HOME DESIGN NO. 231) Here the designers have captured all the simplicity of colonial styling and combin- ed it with the convenience of modern split level construc- tion. There are no long MONTREAL (CP)--The~-set- ting up of a $3,000,000 plant to eliminate the annual importa- tion of $1,000,000 worth of spe- cial paper tape is the latest stage of a nine-year-old "made in Canada' campaign by a company with its head office here. The new facility, to be in operation at Northern Electric Company's plant ip suburban Lachine by early 1966, will re- place the imported tape--used as wire insulation--with pulp insulation, In the new process, wet 'pulp will be formed around bare copper wires, color coded and then baked dry. The traditional method of preparing insulation for telephone wires had con- sisted of winding paper in a spiral about the copper strand. The replacement of United States paper tape by Canadian' pulp is part of a program which has resulted in: the elimination by the company of more than 9,000 imported items. C. A, Peachey, vice-president and general manager of the communications equipment divi- sion of Northern, said "the end result of our program was that we transferred to Canadian) manufacturers over this nine-| year period components which) were costing us $12,700,000 a! year to import." CREATE NEW JOBS The program, he said, also) led to the creation of some 1,700) new jobs Describing the start of the! campaign in 1956, Mr. Peachey| said the company aimed at having one year's savings on imports offset tooling costs. To the end of 1961, the com- pany had spent $2,800,000 on tooling and had saved $2,600,000 costs connected with the pro- gram. The company considered this fairly close to its original target. The program has resulted in the company's beifig able to 'Made In Canada' Label Electrical Firm's Pride lower the imported content of its products to less than five per cent, The Economic Council of Can- ada estimates that the country as a whole imports some 17 per cent of its fully manufactured goods, Aside from the possibility of lower costs, a "made in Can- ada" program has a_ further advantage, that of developing techniques, a spokesman said. Mr. Peachey gave this exam- ple: 'A small but expensive electron tube is the heart of the trans-Canada microwave sys- tem and is also used for de- fence communications, It is manufactured to exceptionally close tolerances." For a long while the tube was imported, but "we now make this in Canada .. . and our communications systems are no longer' dependent on an im- ported electron tube, "There are further benefits to be gained. Every time we make an item like this in Canada we lay a foundation of new skills which make possible more com- plicated processes." GIVES EXAMPLE T. N. Davidson, manufactur- ing and engineering superin- tendent, gave another example of an operation which had tech- Inical benefits. He described the construction of a machine used to seal the bulb of an electron tube to the} glass base and to exhaust the| lair from this assembly. 'We normally make our own special purpose machines, if they are not. commercially available,"' he said. 'However, in this instance, to keep capital costs and imported content down, we canibalized an old imported machine... ." The extensively re - worked machine resulted in a $25,000 saving over the imported cost, he said, and its development led to an increased understand-| ing of high vacuum. any worn ones, At the same] time, inspect washer' seats} which may have roughened; if] so, they should be smoothed.

ANSWER: Yes, easily. Hard- ware stores and many house-| wares dealers stock a very ef- ficient "shorty" hanger for just this kind of job. It is cylinder- shaped, in two pieces, with the inside piece a screw. Drill the hole, insert the cylinder, turn the screw as much as pos- sible.

WATER PIPES RUMBLE QUESTION: Whenever faucets are turned on, the while the water is running, there is rumbling in the pipes. How can this be eliminated? ANSWER: The noise may be due to some of the supports of the horizontal pipes having loosened which could set up vibration when water is run- ning. Tightening any loosened supporters, or even adding some new ones, may cure the condition. Or there may be loose washers as a result of wear and tear.
