon-
ing demand.
Watch for this stockpiling program
to be stepped up, however. That
may hurt some business a little.
Straws In the Wind
Aluminum and fractional horse-
power motors for planes, steel for
freight cars and vessels and oil rigs
and electric power plants (also cop-
per), and lead for atomic-ray shield-
ing: these will be demanded more
and more by the slowly accelerating
rearmament program.
Right now there’s heat and pres-
sure on the manufacturing of oil-
consuming devices: oil burners for
homes, diesel engines, etc. Railroads
are being encouraged to switch their
orders from diesels to steam loco-
motives, for example.
And oil burner manufacturers may
be loaded up with orders for arma-
ment items they can make, thus
keeping them from making more oil
burners. (Here is the new pattern
for “reconversion.” If a civilian in-
dustry needs to be curbed, the NSRB
can try to keep it in business by
sending munitions orders its way).
Another program which the NSRB
is working on is obviously long-range
in its implications. (It assumes that
Russia wisely will refrain from at-
tacking us for several years.) This
program is the strategic relocation
of war industries. (The consequences
of this remote program are —
wow! . . earthquaking is a mild
term for them).
Certainly it would be wise for any
manufacturer who contemplates the
erection of a new plant to consult
with the NSRB as to location before
going ahead.
Big idea of the NSRB is to prepare
a set of plans and strategies for ip.
dustry and business in case war
comes; just as the Army and Navy
prepare, in advance of conflict. de.
tailed directions for repelling any
enemy attack anywhere.
Could be that the existence of t rege
plans—for the first time in our his.
tory—will postpone World War I
for a long time. We hope!
Paul Hoffman, Salesman
It’s refreshing to find a life ong :
salesman in government for a change,
Paul Hoffman, who _ resigned his
$96,000-a-year job as presiden’ of
Studebaker to head up the Econc mic
Cooperation Administration (the new
bureau which will put the Mar;hal!
Plan into effect) at $20,000 a ear,
is definitely a salesman.
He sold so many Studebakers ip
California as a young man tha’ he
rose to become president of his
company.
During the latter stages of World
War II he headed up the Committee
for Economic Development, which
sold American business men on pre-
serving American Free Enterprise by
going to bat for it through: (1)
their own demonstrations of its
efficacy, and (2) through explana-
tions of what makes Free Enterprise
“tick” via advertising and publicity.
And now, as the man who’s going
to try to keep Europe and Asia tied
to America by spending our dollars,
he’s. still selling even while he’s
giving stuff away.
As he puts its, he was “catapulted”
into this job—one of the two of
three most influential positions in the
world today—but when he landed on
his feet, both feet were racing ahead.
Like Henry Ford II, his first task
is that of proselyting the best execu-
tives and experts he can locate, and
like ‘‘young Henry” he’s grabbing
them quickly.
No Rest for
Averell Harriman
Right off the bat, he persuaded
Averell Harriman to resign his cabi-
net post (Secretary of Commerce)
to become the ECA’s “Roving Am:
bassador.” This was no easy selling ~
job, because the wealthy Harriman is"
mighty tired of travelling around
Europe, arguing with inferiority-
complexed statesmen, trying to sleep ~
in airplane bucket seats, and eating
Europe’s menus.
But Hoffman realized that Harri-
man’s experience and knowledge 0
Europe’s problems and prima donnis —
would give the ECA a six-month —
head-start if Harriman could be sold
on sacrificing, once more, his com: —
fort and private life for the good of
his country.

GO. EN, Ind.— Appointment of
R. V
contr
Slark as manager of heating
sales, and the opening of a
Cleveland sales of-
fice headed by W.
S. Lossie have
been announced by
Penn Electric
Switch Co. here.
In making the
announcement, R.
H. Luscombe, gen-
eral sales man-
ager, said that E.
A. Price will suc-
; ceed Clark, who
R \. Clark was promoted
from istrict manager of the com-
pany. Dayton office. Clark, who has
been vith Penn for 20 years, will
headg arter at the main office here.
Pri was formerly manager of the
comp .1y’s Dallas, Tex. district, and
will | replaced by James Stiver who
rece!‘ly joined the staff after serving
‘he air conditioning division of
Gene’al Electric.
Penn’s new Cleveland office will be
located in Room 902 of the N.B.C.
building; Lossie, who will manage
this district, served with Minneapolis-
Honeywell Regulator Co. before join-
ing Penn.
Using Cases Properly Nets
Grocer Saving on Bills
MIAMI—Savings in electricity are
made at the Table Supply Super-
market here because all refrigerated
cases are kept well stocked.
“If open-type refrigerated cases are
not kept adequately stocked, warm
air circulates more freely and uses
up more current,” explains William
Gross, manager of the store.
Gross has instructed stock clerks
to make sure each case is stocked
properly. As a result, the store gets
the maximum value for each kilowatt
hour of electricity consumed. ;
Additional savings in electricity are
made by defrosting and cleaning the
five meat and fish refrigerators and
six open self-service cases on a
regular schedule, he said.
Refrigerators which have an accu-
mulation of ice on the coils use as
much as one-third more power, the
store manager points out.
In cleaning out the cases, a clerk
takes out removable parts, scours
them, drys them, and inspects them
for mechanical defects.
Gross cuts his electric bills even
more sharply by extinguishing all
lights inside cases at night and by
covering open self-service cases.

‘Refrigerated Self-Service Is
Stressed at Acme Supermarket
BINGHAMTON, N. Y.—Refrigera-
tion is the big talking point for the
new Acme Supermarket just opened
at 185 Court St. here.
The market has the first 100%
self-service meat department in the
city. Every item is plainly marked
and kept fresh by constant refrigera-

Refrigerated self-service produce
cases are another feature.
NCRSA, CRMA Meet To
Pick Trade, Public
Relations Commi ttee
MINNEAPOLIS — The National
Commercial Refrigerator Sales Asso-
ciation will meet with the Commer-
cial Refrigerator Manufacturers’ As-
sociation in Chicago sometime in
May to set up a joint trade and
public relations committee, according
to William C. Bader, president of the
NCRSA.
Both organizations have appointed
committees for the May meeting
which will be held at the CRMA’s
Chicago headquarters.
Appointed to the CRMA’s commit-
tee are Paul Sullivan, executive
secretary of the manufacturers’ asso-
ciation, E. L. Stultz, president of the
Viking Refrigeration Co., Kansas
City, Mo., and William J. Stelpflug
of the Hussmann Refrigeration Co.,
St. Louis.
Serving on the NCRSA committee
are Bader, R. H. Muehlberg, execu-
tive secretary of the NCRSA, and I.
W. Shell, president of the Lee Shell
Co., Chicago.
Bader explained that an attempt
will be made to work out better rela-
tions between manufacturers and dis-
tributors. The two committees will
study fair trade practices and opera-
tional procedures and a trades rela-
tions committee will be organized to
coordinate activities of the groups.
The first step to bring the two
national organizations together was
taken at the annual meeting of the
NCRSA in Cleveland last February.

