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- 
ery again down in Washington. 


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 
Shooting starts. 

The hope, of course, is that these 
Plans won’t have to be used. 


Pipe S like they will, though, some

Succeeds 


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- 
velopment of its kind in the field, 
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.”

pany’s electric ranges from prac- 
tically every distributor’s territory 
still exceeds the supply. Finished 
units move direct from the assembly 
line into waiting box cars and trucks 
without the need of storage, Marshall

Committee Representing 


Mills Creditors Sets 
New Meeting June 28 


CHICAGO—An unofficial commit- 
tee representing creditors of Mills 
Industries, Inc., was made official at 
the first meeting of creditors held 
April 19, but there was no hearing 
on the plan of arrangement, the com- 
mittee reported. 

Another meeting to consider the 
plan was set for June 28, starting at 
10 a.m. In the meantime, the com- 
mittee said, “steps can be taken to 
consider the contemplated plan in the 
interest of creditors.” 

Members of the creditors’ commit- 
tee elected at the meeting are F. E. 
Gibson, Graybar Electric Co., chair- 
man; Nolan Browning, Bank of 
America; F. J. Sherwin, Chicago 
Hardware Foundry Co.; C. L. Shep- 
hard, Gale Mfg. Co.; R. T. Anderson, 
Operadio Mfg. Co.; L. W. McBride, 
Wagner Electric Co.; and Earl Diehl, 
Westinghouse Electric Corp. James 
S. Cox, of the Chicago Association of 
Credit Men’s Service Corp., is secre- 
tary. 

In a letter to creditors, the com- 
mittee announced that A. E. Tre- 
ganza has been elected executive vice 
president and is directly in charge of 
plant operations. The letter con- 
tinued: 

“We have been furnished state- 
ments as of March 31, 1948, which

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.

KITCHEN VENTILATOR A SUCCESS 


@ “To make this kitchen ventilator a suc-

air delivery has to be raised, the cost of 


the unit lowered.” 


So Torrington engineers made tests 
and studied the unit. With their recom- 
mendations for proper combination of 
fan blade and motor, along with minor 
design changes, the manufacturer’s prob- 
lem was eliminated. Air delivery rose

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

The first book, “Your Way to 
Success in Selling,” is a volume 
“about selling ... and how to sell 
successfully. It has been prepared 
not only for the newcomer to sales, 
but also to enable the experienced 
salesman to review and revive those 
sales essentials he may have had 
little opportunity to use during recent 
years of product shortage.” 

The four full-color sound slide 
films supporting this text are ‘“Here’s

factors in selling; and “You Can

techniques are demonstrated. 

The second book, “Your Way to 
Success in Selling Kelvinator Prod-

specifically with the company’s prod-

background knowledge on the insti- 
tution behind the product, explains 
basic principles of refrigeration and 
the general construction details of 
Kelvinator products, and thoroughly

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.”

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-

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.”

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. 

Hoffman sold him this 
goods.” 


Incidentally, Harriman’s salary is © 
$25,000 a year as compared with © 
Hoffman’s $20,000. Harriman need: 
that salary like he needs a hole it)” 
his head. Hoffman admits wryly that 
he won’t be able to live on his salary.) 
(and keep up his fixed obligations 
and that his wife thinks he’s crazy 
Nevertheless, Hoffman insists that 
Harriman’s assignment is the mort) 
important, and that it deserves ‘) 
higher salary. 

Next, Hoffman sold Dennis Fitz 
gerald, who probably knows mole 
about food supply and distributio 
problems than any other man in tht)” 
world, on leaving the comfortable 
lifetime security of his position » 
the Department of Agriculture ‘o a 
cept the tenuous, insecure title “ 
ECA Food Director. Hoffman als 
grabbed brilliant Richard M. Basset 
Jr., for his executive assistant. 

And he’s still selling high]: -pai

AIR CONDITIONING & REFRIGERATION NEWS, MAY 10, 1948 


Hecting Control Sales 
At Penn Electric Will 
Be ‘leaded by R.V. Clark 


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.

KENDALLVILLE, Ind. — McCray 
Refrigerator Co. here has recently 
appointed Henry Weis, Jr., Inc. of St. 
Louis as distributor for its products 
in the St. Louis territory.

‘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- 
tion. 

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. 


