,.~ CPYRGHT LUPZIGERMESSE TECH NISCHER DIENST Great Success of International Economic Conference Next Meeting of Committee for Furtherance of World Trade at Leipzig Fair in September 1952 These lines are being written only a few days after the end of the Inter- national Economic Conference in Mos- cow. Close on 500 leading industrialists, economic experts, and business men from 50 countries met to discuss how the difficulties at present existing in inter- national trade, can best be overcome. They found that it was not only possible to agree on a common platform, but proved it in practice by concluding large- scale trade agreements, which augur well for future trade between Western European and overseas countries on the one hand, and the Soviet Union, China, and the Eastern European countries on the other. At the end of the conference, a Com- mittee for the Furtherance of World Trade, consisting of 30 members, who come from Britain, the USA, China, and the USSR, as well as many other countries, was set up. This Committee decided at its meeting on April 14, to hold its next meeting at Leipzig during the Autumn Fair in September 1952. The Leipzig Fair, which will be held as a Technical Fair and Sample Fair for consumer goods from September 7-17, has been an arbiter in east-west trade for centuries past, and Leipzig is today ready, and better able than ever before, to play its middler role in inter- national trade. The Leipzig Fair is the shop-window for German industry, particularly of the German Democratic Republic, where production is now 36% above the level of 1936. But Leipzig Fair is also to an ever increasing extent being used by the Soviet Union, China, Poland, Czecho- slovakia, Hungary, and many other countries, to show what they are produc- ing and what commodities they are prepared to barter on the world market. Latest reports show that demands for exhibition space by foreign exhibitors are about double those of previous fairs. Czechoslovakia, for instance, has reserved a total area of 48,000 sq. ft. Extensive building projects are at present being carried out on the Technical Fair grounds to make more floor space available, particularly for heavy in- dustry. More details about these projects will be found in the following article. The response from all parts of Europe, North and South America, the Middle and Far East, shows that Leipzig Fair in September will once again prove that it is possible for countries with different social and economic systems to entertain peaceful trading relations with one another. New Building Projects for Leipzig Fair Since the beginning . f the year, build- ing activity has increased on the Leipzig Technical Fair ground,. Already in the autumn of 195], work. was begun on a new exhibition hall 450,`'t. long and 130ft. wide. When on a cold iiebruary day the roof was set up on th first section of the building, the fui iaments of the second section were )eing completed (Fig.1): The hall cons:-.ts of two naves, each of which will be-equipped with a crane construction with a capacity of 16 tons. This new hall is in the meantime nearing completion and will make over 60,000 sq. ft. of exhibition space avail- able, which will in the first place be put at the disposal of firms producing food-processing and refrigerating ma- chinery and machines for the chemical industry. At the beginning of 1952, work was started on a new hall, which will house 25X1A Approved For Release 2002/01/04: CIA-RD For Release 2002/01/04: Cho-RDP83-00415R010 ~00150Q01,1 ~F toot ,~ ,.a m . t Fig.1 the machine-tool industry. The first section will be completed for the Sep- tember Fair. After final completion in 1953, this hall will, with an exhibition :urea of 160,000sq.ft. be, beside the Soviet Hall, the biggest hall on the Technical Fair grounds. Its total length will be over 650 It., and it will he 250 ft. wide. It will have 3 naves, each equipped with its own crane (Fig 2). Both these halls now being built are the realisation of projects which the management of Leipzig Fair is carrying out within the Five-Year Plan of the Geruoan Democratic Republic. Till 1935, a further number of halls will be built. Great building activity is to be ob- served on. the hall of the Soviet Union, whose architecture is being entirely re- constructed. Special building materials brought from the Soviet Union are being used. When the hall. is completed in the summer, it will be the most striking building of the Technical Fair grounds and will without doubt be one of the most beautiful exhibition halls in the world. A number of smaller projects round off the picture of the building prepa- rations for Lcipzi.g Fair 1952, which will, in every respect, be'the greatest and most interesting Fair since the war. New Testing Instrument for the Supervision of Moulding and Core Sand in Foundries Porous castings are in many cases pro- duccd owing to the use of faulty moulding or core sand. Foundry sand which is well permeable to gas, generally eliminates this fault, which im- pairs the quality of the casting, involves a high rate of waste, thus reducing the production and in- creasing the cost. The primitive,though frequently employed testing method of blowing tobacco smoke through the moulding sand or dried core compress- ed in the hand, is quite unreliable and should therefore be repudiated from the standpoint of exact measuring technics.Re- cognizing this fact as well as the necessity that the foundry sand used for a definite metal, is currently tested for permeability to gas and contents of humidity, the firm Geriite- and Armaturenwerk Magdeburg vorm. Schaffer and Budenberg, Magde- burg-Buckau, developed the gas i+erm.e- ability tester shown here, for the deter- initiation of the permeability to gas by means of a sample prepared always un- der the same conditions either by stamp- ing on a ram, or by cutting out of the stamped form, and tested either in a moist or dried condition. The indicating instrument, built into the front board and equipped with a black face ring, shows values between no and 5 cm./minute, de- termined by the time required by the air to pass through, and thus representing an unequivocal measure for the permeability to gas of moulding or core sand. The per- meability to gas is e.g. for metal castings 15. . 