LOS ANGELES — Karl Weber,
president of Weber Showcase & Fix-
ture Co., Inc. here has reported a
decline of $490,782 in the net profit
for the year ended Dec. 31, 1947,
compared to the previous year.
The net profit for 1947 was $814,-
959, equal to $1.87 per common share.
Figures for the 1946 period were
$1,305,741 in profits, equal to $2.95
per common share. Sales for the two
periods were given as $14,014,468 for
1947 and $14,286,385 for 1946.
Weber explained that the decline in
net profits was due largely to the
revaluation of surplus inventories,
additional selling costs necessitated
by more competitive market condi-
tions, and a strike during 1947.

‘Big8 Appliance Dealer’s Association’ Formed
In Detroit To Share Advertising Expenses
DETROIT — Finding the cost of
large newspaper advertising displays
too much for them individually, eight
independent appliance dealers here
recently banded together to adver-
tise and purchase cooperatively as
the “Big 8 Appliance Dealer’s Asso-
ciation.”
Two large cooperative advertising
insertions so far have’ brought
“marvelous results,” according to
Sam Ejichner, owner of King Home
Appliances, Inc., and one of the
“big + gg
Other member firms of the asso-
ciation, which is a closed affair
limited to the present members, ac-
cording to Eichner, include Adams
Appliance, International Radio Sales,
Pleasure & Leisure Shop, Inc., Kay-
Bee Appliance Co., Witbeck House-
hold Appliance, Garden City Furni-
ture Co., and Cadillac Music Shop.
Officers for the group have not yet

been selected but their election is
due to take place soon, Eichner said.
John Duncan of International
Radio Sales stated that the group
intends to meet monthly and at
present plans to run cooperative ad-
vertising twice a month.
This advertisement, participated in
by seven of the members (Cadillac
Music Shop was missing), empha-
sized the fact that these “lucky 7”
stores had combined their buying
power to bring the consumer out-
standing values.
Price and the _ availability of
“easy terms to suit your purse”
struck the dominant note. A pop-up
toaster, a General Electric washer,
G-E vacuum cleaner and attach-
ments, and G-E Gold Seal radio were
displayed.
Below copy on the merchandise,
the names, addresses, and telephone
numbers of the seven cooperating
stores were listed. At the bottom of
the advertisement below the company
listings appeared two coupons.
One of the coupons offered two
cases of soap free with the purchase
of any make of washing machine.
The other, of cut-out design, invited
those who could not come in to the
stores to mail their name and ad-
dress to the nearest “Lucky 7” out-
let if they desired to purchase a
washer, vacuum cleaner, or radio. A
store representative would call at
their home, the coupon promised.
All portions of the advertisement,
which was \%4-page in size, pulled
very well, according to Hichner.

Small Dealer Defies ‘Experts,’ Prospers
In Face of ‘Big Store’ Competition
By Phil B. Redeker
LOS ANGELES—Those marketing
experts who have predicted tough go-
ing in the metropolitan areas for the
small independent appliance dealer
would be confounded by Wynn &
Belknap, a dealer here.
The “experts” see even neighbor-
hood independents finding the going
tough in the face of competition
offered by department stores and
chains. And naturally that competi-
tion in the Los Angeles area is on
a supercolossal scale—the May Co.
with its “largest and most modern
appliance annex in the country,” and
other stores and chains with their
special offers and promotions.
But the Wynn & Belknap store is
no neighborhood establishment. It is
located at the corner of S. Olive and
Olympic Blvd., which is right down-
town in Los Angeles. It is sur-
rounded by big office buildings and
commercial, rather than mercantile
establishments.
“Where do you find your custom-
ers?” it was inquired of O. E. Belk-
, hap, one of the proprietors.

“While a lot of them come from
our old customer lists,” came the
reply, “many of them are from the
office buildings around here—noon-
time and after-work shoppers.”
“Don’t the big glamor appliance
outlets hurt you?” the dealer was
asked.
“Only when they have a sale fea-
turing a price special,” was the
answer. “We feel the effect for a
few days, but that’s all.”
Wynn & Belknap maintains a serv-
ice department. The owners believe
that they could not have worked old
customer lists so successfully for new
sales if they hadn’t been able to do
the service work on the appliances
they sold.
Another rather surprising item in
this Los Angeles dealer’s operation,
in view of its downtown location, is
the fact that it has enjoyed a good
sale on home freezers.
“We've sold most of the freezers
with an economy story,” said one of
the proprietors. “Meats are both ex-
pensive and scarce in this area, and
it hasn’t been hard to interest people
in the story of what the freezer can
do for them in providing them ‘vith
better meat at a lower price.
“Also, we’ve found that people are
interested in ‘freezer insurance’
against food going bad in case the
freezer should fail to operate. We
handle the Coolerator freezer, wiiich
has such an insurance policy, and it
has been an important selling point,”
While the store has no regular
outside salesmen, it does employ
some part-time salesmen who are
paid on a straight commission basis,
Such men hold other regular jobs,
but turn up leads and contact pros.
pects in their spare time.
Some market changes in the past
few months have been noted by Belk-
nap. Prospects are looking for less
expensive television sets and refrig-
erators. Much of the “cream” mar-
ket is gone.
One product that has aroused Belk.
nap’s enthusiasm is the Thor clothes
washer-dishwasher combination, with
buyers being especially enthusiastic
over the dishwashing feature.

