16 MAIL TRIBUNE, Medforrf, Or. Tuesday, Aug. 11, 1959 Family Council Silent Explosion Will Blast Dirt From Dishes in Future Gloria S. What advantage is there to his faith? Alan S. We must talk to a clergyman. Gloria S. My husband and I are of different faiths and are concerned about the fu ture of the baby we are ex pecting. - Our original idea was to bring up the child with a knowledge of both our reli gions and let him or her make a choice at the age of 21. On thinking it over, however, we feel that perhaps the child should be initiated into one faith or another through a ritual shortly after birth. He can change later if he wants to. My husband claims to be open-minded on the subject, but I know he would rather have the baby be of his faith. This is perfectly fine with me, but I think the child's haDDiness comes first and we must consider what advant ages there might be to him as a member of my husband's faith. I thought it was proper to discuss this with my in laws, but to my surprise they showed no interest and even seemed hostile about it. r; Alan S. I'm afraid my parents have let me down on this thing, but in a way l don't blame them and I can their noint of view. They aren't seriously religious peo ple and they brought me up with a mere smattering of knowledge of my faith. Yet they were opposed to my marrying outside of my faith. Once I did it, however, they said they wanted to Keep hands off the subject. ; My idea is that we should go to a clergyman and talk things over. I would be per fectly satisfied, if, after dis xiissing it : with the clergy man, Gloria feels she doesn't want to go through with this. But she says she doesn't want to talk to anyone who will put pressure on her. I am will ing to go to a clergyman of her faith, but she claims I wouldn't really be open-minded. It doesn't really matter, yet I feel we should straighten this out before the baby is born. ' The Council: We don't pre sume to hold the magic to dissolve such a tangle. But perhaps we can shed a little light on some of the incon sistencies and dishonesties ex pressed on both side. Gloria maintains she does n't want to be pressured, yet she shows some disappoint ment that her in-laws have put no pressure upon her. She chooses to interpret this as a" hostile act. Her attitude sug gests that she is merely flirt ing with the idea of bringing up a the child in her husband's faith. In any case, she shows no understanding of the mean ine of faith if she thinks she Can go shopping for an "ad vantageous" religion for her child. Faith is belief, and while it is good for a child to crow ud with belief, with a soecific form of worship, with a clear-cut identity in this complex world, it is ridicul ous to shop for a helief that will gurantee him future hap- Tiiness. Alan shows just as much confusion in some other di rections. He apparently has a strong desire to bring up his child in his faith and would like his parents or a clergy man to sneak for him. Yet he insists that he has no faith in his faith. 1 There is much to be gained from discussion with clergy men of both faiths, but Gloria and Alan should be aware that they cannot have this problem solved for them by any out sider. They should try to rid themselves of their own con fusions and conflicts and avoid as far as possible foist ing the dilemma on their un born child. (Copyright 1959. . General Features Corp.) NIXON ASKED TO GAMES Chicago - (UPD - Mayor Rich ard J. Dalev Monday asked Vice President Richard M. Nixon to take President Eis enhower's place in - opening the Pan American Games here Aug. 27. The President had to cancel plans to appear because of his European trip - By ELMER C. WALZER UPI Financial Editor New York -(UPD- Ladies, it won't be long now before you will be able literally to blast frvm tne dirt Off youn dishes with millions of the silent est explosions you never heard. B 1 a s t i ng w o n't hurt them a bit. And they will EUner Waizer sparkle like gems. You c?n wash your gems, too, with the same ma chine. Just how this modern si lent noisemaker (noise your ear can't hear) is used in in dustry for myriad purposes. It's a product of the Narda Ultrasonic Corp. Present uses include removal of dirt, grime and grease from jet engine nozzles and oil filters which until now had tot be discard ed and replaced with new ones. The ultrasonic cleaning makes them like new, accord ing to Paul M. Platzman, ex ecutive vice president of the Narda firm. On Lucky Housewife There is only one lady in all the world who has one of those machines. She is Mrs. Mable Welden, Boca Raton, ria. She won it on a quiz show. Hers is an ultrasonic sil verware and jewelry cleaner which up to now had been made only for industrial cleaning. Narda expects to market sil verware cleaners as wen as an ultrasonic household dish washer by the year-end, ac cording to Robert C. Wright, Narda service engineer. Big ultrasonic d i s h w a s hers al ready are in use in many ho tels and restaurants and Nar da has built a small proto type for the home but is not yet ready to mass produce it. Platzman explains how the principle which save the jet nozzles is working in aJhous and and one ways on other applications. "It's being used," he says, in the manufacture- of deli cate contact lenses and in cleaning fine jewelry, in in suring accurate performance of rockets and missiles and in guarding against inaccurate electric power bills by clean ing meters so that they func tion properly." Sound Waves Do Work As Platzman explains it, the ultrasonic cleaner oper ates with what he calls a DAILY'S