machined purts to the machine
shop.
Harvey Hayden, at 35 u 21
year veteran of the pattern trade
und head of the pattern making
department, got the flrnt one.
With precision and care com
pounded through two decades,
lie built each part to be cost
but built 'cm of sugar pint! cor
rect to sixty-fourth of Bn Inch.
lluydi'ii built 'em, Inside and
out, with each, measurement col
culatcd In advance, to tho exact
shape and size of what later was
'to be the inlshrd casting. His
work included drums, gears, mo
tor housings, bracing any sta
tionary part not required to bear
tremendous weights qr moving
parts not destined to run at high
speed.
Haydon's producbN-one a re
plica of what later was to be a
casting's exterior, another of the
Interior painted black, looked
Ilk the finished piece when the
foundry department took It over.
But the foundry headed by
John Gurtlc, for eight years
Klamath Machine's foundry fore
man had a Job to do.
Thcir's was tho task of build
ing a mold of material suitable
to encompass v molten metal
around the entire wooden pat
tern, then pour flowing Iron and
como up with the casting bub-ble-freo
and clear of slag.
With his staff, Gurtlo built a
"drag," a box of heavy lumber
without bottom or top. In It,
around Haydon's pattern, foun
drymcn pecked molding sand, a
sharp sand of minute, harsh Jag
ged particles which hang togeth
er where tiny spheres of beach
sand roll together like oil.
The same was done with a
"cope," or the top half of the
mold.
Meantime, other assistants
who previously had packed
"coro sand," which is compound
ed of molding sand with molasses
and flour for a binder, Into the
Interior of Hayden's Interior oat
tern or "core box" were baking
their Interior mold to the con
sistency of a bridal biscuit. Their
product was a "core."
Browned to a brick-hard turn,
the core was mounted in the
"drag" leaving an air space des
tined to become the finished cast
ing. The "cope" was then fitted to
the "drag," forming a rectangu
lar box. Left In the top surface
was a "gate," for the later en
trance of the molten metal; a
"sklm gate," for possible slag
rising to the top during pouring,
and a "riser," for escaping air.
Pouring time, last act of the
foundry day. found line of
boxes ready for casting.
With ladles, large and small,
Gurtle and Gurtle's crew poured
the crimson-hot metal, heated to.
over 2600 degrees Fahrenheit, In
to the boxes, Igniting the box ex
teriors with hot pokers as they
poured In order to burn off ac
cumulated gases which seeped
through the purposely-porous
sand.
The next morning, foundry
men broke down the boxes and
lifted out the finished castings.
But the job wasn't done. If
Harvey Hayden's pattern and
John Gurtle's casting was, for
example, a giant drum for an
overhead crane it was further
turned on a huge lathe In Su
perintendent Edward Kllever's
machine shop which all the
while had been working on pre
cision gears and high tensile
strength steel parts for the ship
yards' completed hoists.
Turned, perhaps drilled and
topped or keyscatcd If necessary,
the drum was complete. But
only In itself.
There was still assembly as
other parts streamed from foun
dry, machine shop and specialty
manufacturers. And testing,
once the crane parts were put to
gether, And painting, after test results
were found acceptable. Crated,
tho crane was ready for ship
ment and Klamath Machine's job
was done on one crane.
But not done for the dura
lion. General Manager Hooker
said the plant has enough war
work alone to keep it operating
at capacity until mid-1943,
. That's a lot of cranes for a
lot of ships. To got at a lot of
Japs.

CHICAGO WHEAT
CHICAGO, July 11 (P)
Wheat, rye and oats prices de
clined today as traders took mar
ket action on the basis of in
creased government estimates of
1942 production of those crops.
Corn, however, rose almost a
cent at times, reflecting the gov
ernment report showing heavier
consumption the past few
months as well as forecast of a
smaller crop than was produced
last year even though acreage is
larger. Grain men said this is the
result of unfavorable weather
during much of the seeding, and
early growth period.
Profit taking and hedging
sales helped to weaken wheat
and many traders anticipated
larger receipts in the southwest
next week might fill the small
remaining terminal and sub-terminal
storage space available.
Wheat closed 3-1 cent lower
than yesterday, July $1.1!)!,'. Sep

Aleutians Threaten
Coast, Grant Says
SAN DIEGO. Calif.. Julv 11
(JP) Hugh S. Grant, former
United States minister to Al
bania and Thailand (Siam) says
Japanese landings on the Aleu
tian islands are extremely men
acing and that there is real
danger of an attack on the west
coast.
'The Japs are going to have
to be licked in the Pacific and
that's not an easy job," Grant
said in an interview. "We
should not let the Coral sea
and Midway victories lead us
to believe that from now on It's
easy sailing.
"Japan is highly vulnerable
to air attack and that will be
one of the means whereby we
can bring about the Japanese
military power collapse," Grant
declared.
