Automation Is Spreading Fast
From Factory to Office, Home
By SAM DAWSON
NEW YORK I Automation is
spreading fast from the factory to
the office and the kitchen.
Mechanization we have long had
with us. This is mechanical action
served by a power source but
guided or controlled by human
brains and hands. Example: the
electric washer that has to be
turned on and off.
To mechanization automation
adds guidance and control sup
plied by additional- inanimate
uni'.s built into the machine it
self. Example; the automatic
cic'.hes washer.
Automation also often includes
the ability to check automatically
against mistakes and to apply
past experience to future action!
Example: the computers used in
many offices.
Automated food preparation
equipment run by punched cards
may be built into tomorrow's
kitchens. A punched card recipe
would command the movements
now performed by the cook. Scien
tists see the day when punched
cards will- tell the homemaker
what food to order based on the
machine's "memory" of what the
family likes, how much is thrown
away and what quantity of any
type of food is consumed over a
given period.
From the factory, perhaps,
could come an automatic kitchen
mixer like the Fairbanks-Morse
scales that automatically dole out
and measure industrial materials
to be mixed.
Homes in the arid Southwest
already are being equipped with
mechanisms that cool the house
when the weather outside is hot
and reverse themselves to warm
the house when the night chill sets
in. And Carrier Corp. has just
opened a weather engineering
laboratory at Syracuse, N.Y., to
seek still higher efficiency in
home air conditioning.
Machines are taking over more
office work all the time whether
it's the huge mathematical chores
like those performed by Reming
ton Rand's Univac, or central
dictating machines such as those
installed by the Gray Manufactur
ing Co. in the Stanvac building in
Westchester County, N.Y.
In any one of 290 offices a Stan
vac executive can pick up his
phone and dial central dictating.
Automatically his dictated words
are channeled to any of 24 dictat
ing machines in the central bat
tery. After the typist has tran
scribed the . discs, automation
takes over again, carrying by
pneumatic tubes the finished copy
back to the man who dictated it.
Bilked Bride
To Leave U, S.
EL CAJON. Calif. W-A mail
order bride's demand that she be
returned to Spain at her husband's
expense was granted yesterday.
Mrs. Adclaida de Leon y Ender
lea Arocha, 32, said in Municipal
Court yesterday that Salvadore
Arocha courted her by mail and
that they were married by proxy
at a church ceremony in Seville
four months ago.
She said when she arrived here
she found that Arocha. a plant
nursery employe, was 64 instead
of 40, that he was not a man of
means and that he did not own
a home.
Arocha. in court on a charge of
' assault brought by his wife, was
ordered to pay her return passage.
Mrs. Arocha said her parents
owned a business in Seville, were;
moderately wealthy, and that
many friends had attended the
proxy marriage. J

Sliells Built
For Satellite
DETROIT I - The shells of
two gold-plated earth satellites
the first of their kind will be
turned over to the Navy by a De
troit firm Friday for launching
into outer space.
Both are the type that will be
fired into space some time next
year as part of United States ex
perimentation during the Interna
tional Geophysical Year.
The 20-inch satellite shells are
the first to be built by Brooks &
Perkins, Inc., in finished form. E.
Howard Perkins, board chairman,
said two others were turned over
to the Navy earlier, but neither
had the 24-carat gold plate needed
for "reflectivity."
Perkins said it is uncertain
"whether either, or both, or neith
er" will be used for the first
flight, which will take place at
Patrick Air Force Base, Cocoa.
Fla.
The sphere weighs about 21
pounds. It is expected to circle the
earth at a speed of about 18,000
miles a,i hour ar.d rc:v..Jn in
flight for from two weeks to a
.'ear, depending on how soon fric
tion brings it back to earth.