Body & Painl Southern Oregon's Oldest and Finest 29 S. BARTLETT Phono SP 2-2395 transducer, a kind of elec tronic tuning fork which con verts high frequency elec trical energy into high fre quency sound waves and in troduces them into a tank full of cleaning solution. The sound waves alternate ly compress and decompress the solution, which may be nothing more than detergent and water, 40,000 times a sec ond, creating a swirling sea of sub - microscopic vacuum bubbles. As millions of these bub bles form swiftly and collapse violently, the action blasts loose dirt, grease and other contaminants. The solution may seem to come to a light boil, but it does not heat up. Hence the expression, cold boiling. Platzman notes that this ul trasonic cleaning is getting to be big business. Military and commercial sales of the Narda company last year reached $25 million. Platzman pre dicts they will double this year, and hit $150 million an nually within five years. Pric es of the machines range from $175 for a small laboratory model to $1,325 and up or king-sized versions with the best sellers a $350 jewelry model and a $695 unit used by hospitals. Oregon Cavalcade Wagons Float Down Columbia River Portland (UPD The seven wagons of the Oregon Centen nial cavalcade, like the cov ered wagons of 116 years ago, made the trip from The Dalles to Portland by barge Monday but under altered circum stances. In the pioneer days, the wagons were loaded aboard home-made rafts, and the trip to what is now the Portland Vancouver area took three days or so. On Monday the seven conestogas, all loaded on one, barge, made the trip to Portland in 10 hours. The plan had been to stay overnight at Willamette park, but there was no place to tie up securely there. So the wag ons were tied up at the Zidell dock. Hillsboro Next The wagons got under way today for Hillsboro, the next overland leg of the long trek from Independence, Mo., to Independence, Ore. A celebra tion, complete with a big feed, is planned for the 59ers at Hillsboro before the wagons continued on toward Inde pendence. On the trip down the Co lumbia, the wagoneers were cheered by crowds that gath ered by the riverside along the way. At Collins creek near Wind Mountain, hundreds turned out with a huge ban ner emblazoned in large green letters - "Wercome Oregon Cavalcade." Messages of wel come were even flashed from the mountain tops by mirrors. The 59ers paused for lunch Monday at Washougal as guests of the Camas and Washougal Chambers of Com merce. Hundreds greeted them at the docks. The Wash ougal stop, only place where the cavalcade touched Wash ington shores, was also in ac cordance with history. Wagonmaster Tex Serpa ob served that most of the wagon trains that floated down the river landed at Fort Rains or Fort Vancouver for provi sions. Amity Thursday The 59ers plan to make it to Dundee Wednesday; Thurs day to Amity, and Friday to a point about a mile out of Independence. Saturday the wagons will roll triumphantly into Inde pendence, end of the trek of 2,020 miles from Missouri. That will be the 100th day of travel, the 120th day of elaps ed time since the wagons rolled out of Independence, Mo., April 19. But that won't be the end. After their triumphal week end, the wagons will roll again - by truck - to Portland Monday morning. Horses and mules will then be hitched to their rigs for the final parade to the Oregon Centennial Ex position grounds at the north edge of Portland. Then they will unhitch and disburse. But the wagons will remain on exhibition at the Exposition. Morse Says No Family Members On His Payroll Portland -(UPD Sen. Wayne Morse (D-Ore.), in a newslet ter to his constitutents, says no members of his family are on his office payroll and that his staff payroll will be made public in November. Morse said the Senate dis bursing officer will make pub lic the information. The Sen ate has passed a resolution di recting the disbursing officer to make public quarterly the payrolls of all senators with the first report covering the quarter starting July 1 of this year. Morse said that "if each sen ator proceeds willy-nilly to re lease his own payroll the offi cial procedure for publication will be defeated." He added that if a senator should make an innocent mistake it would be subject t o misinterpreta tion when compared to the official report. He pointed out that he in troduced a resolution in 1952 to make public salaries of aides of senators and reintro duced it this session. The U.S. produces 14 mil lion pounds of lamp black annually, used chiefly in paint and ink pigments.

Another valuable service comes from telephone research k ,, ,w,, ''W' ' - ' ' F . nmm Now - office machines "talk" to each other over telephone lines A. new kind of telephone service is now helping businesses serve you faster and more efficiently. Called Dataphone service, it lets ordinary office machines "talk" to each other at speeds up to 800 words a minute, much faster than you can talk. ' Banks, for instance, can use Dataphone service to send deposit figures to other banks. This new service takes fig ures from office machines and changes them into signals sends them over phone lines then changes them back into figures. In the same way, other businesses can send letters, inventories information of all kinds faster than ever before. Dataphone service is another result of telephone re search. It's one more example of the way we work to make ' telephone service even more valuable both to businesses and to you. The men and women of Working together to serve you better...