Armstrong Advertisement
Tells Refrigerator Story
LANCASTER, Pa.—One of the
most important applications of insu-
lation—in the domestic refrigerator—
is never seen by the consumer. In
most cases, the consumer doesn’t
know that insulation is used and is
indispensable in his refrigerator. The
story of how insulation serves is
explained in a graphic, full color
page advertisement entitled “How a
Refrigerator Is Made” appearing
May 8 in the Saturday Evening Post.
Presented by the Armstrong Cork
Co. from information gathered from
leading manufacturers of domestic
refrigerators, the advertisement tells
readers how insulation is used so
that low temperatures can be main-
tained and heat kept out.
The presentation features a cut-
away view of a typical modern re-
frigerator plant and takes the reader
through the progressive steps in the
manufacture of refrigerators, explain-
ing and illustrating where insulation
is applied. |
The copy reads in part:
“|... Do you know what a refrig-
erator really is? Most people think
it ‘manufactures cold.’ Of course,
that’s wrong. There’s no such thing
as ‘cold.’ It’s just the absence of
heat. The mechanism of a refriger-
ator is really a pump that draws
heat out. Insulation keeps the heat
from getting back in again. The
walls of the cabinet are filled with
insulation, protected on both sides by
a steel shell.”
Explaining how the refrigerator is
made, and showing by the accom-
panying cutaway view the progres-
sive steps in the manufacturing oper-
ation, the copy states:
“Railroad cars bring the steel in
and it moves across the ground floor
where giant presses and welding
equipment form the doors, the outer
shell, and the inner shell, which is
called the ‘liner.’ The liners are
carried upstairs and into acid and
chemical baths for cleaning. Then
they’re dipped in black porcelain and
dried.
“In a furnace, built of insulating
firebrick to keep the inside hot and
the outside cool, the porcelain is
fused to the steel. The liners get a
7
coat of white porcelain in the spray
booth and then go back to the fur-
nace for a final firing.
“On another line, outer shells and
doors are cleaned, the finish is
sprayed on and baked in insulated
ovens.
“The outer shell has now reached
the main assembly line. Here it is
snugly lined with insulation, the
material that holds heat out. Then
the liner goes in, sandwiching the
insulation between the two metal
walls. The doors, also insulated, join
the cabinet and the mechanism is
installed. Then the complete refrig-
erator is tested and crated for ship-
ment.”
Offered free to refrigerator manu-
facturers and personnel and other
readers of the advertisement are 21
in. by 22 in. full color enlargements
of the cutaway view of the refrig-
erator plant.

Commercial Frozen Fillet
Package Planned by Firm
BOSTON—Pleased with the public
acceptance given its 1-lb. domestic
package of frozen fish fillets, the
Atlantic Coast Fisheries Co. here has
announced that it will start produc-
tion of a 4-lb. pack for restaurants
and hotels on May 15.
The new restaurant pack will con-
sist of a slab of frozen fish fillets
measuring 10 by 14 by % in. Three
cellophane wrapped slabs will be
shipped together in a cardboard con-
tainer, according to Laurence T.
Hopkinson, president.
The company’s Glace Bay, Nova
Scotia plant will produce the restau-
rant pack. However, the pack was
developed in the firm’s plant here
and was market tested in local res-
taurants and hotels.
The 1-lb. pack, being turned out at
a rate of 8,000 per day in Atlantic
Coast Fisheries’ Newfoundland affili-
ate plant, is being sold so rapidly
that the company plans to double
production in the near future, Hop-
kinson said.
Thief Gets Stored Meat
But Has No ‘Beef’
PINEDALE, Wyo.— Ken Symes,
proprietor of the Symes’ rental locker
and packing plant here, is looking
forward to Christmas, due to an
unusual turn of events.
A thief recently broke into the
plant, pried a lock off a cold stor-
age compartment and made away
with two hind quafters of grain fed
beef, a whole hog, four hams, and
eight sides of bacon.
He was no garden variety of thief,
however, and left a note, reading:
“For this you get a present next
Christmas.”

Heroes— American Style
EVERAL years ago, Clifford Raymond wrote a piece on hero
worship for the magazine section of the Chicago Tribune. His thesis
was this: although many biographers and journalists have tried indus-
triously to debunk the fables in U. S. history, the attitude of the masses
Do You Hawe ‘One Foot In the Door’? toward national heroes hadn’t changed very much.
As far as most Americans are concerned, the tales of George
Washington chopping down the cherry tree, tossing a dollar across the
Potomac, and freezing with his men at Valley Forge are still in vogue
ee - eer a despite all attempts of latter-day historians and carping scholars to
depict the worshipped Father of His Country more as a susceptible
human than as a demi-god.
No expose of Washington as “an unsympathetic son,” “a failure in
war,” “a touchy superior,” and a “vehement scold” could discourage
any youngster who reveres him as the honest, stalwart general.
A similar case can be made for the fable of the Great Emancipator,
Abraham Lincoln. Later revelations of Lincoln’s life and works have
done “more to justify the doctrine of human perfectibility than the
legend... .”
But, alas, even the mortal Lincoln cannot win allegiance to a legend.
“His pattern is not right. He is too dubious, uncertain, unmarked
by fate, and unclaimed by destiny. He is not the product of a design
manifest from the beginning.” .
The real Lincoln is a stranger to the copy-books. He is the-Lincoln
“of the Clary Grove Gang, of the Vandalia intrigues, of the state bank
scandals, the Lincoln of anonymous letter writing, unhappy domestic
life, questionable stories, ‘political trickery, morbid, despondency and
melancholia, hesitant and uncertain political principles . . . the remorse-
less driver of armies... .” |
Such a conception of the Great Emancipator is foreign. It is wholly
unacceptable to the large mass of people because it does not constitute
a clear, bold picture “worked with a few primary colors.”
“In a world in which perfectibility is a creed,” a philosopher has
said, “. . . unqualified illustrations of it are required as a moral
foundation.”
And again:
“Inspiring, gratifying, and sustaining hero worship cannot abide
qualifications. There must not only be absolute qualities, but destiny,
purpose, plan, design, and fulfillment must be indicated.”
All of which is a left-handed indictment of the American people
for something worse than naivete. But before you progress to the most
obvious question: “Why are we so naive?” ask yourself a more ele-
mentary one: “Is it entirely true?”
Nearly 20 years have elapsed since these indictments were entered.
And during that time there has arisen another generation which, in its
most formative years, has had the hero-concept kicked around plenty.
What may have been true of the 20's certainly is not wholly true of
the late 40's.
The rise, fall, and resurgence of dictatorships among various nations
; have discredited here the idea of the benevolent, despotic, infallible
Bonderized products look better longer! a
ere ae ae ne Leader. Whatever the lengths of the hero, today he is recognized as 4
human being. Aye, with more strengths than weaknesses—but nonethe-
less human, susceptible to error, regret, and even failure. The Leader is
identified with the Masses.
World War II, of course, went a long way toward dispelling in the
American mind the idea of the perfect hero. Many of the generals

BONDERIZING Holds Paint to Metal .. . PARKERIZING Inhibits Rust ... PARCO LUBRIZING Retards Wear on Friction Surfaces human, they die human. And that’s the way we want ’em.
It’s the Bonderite spray! Metal parts traveling through it emerge
with a close-grained coating of nonmetallic Bonderite crystals, ready
to take and hold the final paint finish.
The Bonderite spray builds long life for paint. By inhibiting rust
and corrosion and providing a secure anchor for the paint film, Bonderizing
acts to prolong fine appearance and service life. Bonderizing is fast, eco-
nomical, simply and positively controlled. Results are uniformly effective.
Refrigerators, home freezers, air conditioning units—and many other metal
products on which a Jasting quality paint finish is important—are Bonderized.
Guard its good looks—and your customers’ satisfaction
—by Bonderizing before the final finish. It costs little,
adds much. Write today for full information.

