public relations
department, from Boston, Mass.,
will be guest speaker during
next Wednesday luncheon meet-
. lng of the Salem Rotary club.

ADVICE TO BUSINESSMEN
Companies Are Thinking Up
New Products to Keep Going

Steele Advanced to
Deputy State Sealer
Walter B. Steele of Salem has
been promoted to deputy state
sealer of weights and measures
for the state department of
agriculture, Chief O. K. Beals
of the division of foods and
dairies announced today.
Steele has been in charge of
the refrigerated locker law en
forcement for the department
for the past year, and before that
was a fieldman for the division
Steele will succeed C. R. Jes
ter, who has resigned to accept
a position with a private busi
ness concern in Grants Pass.
ing their present products aren't
selling so well, are putting their
expensive engineering talent to
work thinking up new ones.
You can always coax money out
of an Americans pocket for
something new.
Don't let your company's spe
cialty, or Its name, deter you.
Some strange bedfellows are
found these days in product
lists. Like the company that
makes submarines and bowling
pins, or the one that makes
locomotives and washing machines.
The president of Electric Boat
Co. says he's egging his engineers
on to come up with some nifty
new products. The company is
pretty diversified already, it
still makes submarines and air
planes. It also makes truck
bodies and bowling pins, dyna
mos and bottle fillers, offset
printing presses and structural
steel shapes for bridges.
The chairman of Curtis-
Wright says his engineering
talent is scratching its collective
head thinking up new products
for a corporation that already
has quite a list. You probably
know it for its airplane engines
and propellors. Its subsidiaries
also turn out textile spindles,
air compressors, film projectors
and cameras
Others in the aircraft industry
branched out fast and far in the
lean years after the war. One
for a time made coffins. An
other made kitchen sinks.
Douglas makes not only planes
but also auto fenders, guards
and deck panels. Bendlx avia
tion turns out auto and avia
tion parts, marine equipment,
radio and television sets, radar
and airport weather instruments.
The products list of the Sco-
ville Manufacturing Co. has 13,-
000 items. A few are: Street
car fare tokens, pins, compacts,
tire valves, plumbers supplies
motors, bottle openers, food
mixers and thimbles.
The Sperry Corp. may be
known to you as the maker of
hydraulic and electric equipment
and gyroscopic devices. You
can also buy from It magnet
wire, photo-electric cells, farm
machinery, garden tractors and
ensilage cutters.
Pullman, Inc., Is noted for
its railway freight and passenger!
cars. It also makes plastics,
stainless steel, street cars, and
fluid catalytic cracking units
for oil refineries.
General Motor isn't confined
to cars and trucks. There are
refrigerators, air-conditioners,
sinks and washers, diesel loco
motives, aircraft engines and

