A Nkhol's Worth of . . .
Comment On This and That
By HARMAN W. NICHOLS
United Prest Fa tar Writer
Washington (U.R) The
dollar watch us old coots once
sported in the bib-pocket of our
overalls still is
on the market.
Only now it
costs $2.95 for
the white face,
and $3.95 for a
black face.
The Inger
soll every old
timer rememb
ers has been
revived, and
Karman fticiiols you can not
blame the up in price entirely
on rising costs. The 1955 model,
on display at the American
Watch and Clock markets ex
hibit here in the Department of
Commerce building, has some
thing added. A sweep second
hand.
The modern version, accord
ing to the United States Time
Corp. of Waterbury, Conn., has
100 separate parts made in near
ly 2000 operations. Before the
watch goes into your watch
.pocket, some 3000 inspections
are made.
Salesman Ingersoll
As a matter of fact, Robert
Ingersoll never made a watch in
his life. He had the idea and
the Waterbury folks made his
watches and put his name on
them. Robert did the selling.
In the old days a worker got
60 cents an hour for making a
watch. The old time piece was
billed as the "watch that made
the dollar famous." We don't
have a three or four-dollar bill
today, so the slogan has been
discarded.
One of the attractions of the
exhibit by the watch and clock
makers is Princess Little Thun
der of the Chippewa Indian
tribe of North Dakota. The prin
cess, one of eight children, lives
on a reservation near Rolla, N.
D. When she arrived here ,she
was leaving her home locality
for the first time. The 5-foot,
dark-eyed , Indian beauty is one
of the precision workers at a
jewel bearing plant in Rolla.
"It is easy work," Princess
Little Thunder said. "After you
work with the jewels for a
while, you don't have to use a
microscope or magnifying glass.
Doing what you have to do
comes instinctively. And if you
watch what you are doing, you
don't make many mistakes."
At the Turtle Mountain Ord
nance plant, operated by the
Bulova people, who do it for
Uncle Sam for $1 a year, the
princess works with a jewel
bearing made of synthetic ruby.
It has a diameter of 0.0394, near
three ten-thousandths of an
inch.
The hole she must , make with
a high carbon, tungsten steel
drill has a diameter of 0.000177
inches.
Bills in Legislature
Salem (U.R) Ren. Waltpr
Pearson (D-Portland) has sug
gested that the legislative "take
the bull by the horns" and set
up a special election to allow the
people to decide on either a sales
tax or a universal income tax.
Pearson, a member of the
House Tax Committee, said the
election would provide alterna
tives if the present "stop gap"
proposals are referred.
Rep. Loran Stewart (R-Cottage
Grove), committee chairman,
admitted the income tax in
crease passed by the House was
a "stop gap" proposal,, and that
additional sources of income
would have to be found in two
years.
The Oregon Tax Commission
' estimated the needs for the 1957
59 biennium would be $230,
000,000, or a $37,800,000 in
crease over the 1955-57 needs for
which revenues would have to
be found.
; The commission said a three
per cent sales tax, from which
food was exempt, would raise
$90,000,000.
No action was taken by the
committee.
Salem (U.R) A substitute
bill relating to taxes against
water transportation companies
has been introduced by the
House Taxation Committee to
exempt property of firms en
gaged in high seas traffic.
The substitute bill was intro
duced to meet the objections of
the Dort of The Dalles and othpr
Columbia river shipping points
who feared the state s present
tax structure for barge and boat
lines would drive such business
out of the state.
Salem (U.R) The House and
Senate joint Ways and Means
Committee has turned down a
proposed $130,000 budget for
the Oregon Development Com
mission. -
The vote was 7-7. meaning the
budget failed to win the neces
sary majority.
Defeat of the Hevplnnmpnt
commission's budget spelled an
end to the two-year-old aeencv.'
which was formed to attract new
industry to Oregon.