‘Ninety Six’ Cotton Mills
Getting Air Conditioning
NINETY SIX, S. C.-— Installation
of air conditioning equipment is
under way at the Ninety Six Cotton
Mills. The equipment is being in-
stalled by the Air Engineering Co.,
of Charlotte, N. C.
Officials pointed out that Ninety
Six is the second of three textile
mills in the same organization to be
equipped with air conditioning ma-
chinery. The work at No. 1 plant,
Mathews Cotton Mills, is now com-
plete. Additional air conditioning
will be installed in all areas soon.
Two large towers and one smaller
tower are being erected at the
Ninety Six Mill, it was stated. The
two large towers will air condition
the first three floors of the main
building. The fourth floor will be air
conditioned by units set in the moni-
tor section of the roof. The third
tower will contain machinery to
condition the new four-story addition
to the main mill building.

We merely ask the question to emphasize a point.
In that year, 1924, usAIRco was very active in the
Air Conditioning business. We were serving the first
industry that made a partner of comfort cooling—the
moving picture industry.
There weren’t too many people in the Air
Conditioning business in 1924. And while usAIRco
never laid any claim to inventing Air Conditioning . . .
we’ve been in it a long time . .

refinement and growth. usAIRco engineers have made
some important contributions to the industry.
Think back to 1924 . . . and from then till now
usAIRco has acquired a sixth sense for the design and
manufacture of good equipment . . . and for the
natural and simple application of that equipment to

The years from 1924 to the present haven’t all been
glory years. It required an instinct for survival to stay
around which is another way of saying that it is,a habit

like to experience that type of service, just send us

Novel Installation
Boosts Cigar Sales
FT. WAYNE, Ind.—A novel air
conditioning installation which has
brought a heavy increase in cigar
sales in the new Humidor Room of
Meyer’s Drug Co.’s new store here.
The drugstore, one of the most
modern in the country, borrowed a
cue from the old-time retail tobac-
consit who kept cigars in wet cedar
barrels, to “dramatize” the cigar
stock. :
As shown, the Humidor Room is a
glassed-in closet-size enclosure at the
right of the tobacco department, done
in bright green with white frame-
work around the glass windows.
The interior is lined with rich

cedar wood which is also used for
shelving and supports through the
display structure. More than 100
boxes of cigars can be stored on the
shelving, readily seen by heavy
traffic at the front counters.
A neon sign identifies the display
with “Humidor Fresh Cigars” while
another reads “Cigars Factory Fresh
—By the Box.”
Air conditioning is provided by a
tiny blower and coil unit with 1%-hp.
motor, sufficient to maintain a
smooth 60° in the humidor area.
Moisture is provided by two electric
light bulbs immersed in glass jars of
water, which provide mild heat
enough to give high humidity.
Downtown businessmen are en-
couraged to buy by the box, and
keep their cigars in the room,
identified by name.

Year-Round Conditioning |
At Radio Station WMRB
Valued at $150,000
JACKSONVILLE, Fla.—Year-rcoung
air conditioning for the new $150 000
home of radio station WMRB here
was recently installed by Condi.

contractor.
The station, claimed to be on» of
the first in the South to adopt Fy
broadcasting, possesses a modern stic
single story structure that cont.ing
five studios, general offices, and on.
trol room.
Three Trane Climate Chan-ers
were used to handle the air condi-
tioning job, each covering a particu.
lar zone.
Zone A includes all general off:ces,
Here a direct expansion coil cools the
air from 86.2° dry bulb and 69.2°
wet bulb down to 73.7° dry bulb and
62.8° wet bulb.
Zone B, the largest to be condi-
tioned. covers four studios and the
control room. The direct expansion
coil of the Climate Changer in this
zone cools the air from 86.4° dry
bulb and 69.7° wet bulb’ down to
69.5° dry bulb and 62.3° wet bulb.
Zone C consists of studio A, which
contains orthacoustic, high fidelity
turntables for playing records and
transcriptions. The unit that services
this zone can also service the control
room by means of a manually oper.
ated damper.
Air in this zone is cooled from
86.8° dry bulb and 70.1° wet bulb
down to 69.5° dry bulb and 62.3° wet
bulb.
In all, zones a Trane type C heat-
ing coil operating on 10 lbs. steam
produces a final temperature of 117°.
Two Trane evaporative condensers
handle the condensation of the direct
expansion refrigerant with a mini-
mum usage of water.

and refrigeration equipment for a
new veterans’ hospital to be erected
here, the Army Corps of Engineers
announced recently.
Construction contracts for the 1,000
bed hospital totalled $14,000,000,
Army officials said.
Just slip a screw driver under the range spring
and lift to release the tension. That’s all you do
to flush and clear the valve seat of foreign mat-
ter which may accumulate, especially in new in-
stallations. Here’s another big advantage of Penn
water valves which are protected from corrosion
and sediment because water can’t come in con-
tact with the range spring or sliding parts.
Built in threaded and flanged styles, in a wide
range of sizes. See your wholesaler or write for
bulletin R-1986-B, giving complete details.

“5. Huge clearance sales in news-

‘Buy retail at wholesale prices.’
“And then,’ Hart continued, “he
mentioned the small operator, with no
salesroom, operating from his car
with a small overhead. Of course
this fellow had less selling expense
than the man on Main Street, who
maintains a large display room with

expense usually leads to large differ-

‘Apparently they are the practices

‘Now you have heard about the

causes.

“Insofar as controlling the dis-

What's New
Russell Electric Makes
Type 480 Small Motor
CHICAGO—Russell Electric Co.
here has announced its new “Ray-
theon Type 480” induction motor,
available in split phase, single, and
two value capacitor type.
Supplied in 2, 4, or 6 poles with
horsepowers ranging from 1% to %,
the motor has a diameter of only
5.0 in., it is pointed out.
Long life and trouble-free opera-
tion are said to be assured by sleeve
bearings with spring loaded wicking,
large reservoirs, and precision oil
slingers.
The motors are supplied with spe-
cial details on single or double shaft
extensions with open or totally en-
closed die-cast aluminum housing
with standard or special oil tubes,
according to Russell.
Food Cabinet Includes
Hotplates, Refrigerator
CHICAGO—The “Boterie,” a small
food preparation cabinet that includes
a 2-cu. ft. refrigerator, is being in-
troduced here for sale nationally by
Jefferson Industries, Inc.
Jefferson Foltz, president, claims
the ‘“Boterie” contains everything ex-
cept the kitchen sink—and that will
be included in a later model.
Actually the unit is a wooden cabi-
net measuring 43 in. by 34 in. by
20 in. Across the top is a recessed
linoleum covered cooking surface that
provides space for three hotplates.
The back wall contains an electrical
outlet to which the hotplates can be
connected.
Beneath the cooking surface, the
cabinet is divided into the refrigera-
tor on the right half and a cutting
board, silver drawer, and two shelves
on the left.
The porcelain refrigerator is insu-
lated with Fiberglas and is powered
by a Copeland unit.
Two doors and a lid conceal the
working surfaces when the cabinet
is not in use. Suggested retail price
is $259.
Foltz expects to merchandise the
“Boterie”’ by placing samples in
stores and delivering purchased units
direct to the customer. He antici-
pates a need for the unit in offices,
apartments, and upper income homes.