60, for thin-walled cast iron 15 .. 25, for machine castings 25..40, for green- sand steel castings 80.. 180, for dry- sand steel castings 150. . 300 cm.)min. Any unskilled labourer will be able to determine these values after a training time of 15 minutes. These values allow conclusions to be drawn regarding the humidity contents of sand, provided that the composition of the sand is uniform. If e.g. the mould- ing or core sand are of the same compo- sition, while the values found for the permeability to gas drop, this is a positive indication of too high a degree of humid- ity contained in the foundry sand used. Hence the dressing of sand is currently examined by the permeability tester. B FT Triodometer Type Tg 4 Electric constants are used in the chem- ical industry for the purposes of quali- tative and quantitative analysis. The Triodometer type Tg 4 measures the pH- value of aqueous solutions, working prac- tically withou t current as continuousten- sion valve voltmeter. The conductivity is measured with low-frequency alternating tension, and the constant of diclectricity with high-frequency alternating tension. The alternating tension required for mea- surements, which is expected to meet particularly high demands regarding the shape of its curve, is produced by a built- in reversible valve generator. In poten- tiometric titrations, the point of equi- valence is indicated by a sudden change of the pointer deflection, in conducto- metric titrations by a change in the direc- tion or speed of the pointer movement. For the purposes of continual super- ..vision of manufacturing methods, a re- cording instrument is connected to the hushes marked "Instrument".

The frame, in which the rollers are arranged one above the other, must be so designed, that vibrations are eliminated even at highest loads and at top speeds of the paper web passing through. Some of the rollers have a spherical body which consists of pressed special material en- suring resilience, while the hard rollers are ingot castings with a great surface hardness (glazing calenders) and may be heated or cooled. Ordinarily the rollers are so arranged that one heating roller is mounted between two elastic rollers. For quick-running calenders, the design of the bearings is a consideration of deci- sive importance. Oleohydraulic pressure is now being preferred at a growing rate. The use of oil as a medium makes the pressure uni- form and free from shocks. All adjustments and changes in the machine are controlled by a switching plant and are simultaneously indicated, such as the regulation of pressure down to instantaneous complete relief of press- ure, the lifting of rollers while the cal- ender is stopping, the actuation of the hydraulically controlled brake on the feed side and on the differential drive of the delivery side. The push-button control board for starting and stopping the cal- ender and the pump, is also arranged on the switch plant. As the latter is mount- ed within the reach of the operator, the machine can be safely operated and attended in its various positions without loss of time. Mounted to the paper-unwinding de- vice, there is a water-cooled hand brake, allowing the production of a uniform and sensitive braking effect, the energy for which is produced by oil pressure. The paper web is reeled by means of a differential drive, i. c. it is designed as a differential type. The differential drive, too, is equipped with a water-cooled hand brake controlled by oil pressure, while the winding tension can be con- veniently read from the manometer. The paper tension can be adjusted finely from kg. to kg. by means of a measuring in- strument, so that it can be suited to the character of the paper. Telephone Conversation of Everybody with Everybody VEB Telektron has developed a tele- phone station for a conference inter- communication and telephone plant for 21 participants. The telephone station consists of a plastic casing containing, in addition to the talking equipment, the 21 press buttons arranged in 3 groups, by means of which the station can be connected with every other station. 1lounted on the right side of the press buttons, there is a red pilot lamp which, when glowing, indicates that the stations controlled by the adjacent row of press buttons, are busy. The button of the desired participant has to be depressed while talking, the connection is establish- ed instantaneously. The name or desig- nation of the participant can be noted on a ledge mounted above the press buttons. Precision Honing Machines HOS 350 sup. The precision honing machine HOS 350 sup. (super-finish), constructed by WMW ii onmaschinenwerk Naumburg VEB, war- rants maximum micro- and macro-gco- metric precision and shortest machining time for work of 6 to 55 mm. diameter and up to 300 mm. long. The construction of the machine is based upon the practi- cal and scientific experience hitherto made in the construction and operation of honing machines. The machine is suit- able for finishing bores of 6-55 mm. diameter, assuring a super-finished sur- face which complies with the greatest demands. If equipped with special hon- ing tools, the machine can also he used for external honing work.

