January 21. 1S45 1 Salem Firm Busy Mailing Space Heaters for Alaska Bases: Postwar Mart Seen One Salem firm which has been kept busy with war work since before Pearl Harbor Li Caspar & Cutler, furnace manufacturers on Portland road. Most of their work has been in manufacturing space heaters for Alaska array and navy, bases, although they have built many small coal-burning furnaces for defense housing projects In the. northwest. -. ' .---i ' )' - ,-i'd' The space heater, of which over 3000 units have been made, is of large capacity, one million BTUi - and upward,' designed for. use In warehouses, dormitories or other open-area buildings. It embodies some unique features,' but publi cation of pictures of the heater - la' still under army ban. Answer Found , In the days when Jap planes were bombing American bases out m the Aleutians the tall smoke stacks served as pointers for warehouses and barracks on the ground. So the army engineers called for changes to do away with the stacks? Herman J. Cutler, who lince the first. of: the year Is the sole! owner of the business, stud ied the problem and found a so lution In an induced draft, which discharges' the gases at the side of the (building, with no stack re- -quired. .', ; " 'The space heater is made. of plate steel, rectangular In shape, wtih a narrowed top. Dimensions are 11 ft 6 In, by 7 ft A in by 3 ft 6 In. The lnne? shell, lined with firebrick,' is the firebox In which .fuel oil is burned through a conventional burner. A fan sucks the flame' and gas through down-vents at the end of the fire box into tubes, three on each side, leading to a chamber at the front of the furnace, whence the gases are exhausted through a " . pipe leading to the outside air, ; Fins Radiate Heat - On the outside of the inner shell sire steel fins, welded to the shell which serve to radiate the heat Three powerful fans at the bot tom of the structure draw In air from the floor, force If over the smoke tubes and through the air pace between the Inner end outer shell, where it' absorbs heat from the walls of the 'firebox and the radiating fins, and discharges K through three vents on top of the furnace. - ' '; ' ' r:r- K- Direction of the air flow is con trolled through rotation of the outlets. The air flows at high ve-j locity 'and the firing is under ther mostatic control, with the usual safety features for oil burner in stallation. ; i i r 5 Bondings In Plant . It wanine and a half years ago that Cutler an Nicholas Casper took over the did Berger' furnace shop III the fijibUy wood district Five and a half years ago they moved to their own pew plant north ton Porland d. Borne months ago a new building, weld ing shop, 80x150 ft,! was con structed, making five buildings in alt . The regular payroll - nun- bers 30. 3- A month ago Caspar retired from the business. Cutler is con tinuing and is confident her will find a large peacetime market for his space heaters for schools, gym nasiums, store buildings, factories, etc.; as well as(Eor other types of furnaces-and oil burners. ;"'.- : - '. i ?i " f -" I ' " Notarial Commissions Show Slight Drop ' A report of Secretary of State Robert S.