Two-Temperature Control Valve
refrigerating system where one compressor
cools more than one unit and where it is desir-
able to more accurately control temperatures in
the various units. It closely maintains a pressure
in the coil at a level above the operating
pressure of the machine.
An exclusive feature of this valve is the provi-
sion for by-passing the automatic valve in case
it is desired to pump all the refrigerant from
the coil. By means of this by-pass
the automatic valve can, in effect, be cut out
of the system and the coil opened directly to

Car or Truck Cooler Uses
Evaporative Principle
LOS ANGELES—Using the prin-
ciple of evaporative cooling, a new
Sea-Breez cooling unit for cars and
trucks has been introduced by Sea-
Breez Car Cooler, Inc. here.
Mounted on the window sill of the
front door of a car or the cab door
of a truck, the unit keeps inside
temperatures 10° below the outside,
it is claimed. The cooler contains a
well holding 5 qts. of water and a
round cylinder of aspen wood in a
wire mesh which is revolved in the
_ water by the pull of a small handle.
It must be revolved approximately
every 20 minutes.
Air collected by a scoop in the
front of the unit is forced by car
motion through the cylinder and falls
into the bottom of the car. Although
the window on which the cooler is
mounted remains open, pressure built
up inside the car by the cooled air
prevents outside air being forced in
through the open window, the manu-
facturer claims.
Units are made for either right-
hand or left-hand door mounting.
Low-Humidity Biological
Unit Stops Label Peeling
KENDALLVILLE, Ind. — A new
biological refrigerator, Model SA20D,
has been announced by McCray
Refrigerator Co. here.
Fourteen stainless steel drawers
are provided in two vertical rows in
the upright case. Twelve of the
drawers are 14% in. wide, 16% in.
long, and 3% in. deep, with the bot-
tom drawer on each side having a
depth of 5% in. Each drawer, ac-
cording to the company is provided
with finger-tip pull and a tab for
labeling.
Roomy top shelves provide storage
for items too large for the drawers.
An average temperature of 45° F.,
said to be ideal for biologicals, is
maintained. Humidity is kept low
by means of a special valve to pre-
vent labels from coming off the
packages.
The drawer assemblies are also
available separately to be installed
in the McCray Model SA20 after re-
moval of the standard shelves.
Dual Thermometer Gives
Room, Locker Temperature
SKOKIE, Ill. — A_ dual-purpose
thermometer that records both rocm
and refrigerator temperatures, in-
tended for use in locker plants, food
stores, and homes, has been intro.
duced by the Jas. P. Marsh Corp,
here.
Called the Marsh ‘Duo-Thern ,”
the instrument contains two thrr-
mometers, the upper or freezer sczle
reading from -30 to 65° F. and tie
lower or room scale reading from
20 to 80° F. 2
The freezer thermometer is a
Marsh distant reading Bourdon tube
type provided with 5 ft. of capillary
tubing. Thus the temperature sen:i-
tive bulb can be placed in the refriz-
erator and the instrument locat:d
outside at any convenient point.
Room temperature is indicated »>y
a Marsh bi-metallic thermometer.
The capillary tubing is_ slender
enough to pass between the gasket
and jamb of a closed refrigerator
door, according to the company.
The Duo-Therm is housed in a
black satin case with chromium trim.
Furnace Can Be Installed
Without Cutting Joists |
=
SAN FRANCISCO—The new shal-
low model Fraser & Johnston “Lo-
Boy” furnace is only 26% in. deep
overall, so that it can be installed
below low floors. It is available in
both dual-wall and floor models.
The Lo-Boy is designed especially
for those homes, schools, stores,
churches, and other buildings without
basement facilities.
Dual-wall models feature the ,.new
Fraser & Johnston “Bi-Flo” register
head, which eliminates floor grilles.
The Bi-Flo register head is installed
in the wall between two areas so that
either one or both can be heated.
Besides being extremely shallow,
the Lo-Boy Floor Furnace is only
14 in. wide in model No.’s 25, 30, and
35 FF, permitting installation with-
out cutting floor joists.
Additional features of both models
are: single rod control valve, made
possible by interlocking action of
pilot and main burner; heavy duty
cast iron high primary air slotted
burners; downdraft diverter; stream-
lined heating element constructed of
pressed steel, which is welded into
one piece so that gas fumes cannot
escape into a room. ;

What’s New (Con’)
Controls Redesigned on
G-E Automatic Washer
BRIDGEPORT, Conn. — A_ re-
designed control unit characterizes
the new 1948 General Electric All-
Automatic washer which is now in
production, according to Cc. 5.
Anderson, manager of the company’s
home laundry equipment division.
The temperature, time and cycle
controls which were formerly located
at each side of the control panel
have been consolidated into a single
set of controls on the right side of
the washer.
Changes in the new model’s water
connections permit it to be placed
within approximately 1 in. of the
backwall, Anderson said.
As in the previous model, all that
a housewife does to operate the
machine is to load it with up to nine
pounds of assorted dry clothes, pour
soapflakes or powder into the soap
dispenser, close the lid, select the de-
sired temperature for the wash water
and the desired length of washing
time and turn on the machine, he
explained. The washer does not have
to be touched again until the damp-
dry clothes are removed.
Washing is done by an activator
which soaks, flexes, and rubs clothes
gently from three to 20 minutes, de-
pending on the time selected by the
housewife. All waters are con-
tinuously circulated through filter
screens which skim off dirt and lint,
said Anderson.
In the seven-minute drying cycle,
clothes are spun at high speed in the
washer basket which, at its peak,
makes 1,140 revolutions per minute.
The new washer is provided with
an anti-siphonage system which
meets municipal plumbing code re--
quirements.
The All-Automatic washer carries a
recommended national retail price of
$349.75 which includes provisions of
an additional four-year service con-
tract on the sealed drive mechanism.