General Electric ranges all
the way from lamps to locomo
tives, eggbeaters to turbines.
Its scientists can also make snow
or rain.
Westinghouse Electric adds to
all the products its name implies
an atomic energy plant.
Swift and Co. packs meat pro
ducts, and also plant food, soap,
soybean oil and ice cream.
Singer Manufacturing Co
makes sewing machines, but al
so vacuum cleaners, fans, and a
surgical stitcher for physicians.
Jersev Standard Oil makes
gasoline, also industrial alcohol,
natural gas, fuel oil, material
for synthetic rubber, anti-fly
spray and mineral oil for hu-
The granddaddy in this move
ment may have been Aviation
Corp. It got so many products
it changed its name to Avco
Manufacturing Co. It still
makes aircraft engines. Its sub
sidiarics also turn out radios
and television sets, auto and
farm equipment, refrigerators,
kitchen sinks and cabinets,
washing machines, gas and elec
tric raifges. It also runs radio
stations.
So you can't always tell from
a company's name just what it's
up to.
Bones of Chinese
On Way to China
Portland, July 1 (IP) The
bones of 559 Chinese, many of
them dead for 50 years, were
started back today for burial in
the land of their ancestors.
The Portland Consolidated
Benevolent association consign
ed 93 cases, each holding six
metal containers, to Tung Wha
hospital in Hong Kong. From
there they will be forwarded to
various cities and villages in
Kwangtung province.
A spokesman for the benevo
lent association said only those
with no close kinsmen in this
country are returned.
Fire Department Adds 25 J
Men; Hours Cut, Area Grows
The new schedule of working hours, and added personnel of the
Salem fire department became effective Friday.
Additional personnel became necessary wnen the people last
November approved a measure reducing on-duty hours from 84
to 63 a week. The annexation of several outlying areas, particu
larly KinKwood water district?
in Polk county, also influenced
the increase of the department
payroll.
Ten of 25 new men added by
Chief W. P. Roble are those who
passed the civil service examin
ation last week, and others are
those previously on the eligible
list.
The change makes necessary
three instead of two battalions
and also three battalion chiefs.
The new one will be Captain
E. L. Smith, who for a long time
has been department drill mas
ter for the department. The
other two, who have served for
two years, are Robert Mills and
Walter Eberhard.
Chief Roble said that Smith
would continue as drill officer
through an intensive training
period for the recruits which has
already started and will con
tinue five days, regardless of the
holidays.
Other promotions announced
are Captain A. M. Bloom from
first aid captain to fire captain,
with assignment to headquar
ters; and Firemen Peter McCaf
fery and W. D. Edwards to fire
captains.
Until another civil service ex
amination E. C. Hart will be act
ing first aid captain, and a drill
master to succeed Smith will be
named later.
The 25 firemen, including
those already announced as suc
cessful in the recent examina tions,
are:
Robert Norton, Earl Noble,
Ronald Ruch, Neal Nesbit, Ches
ter Howe, Myron Nelson, Don
Hendrickson, Warren Paynter,
Frank Carruth, Clinton Blak-
ley. Dean Hagedorn, Clarence

Oswego Lumber
Yard Destroyed

gest fire in this suburban Port
land town's history destroyed a
lumber yard, an auto accessories
shop, and part of the City hall

The damage was not estimated

eluded several thousand board
feet of lumber, several hundred

Firemen from Oswego, Ore
gon City, Lake Grove, Glad
stone, West Linn and Tualatin
kept the flames from spreading
to the main part of the City
hall. Barney's Auto Accessory
store, stocked chiefly with tires,
burned.
An ambulance was sent to the
scene after the Tualatin fire
truck overturned three blocks
from the fire. But Fire Chief

of the Tualatin volunteers since
1937, declined first tid and rush
ed on to the fire.

Bronchial-Asthma Victims
Benefitted by Benadryl
' New York. July 2 u.R Successful treatment of bronchial
asthma through use of a hay fever drug in spray form was re
ported today.
The report came from Dr. Louis L. Friedman, of Birmingham,
Ala., who had used the technique on about 100 patients.
The drug he used is techni-
cally known as diphenhydramine
Hydrochloride and Is sold un
der the commercial name of
benadryl, long used by sufferers
of hay fever and others suffering
allergic diseases. It is usually
given by injection.
Dr. Friedman, in reporting his
clinical trials In the journal of
the Southern Medical associa
tion, told of administering the
drug in spray form on 12 pa
tients. It was learned that in all
it has been tried on some 90
others.
Three of the patients, he re
ported, had suffered from as
thma for 19, 22 and 25 years re
spectively. Of the 12, three never
had been treated with the so
called anti-histaminic drugs,
such as benadryl in tablet form
or by needle injection.
Dr. Friedman said that in ad
dition to the drug, he also used
penicillin and other germ kill
ers in the spray when there was
a significant infection.
"All of the 12 patients studied
were benefitted by this therapy,"
he said.
He further said that the
treatment "has either entirely
prevented acute attacks or in
creased the interval between at
tacks and decreased their severity.
"The treatment," Dr. Fried
man said, "is unusually free of
undesirable side reactions."