Eastern Commercial Dealer 


Occupies New Warehouse July I 


LYNBROOK, N. Y.—A new ware- 
house now being erected at 620 
Merrick Rd. here for E. J. Schmidt 
& Co., Inc., commercial refrigeration 
dealer, is scheduled for occupancy 
about July 1, Fred Durr, president. 
announced. The old building on 
Atlantic Ave. was totally destroyed 
by fire in March, 1944. 

The corporation’s activities will be 
confined to the sale of commercial 
refrigeration and allied hotel and 
restaurant equipment, Durr said. 


Weber Yearly Profit 
Shows $490,782 Drop 


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.” 


Bid Let for Canadian Plant 


VANCOUVER, B. C.—Fraser Cold 
Storage, Ltd. will build a new cold 
storage plant, office, and store at 
3350-52 Fraser Ave. here. Contract 
has been placed with Greenall Bros. 
Harold Cullerne, Pacific Coast Fire 
Building, is architect. The building 
will be two stories in height and 
52.6 by 89.3 ft.

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 
revered by the populace for heroic exploits and military successes were 
at once respected and hated by many of the men under their command. 
Gen. Patton was a notable example of this. The worshippers and the 
ears : "penne | haters undoubtedly represent two extremes. Somewhere midway be 
_ tween them is a real foundation for hero worship.

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 . . 
it, then surely in its early years of development, 
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 
Air problems. . 
humidity control. 

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 
with usAIRco to go all out to serve a customer. If you’d 
like to experience that type of service, just send us 
an inquiry.

Humidor Room Recalls ‘Cedar Barrel’ Days 


At Meyer’s Drug Co.’s new 
Ft. Wayne, Ind. store an 
air conditioned tobacco 
display cabinet is boosting 
cigar sales. Downtown 
businessmen are encour- 
aged to buy cigars by the 
box and store them under 
their name in the Humi-

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. 


Blanton & Mann Gets Contract 
For Belk Department Store 


SPARTANBURG, S. C. — Blanton

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. 
tiondaire, Inc., local air conditioning 
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. 


VA Hospital Contract Goes 
To New York State Firms 


ALBANY, N. Y.—-Almirall & Co. 
of New York City and E. W. Tomp- 
kins Co. of Buffalo have been jointly 
awarded a $1,682,338 contract for 
heating, ventilating, air conditioning, 
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.

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-

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.

You don’t have to be a crystal-gazer to find out 
where you stand in dry bottle cooler competition. 
But you ought to evaluate your competitive posi- 
tion—present and future. 

When the supply was short, all bottle coolers 
sold well. But is that true today? And will it 
apply to a future where supply is plentiful and 
competition is sharp? 

If the line is Master-Bilt — yes. For Master- 
Bilt was designed for choosy buyers. It combines 
features and advantages that give you power to 
sell against any competition—at a profit. 

What are some of its strong points? Efficient 
cooling is one.:Each and every bottle has direct 
contact with the coils, is evenly and individually 
chilled. Gravity cooling is employed—a system 
which requires no fan. 


stimulating feature. The handy sliding lids and 
unique storage arrangement permit easier brand 
separation and speedier dispensing. Master-Bilt 
cabinets hold 4 to 8 more cases of beer than other 
coolers with comparable overall dimensions. 

Still another great talking point is Master- 
Bilt’s masterful construction: its sturdy cabinet 

. stainless steel doors and track . . . sagless 
bottom ... thick walls of Fiberglas insulation. 
You find built-to-last quality in every visible 
and hidden detail. 

These are the things that make Master-Bilt a 
name to watch in refrigeration. And they’ll make

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.” 


New Jordon. Distributor Holds 
Open House for 100 Dealers 


LONG ISLAND CITY—tThe Kel-

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. 

“The new motor-compressor as- 
sembly has a removable stator. It

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

tube into the hollow eccentric shaft. 
In the center bearings, centrifugal 
force causes oil to flow through the 
crank shaft, through the drilled open- 
ings to the eccentric rod bearings 
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

ated from a commercial size Meter- 
Miser condensing unit. This Viso- 
Trainer is now available for meetings 
of groups of independent servicemen. 


General Controls Co. Featured was 
a glass evaporator showing the opera- 
tion of a thermostatic expansion valve. 
Highlight of the educational part of 
the exhibit was a series of diagrams

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. ©