Carlco Stove-Top Oven Will Hold 25-Lb. Turkey
NEWARK, N. J.—Carlisle Mfg. Co.
here has recently introduced a two-
burner oven for use on top of the
stove. Said to be large enough for a
25-lb. turkey, the unit fits over two
burners.
Known as the Carlco
Giant Top-O’-Stove Oven,
it has all-steel construc-
tion, asbestos insulation,
and tight fitting inner-
seal door to keep heat in
and cut fuel costs.
Twin-vue glass panels are
said to allow for clear
view of the interior.
Door of the oven is
equipped with a cooking
thermometer, and is re-
inforced with gangplank
construction. Two remov-
able electrically welded
racks and a single deflec-
tor plate for even dis-
tribution of heat are
provided, according to the
company report.
Manufactured in two models, No.
1 is non-insulated and No. 2 is insu-
lated on two sides. Both models have
dimensions of 16 in. by 19% in. by
12¥% in.

Sherwin-Williams Issues
Kemclad Appliance Finish
CLEVELAND—Kemclad appliance
finishes, a new line of industrial
finishes especially developed for
household appliances, has been an-
nounced by the Sherwin-Williams Co.
Special systems of application
engineered by the company’s paint
chemists and based on the latest
technical research in protective coat-
ings are used with these finishes,
according to Sherwin-Williams. The
systems include formulas for high-
bake and low-bake application as well
as for air drying the finished prod-
ucts.
Claimed for the new finishes are
greater ease of application; excellent
opacity and build; range of baking
adaptable to numerous types of prod-
ucts; improved color stability and
retention; greater resistance to fruit
acids, beverages, foods, and alkali;
good adhesion; marproof durability;
and resistance to a condition of high
humidity as well as soap-water im-
mersion.
Sherwin-Williams further claims
that the exceptional heat resistance
of the finishes makes them particu-
larly suitable for ironers, roasters,
and stoves.

Refrigerated Anesthesia
While This Method Will Never Replace Gas, It Is
Useful In Shock Prevention and Skin Grafting
TORONTO—Although refrigeration
will probably never completely re-
| place gas as an anesthetic in surgery
| and medicine, it will be used increas-
out why gas will never be replaced
by refrigeration.
“It is of proven value, however, in
preventing shock, especially after
burns, and in skin grafting, in addi-
tion to amputations under some cir-
cumstances,” he added.
Refrigeration is new in medicine
and surgery, but in one sense it has
long been a home remedy, he said.
Most everyone is familiar with the
application of cold compresses or ice -
packs for minor ailments.
When used by the surgeon, refrig-
eration serves three functions:
1. It decreases the sensation of
pain by actually cooling nerves and
reducing the nerve impulses.
2. It decreases the loss of fluid
from blood vessels into damaged
areas.
3. Refrigeration reduces the me-
tabolism of the tissues.
“Proofs of these concepts have
been developed almost entirely within
the past 10 years,’”’ said Dr. Sellers,
who paid tribute to such pioneers in
this development as Drs. F. M. Allen
and Temple Fay.
In considering refrigeration anes-
thesia, two factors are important, he
xd
=|
continued.
One of these is the effect of cold
on the whole body, and the other is
the effect of cold on a local part of
' the body.
“A certain minimal body tempera-
ture is needed in order to support
life. Body temperatures as low as
74° F. have been observed, but it
must be noted that time is also an
important factor in survival after
exposure. Generally, it is desirable
that the body temperature remain
constant.
“Often, however, death from ex-
posure to cold is not due to the
lowering of body temperature but to
exhaustion of the circulatory system
in trying to keep the body warm.
“Hibernation has been successfully
induced in man by refrigeration for
such cases as cancer where it was
desirable to minimize pain.
“Local tissues have much greater
tolerance to cold than the whole
body,” Dr. Sellers continued. “But
the temperature tolerated varies
inversely with the time. In other
words, the lower the temperature the
shorter length of the time the tissue
can be exposed without damage.”
The general procedure in using re-
frigeration as an _ anesthetic for
surgery of limbs was outlined by Dr.
Sellers as follows:
First, a tourniquet is applied well
above the point of surgery. This
permits quicker cooling and makes
complete anesthesia possible.
After this, actual refrigeration to
lower the metabolism of the tissue
begins. The refrigeration can be «c.
complished by means of crushed ‘ce
or circulating refrigerant through a
sleeve wrapped around the limb.
Generally, 35° to 40° F. will p»o-
vide complete anesthesia, with <9°
being the best temperature to use
Two to eight hours cooling is e-
quired before surgery can start, ¢
length of time varying with the s ze
of the limb, and refrigeration is c n-
tinued after the operation for 24 to
48 hours more, he explained.
“The type of case chosen for refr z-
erated anesthesia is usually a pi or
operative risk where a_ gene a]
anesthetic is not desirable. It’s o ly
in selected cases where refrigera’ 2d
anesthesia is likely to be used.
“Use of refrigeration, however, is
most effective in preventing surgi:al
shock. Until a year ago mst
medical texts advised that the pati: nt
should be kept warm to prevint
shock. This, however, is not g¢od
advice. Most injuries are bet er
handled by cooling.
“Patients should also be kept cro.
They shouldn’t be allowed to shiv er,
however.”

made in this area last month, the
company declares.
The Tele-Juice has a capacity of
300 six-ounce cans which sell for
10 cents apiece. Operating on the
gravity principle, the vendor is
equipped with a straw dispenser and
a self-contained disposal unit for
empty cans.
The can opener is housed in a
special compartment and kept at a
constant 180° F. to prevent rust and
bacterial growth, the company states.
It is brought into play by means of
a foot pedal.

Wyoming Locker-Packer
Group Sees Need for Law
Or Plant Sanitation
CASPER, Wyo. — Sanitation in
jock: r plants and its relation to the
com iunity was a chief concern of
the Wyoming Frozen Food Locker
and “ackers Association at its recent
ann: al convention here.
Arter hearing speakers discuss
jous aspects of the subject, the
» ijation went on record as favor-
, state law covering the safety
sanitation requirements of locker
plan's.
L. O. Williams of the state health
depertment strongly advocated such
a lav in a talk to the group. He ad-
vise) the locker operators not to
accr 3t bad meat, even at the risk of
losit a customer, in order to avoid
trouble.
Charles W. Hanscum, state game
waren, urged locker operators to
sposor an educational program de-
signed to show big game hunters
how to care for their kills in the field
peiore they bring them to the locker
or cold storage plant. He said such
a program would help eliminate
trouble for both the hunter and the
plant operator.
Lou Holscher of the MHolscher
Packing Co. here spoke on rules for
construction and sanitation in pack-
ing houses.
O. H. Inghdorf of the state depart-
ment of agriculture outlined present
state laws which might be revised to
include the objectives of the locker-
men.
The association, formerly’ the
Wyoming Frozen Food Locker Asso-
ciation, voted at this convention to
admit meat packers to membership
and changed the organization’s name.

