moving the met chandise too often The term breaking down an operation In misleading It would be more truthful to say that the system employed at the Colllngwood plant In to make one operator do incomplete ration where other pottcrles Ii em ploy number each to do part of the operation lha mntter of putting trans fer on plate can employ from seven to 10 girls In some plants depending on the equipment be ing used At Colllngwood one operator does the whole oper etinn at first glance this may seem retrograde step In this world of automation but there aread vantages thre team works on an operation the speed of that crew must depend on the speed of the slowest girl Fare ther in atesmheach to depend cut on the other for the size of the pay packet When the team ls aoneglrl affair the speed of the operation and the sire of the pay packet Is dependent on the operator only There is greater incentive for the operator to try and improve her work quiring four or five girls to opv erate lhc man with the logical approach has his solution Very often It is not pmctical Youldont have the production you have huge investment In machine of that kindV and when we considered putting gold lines on the edge of our dinner ware we sat down to think how it could be done the cheapest way Waresolved the problem by going out and buying used gramophone motors that turned at 78 rpm and we paid $750 aplece for them The girl sets plate on theturntahle with her right hand she rolls roller along piece of plate giasvon which is the gold and then she merely holds the roller against the edge of the plate as it turns We have found that the speed with which these girls put on the gold line is about twenty per cent greater than the speed attained by any of monster this one operation we have cut ourtiahor cost down to probably Theusual method of applying gold line on dinner plate isl by semiautomatic machine reI for it Whether you do or notr machines put In by tterles In mum the second plant

hedolng this operation within couple of hours UNION RESTRICTIONS Jack Browne makes no claim to being clevcrer than his cone petitors but rather points to the fact that me majority of them are handicapped byunion re strictions These other fectorles around the world are well aware of how to save the time but they are confined by union restrictions He cites the case 01 large American pottery which created machine that eliminated four teen girls The machine cost $50000 and required only two girls instead of sixteen previ ously to operate it The union in sisted that man who had also been one of the crew previously shouldbe retainedjhe mans sole function was to put little gold pints into hopper every iclal confirms tion has been received as yet it Is general lyvbelleved that this plant will be occupied by Universnl Coolers Negotiations are in hoursterateoftaperheur In our particular plant we have no union problems We Just go ahead and do We are very fortunate and probeny that is the whole success We have ust done what common sense has dictated all the way through to save time and labor TRADE TRADITION It is clear that no tradition of the trade has hampered the pro It Is claimed that girl can be gress of the company and it is possibly the lack of precedent that fires the whole plant with sense of adventure It is in con stant state of change new ideas new methods are being tried at the present time plans are at the blucplint stage for cut ting lnbor down another 30 per cent and at the some tune pro viding better lobs for the folks we do have working We are not content to be static We visualize the time when we shall develop into pusbbutton industry We have models now where whole opera tions are taken over byphotn electric cclls Of course this Is nothing new other industries have but It is new to our plant because no one has shown us how it can he done Georgian China dam not make the dinnerware at the present time but the problem Is being tackled That Is