AIR CONDITIONING & REFRIGERATION NEWS,
~ Plant Not Erected Yet, But
200 Rent Lockers In Advance
HOLBROOK, Neb. — Although
Herald Frock has not started erec-
tion of his frozen food locker plant
here yet, more than 200 would-be
patrons have paid advance rent fol-
lowing his announcement such a
plant would be opened. He is now
negotiating for the purchase of lots
upon which to erect the plant.
1,600-Cu. Ft. 2-Section
Freezer-Cooler Installed
By Coastal Seafood Firm
CAMBRIDGE, Md.—A 1,600-cu. ft.
pre-fabricated freezer-cooler, manu-
factured by the Reco products divi-
sion of Refrigeration Engineering
Corp. of Philadelphia, was recently
installed here by White & Nelson,
packer of fish, oysters, crabmeat, and
tomatoes.
The -freezer-cooler measures 12 ft.
1 in. wide by 22 ft. 10 in. long by
7 ft. 6 in. high. It is divided into
two compartments, one held at 0° F.
for frozen food storage and the other
at 35 to 45° F. for storage of fresh
products.
The freezer section contains two
sets of plate stands, each having six
refrigerated plates measuring 22 by
72 in. They are refrigerated to
-20° for quick freezing and, at the
same time, serve to hold the room
temperature to 0° F.
The second compartment is refrig-
erated by a 1-hp. Reco-pak refrigera-
tion system.
The pre-fabricated sectional cooler
was shipped knocked down with
the shipment consisting of a number
of heavily insulated, light-weight,
aluminum-clad panels. The panels
were so constructed that they could
be assembled by the use of a small
socket wrench to draw up the assem-
bly bolts.
The heavy outfitting Super-Freezer
type door was shipped completely
pre-hung with hardware in place.
The packaged refrigeration system
was also shipped completely as-
sembled and designed to fit into one
of the side wall panels.
Inside, an insulated partition sepa-
rates the two compartments and is
equipped with a Super-Freezer door.

Similarities Between Copelametic Units
Aad Open Jobs Discussed for Repairmen
NETROIT — “The serviceman has
nothing new to learn when serving
a “opelametic user in that we have
sin: ply added a motor housing to the
corventional casting of a_ two-
cy!inder piston type compressor,
De:e Bodine, service manager for
Coneland Refrigeration Corp., told
a -roup of refrigeration servicemen
at a meeting sponsored by J. M.
Otere, parts wholesaler.
wodine pointed out to them the
servicing possibilities and features of
the new Copelametic units. He also
nected that Copeland is now produc-
ine a 5-hp. sealed unit and intends
to branch from there up to 7% hp.
and down to 3, 2, 144, and 1 hp.
“Our new Copelametic units in-
clude a few changes or improve-
ments over the first series,” he said.
“These include a _ one-piece valve
plate, heavier, more sturdy terminals,
a terminal box with knock-outs to
assist you in complying with any
local electrical code.
“A new terminal block has been
provided, where all the field wiring
may be accomplished without dis-
turbing the motor-compressor termi-
nals.
“The new Copelametic motor-
compressor assembly has mounting
feet of steel which are bolted to the
bottom of the motor-compressor
casting to eliminate breakage in
shipment.

is now possible and permissible to
replace the motor stator in the field
without any elaborate or intricate
jigs or fixtures. -
“The new Copelametic units are
also equipped with a General Electric
condenser fan motor which has a life
time oiling feature.
“Other improvements would be
new production methods whereby
each motor-compressor assembly and
complete unit, less electrical parts, is
immersed and tested for leaks at
250 lbs. dry nitrogen pressure.”
Bodine noted that open type units
could be adapted to various applica-
tions by merely changing the motor
pulley. But with a sealed unit the
motor speed is constant, he said.
“Since we cannot alter the speed,
we therefore have to alter the com-
pressor bore to obtain compressor
displacements consistent with the ap-
plication. For example, we supply a
14-hp. motor-compressor with 11%9-
in. bore for high back pressure, 14%-
in. bore for medium back pressure,
and 1%4-in. bore for low back pres-
sure application.
““Copelametic motor-compressors
are made in various types for all
phases of application or _ usage.
Motors may be _ split phase for
capillary tube or other low starting
torque usage.
“For refrigerating systems which
make use of a low side float, high
side float, automatic expansion valve,
or thermostatic expansion’ valve,
capacitor start-induction run motors
may be supplied.
“Where current costs may be a ©
factor, there is available capacitor
start-capacitor run models’ which
may be used with the larger types of
refrigerating systems.
“Motors are supplied 115 volt, 60
cycle, single phase for models in the
range of %& through % hp. For
models % through % hp., we supply
230 volt, 60 cycle single phase as
standard equipment.
“Motors of 115 volts can, however,
be obtained on these larger models
upon request. Dual voltage will be
available for the larger sizes ranging
from 1% through 7% hp.”
Bodine explained that, disregarding
the motor portion, the Copelametic
unit is a conventional two-cylinder
reciprocating compressor. It has the
service valves in the usual location,
the conventional cylinder head, valve
plate, and even the oil filler plugs in
the same relative location.
Outstanding feature of the unit, he
believes, is the oiling system. In the
Copelametic, an oil flinger or dipper
splashes oil against the rotor stator
cover.
Oil flows into the oil well and by
gravity then flows through the oil

and into the motor-compressor end
bearing. The connecting rod is
drilled to provide oil, under pressure,
to the piston pin.
Noting that the orbit of the con-
necting rods is above the oil level,
Bodine explained,
“This assures relatively dry re-
frigerant passing over to the high
side of the refrigerating system,
which is a distinct advantage in low
temperature applications.
“You all know that excess oil in
the refrigerant will affect the boiling
point. This not only creates an oil
film on the inner surface of the
evaporator or low side, but also, due
to the combined insulating effect of
the’ oil and the alteration of the
boiling point of the refrigerant, com-
pels the compressor to work harder
to accomplish the same desired re-
frigerant temperature.”
Stressing the importance of proper
voltage being applied to the motor-
compressor at all times, he said,
“With the open type units, we have
a steady flow of air across the motor
windings to rapidly dissipate heat.
Many of you know that with this
type motor you can impose an over-
load of 40 to 50% and the motor will
take it day after day—at least, with
motors that were produced prior to
the war.
“In a sealed unit, the motor is en-
closed and we depend upon metal to
metal contact and the fins cast
around the motor housing for dissi-
pation of heat. We therefore have to
maintain voltage within 15% of the
rated name plate voltage to assure
proper operation.
“When checking a Copelametic
motor-compressor assembly, where
low voltage may be suspected, the
voltage should be checked at the
motor terminals with the unit start-
ing or attempting to start.
“Copelametic units are designed
for use with ‘Freon-12’ refrigerant
only. The use of refrigerants other
than ‘Freon-12’ will ruin the motor-
compressor, motor windings, and
working parts and void our warranty.
“Since the rotor is composed of
aluminum, the addition of methyl
chloride to a Copelametic motor-
compressor assembly may cause
serious damage and in some instances
even results in a fire at such time
as the refrigerating system may be
opened to the air.
“In view of the continued’ ‘Freon-
12’ refrigerant shortage, we caution
each of you to be very careful that
you use ‘Freon-12’ refrigerant only
in this type refrigerating system.”

| ‘Working’ Exhibits Got Most Attention
At First Rema-Rses Educational Meeting
The News won't attempt to publish pictures of too many of the exhibits at the West
Coust educational conference, but it will present a few to give an idea of the nature
of the exhibit. Davison Chemical Corp., as shown above, combined a “working” display
with educational charts to get across the story of its dessicant.
* *
SAN FRANCISCO — Because the
Western Refrigeration and Air Condi-
tioning Educational Exhibit and Con-
ference was the first of its kind to
be staged, AIR CONDITIONING &
REFRIGERATION NEWS presents a sum-
mary of the type of exhibits that
were staged for whatever benefit it
might have for those planning future
conferences.
The exhibits, carefully screened be-
fore the opening of the conference
by K. B. Thorndike and H. F.
Spoehrer of Rema’s educational com-
mittee. conformed to the _ require-
ments that they be purely educa-
tional.
Some of the exhibitors worked out
some novel and rather ingenious ideas
for educational purposes, while others
showed cutaway models or glass
enclosed or replicas. Some indicated
that experience gained at the San
Francisco showing would help them
in preparing for future conferences.
The specially designed and ‘work-
ing” exhibits in which some equip-
ment was actually in operation, gen-
erally got the biggest play.
The following is a resume of what
some of the exhibits consisted of:
Airserco Mfg. Co. Display and
operation of hermetic unit analyzer,
and expansion valve and_ control
tester.
Alco Valve Co. Demonstration, by
means of a glass-enclosed refriger-
ated compartment, of the use of a
snap-action suction valve on a two-
temperature system, without use of
wiring or accessories. Demonstration
of operation of multi-outlet expansion
valve on plate-type evaporator.
Aminco’ Refrigeration Products.
Featuring colored cartoons’ with
“gremlins” or “pixies” tracing the
manner in which refrigerant in the
compressor crankcase picks up oil
and oil foam and carries it through
the system, how oil film in the evapo-
rator hinders heat transfer, and how
the oil separator serves to eliminate
this problem.
Ansul Chemical Co. Charts depict-
ing effect of dirt, moisture, and other
materials which impair the efficiency
of refrigerants.
Automatic Products Co. Cutaways
of various products, with spotlight on
areplica of the new model 65 water
Valve finished in lucite so that its
operation could be observed. This
Water valve is designed for special
small applications.
Bairco Products Co. Demonstration
of new methods of sectionalizing dis-
play fixtures, and demonstrating of
defrosting methods for low-tempera-
lure evaporators in such fixtures.
Brunner Mfg. Co. Disassembled
‘ompressor, showing component parts.
Bush Mfg. Co. Demonstration, by
lse of charts and actual fin sections,
of how different fin spacing and tube

SALES MANAGERS
Do you know the
SALES APTITUDE
~ Of The Men You Employ?
The men who developed and directed the Army
Classification System, have constructed and now
offer a SALES APTITUDE TEST, utilizing the
“forced choice’ technique of high validity.
The time, money, and worry saved through ad-
vance elimination of only one applicant who
“looks good’’, but whose lack of sales drive and
aptitude fore-dooms him to failure as a sales-
man will pay for this service many times over.
Another advantage—this test will spotlight those
individuals whose high sales aptitude warrant
your special attention and development.
Instructions for the administration of this test
are furnished; answer sheets are returned to us
for scoring, interpretation, and evaluation; you
are furnished an unbiased, confidential report on
each individual tested.
A nominal charge of $12.50 is made for each
evaluation and report. {tf you anticipate testing
up to 50 applicants and employees within a year.
an annual schedule of $590.00 is suggested,
which may be paid quarterly if desired. Com-
pare this cost with losses of time, money and
Company prestige caused by in-apt salesmen—and
send for this test today!

Calif. Has Stiff Exam - -
(Concluded from Page 1, Column 5)
almost imperative for a contractor
to get a license is that section of the
license law which states:
“No person engaged in the business
or acting in the capacity of a con-
tractor may bring or maintain any
action in any court of this State for
the collection of compensation for the
performance of any act or contract
for which a license is required by this
chapter without alleging and prov-
ing that he was a duly licensed con-
tractor at all times during the per-
formance of such act or contract.”
Those contractors who were li-
censed before May 1 need not qualify
a man under the new examination.
However, if the man in their employ
who was qualified should leave them,
they would find it necessary to
qualify another man _ under. the
amended law in order to hold the
license.
Industry circles believe that the
amended contractors license law will
result in confining contracting work
to thoroughly qualified companies.
‘Freon’ Cuts Seen Likely - -
(Concluded from Page 1, Column 4)
provided sufficient empty cylinders
are returned. With the shortage of |
shipping containers so acute, produc-
tion and distribution face drastic cuts
despite the added manufacturing ca-
pacity.
Return of empties has dropped far |
below the danger line, and for 10
months Kinetic has been shipping ©
cylinders far in excess of the empty
ones returned.
Insurance for Dealers - -
(Concluded from Page 1, Column 2)
proud to announce its development of
an exclusive plan of group life insur-
ance for dealers who discount their
time sales contracts with us.”
All dealers engaged in retail sales
of refrigeration merchandise and
other appliances who discount time
sales contracts with ReDisCo are
eligible under the new life insurance
plan, Brogan said. The plan is under-
written by Prudential Life Insurance
Co., based on the amount of time
sales volume.
Outstanding time sales volume
must be at least $5,000 to qualify
for the plan.
New Gas Refrigerator - -
(Concluded from Page 1, Column 4)
Gas Association testing laboratorie, |
in Cleveland found that the ga,
refrigerator would hold an avera::e of
-¥%2° F. and 33° F. in a 90° F. room |
for a 24-hour period.
“Although the unit has been . ngi-
neered to a point permitting its carly
manufacture and distribution, oy,
board of directors believe that such .
a program should be undertake: by
a new company to be formed spe.
cially for that purpose, since such an ~
enterprise requires a_ substentia]
capital investment for plant facilities —
and working capital,” Lambert } pint. ©