Latest 't'echnical Developments Machines fur the Leipzig Fair Being Developed. In the machine-building far- tories of the German Democratic Bepm- blie, designers, engineers, and workers are intensively engaged in the develop- ment of new machine types. The new samples will be exhibited for the first time at the Leipzig Fair 1952, to be held as a large technical fair and sample fair from September 7th to 17th. Series pro- duction will begin in 1953. The Nilrs- Werke, Cheninitz. e. g. are getting out new designs of sliding and screw-cutting lathes, and the required special machines for the production are being developed at the same time. fhe Fritz Heckert Werke at Chemnitz, which are leading in the construction of milling-machines in Germany, will also exhibit some new designs of heavy construction at the Leipzig Fair. The Fair models are also being manufactured. Motor-Gar Bodies Made of Plastics. X motor-car body of plastics, which reduces considerably the weight of the vehicle, has been developed by the engineers of the people-owned Hartpappenwcrk Polcoz in the. district of Pirna, and of the IFA Association of People-Owned Vehicle Factories. This innovation, whi??Ii is pioneering for the whole automobile industry, answers all requirements of modern engineering in the construction of vehicles. Attempts in the United states and in England to make motor-car bodies out of plastics, were not pro- ductive of satisfactory succes. The first trial ear, whose entire outer walls, iu- cluding the motor hood, mudguards, and luggage carrier, are made of plas- tics. has been successfully running for more than one month. The car was kept going for 16 hours daily on the average, under severest conditions. The first 2,000 cars of the DKW F9 type to he constructed under the National Economic Plan, 1952, will be equipped with the new plastic body. Pilot Boats Launchers.

Diameter The (-titter-head is enjoying growing importance for machining plane surfaces. A carefully ground and true-running cutter-head can be used to produce extra- ordinarily fine surfaces. Furthermore, when doing roughing work., the cutting- rate is considerably increased. The cutter- head grinding machine, therefore, is an indispensable tool. The machine is so de- signed, that perfect grinding of the cutter- heads is assured. The machine can be used for grinding right-hand and left- hand cutting heads. The tool holder is form'-d spherically, supported on two sides, and clamped in position by a star handle. A graduation facilitates Lite adjustment of the cutter angles to be ground. The carrying spindle is arranged vertically and supported in accurately adjustable cone-roller bear- ings. The grinding spindle is mounted to a revolving part on the hearing and per- forms a reciprocatory movement over the cutter to lie ground. After one complete stroke, the cutter-head is automatically moved to place the next cutter into grind- ing position. The grinding spindle is con- structed for left-hand and right-hand operation and can be quickly exchanged if necessary. The grinding wheel is fasten- ed in a support and can be balanced by weighting segments. The grinding spindle is driven by - a three-phase motor with five-stepped pulley and V-belt. The belt can be shifted by hand by loosening the three-phase motor mounted on a slide. Five speeds of 1225-1850-2800-3200-4800 r.p.m. can be used, allowing cutting-speeds from 6-25 m./sec. The grinding measurements are set automatically and elect ro-mcchanically. The revolving part with the grinding spindle is supported on a slide running in a prism of the outer hearing, and can be lifted or lowered by means of a hand wheel to adjust the position of the grind- ing wheel roughly. A scale is provided to facilitate the adjustment of the grinding depth of 0.1-4 mm., and the regulating button serves for adjustments between 0.05-0.2 mm. The automatically work- ing feed becomes smaller towards the end of the grinding operation, whereby the surface quality of the cutting edge is extraordinarily high. By depressing a particularly mark- ed feed lever, an additional grinding depth of 0.005 rum. can be obtained. Manufacturers: WMW Masdtinenfabrik Merlin-Treptow VEB, Berlin=l'rcptow.

Tile vessels are provided with Diesel electric chive, allowing the energy gene- rated to be used either for propulsion or pumping, as required. In the double- screw ship, three DC generators are driven by three Diesel engines of I X 420 and 2X 280 HP, The courrent thereby generated and kept constant is used for the drive of the 8 pumps of 80 kW. cash, or for the drive of the two propeller motors of 280kW. each. In the Voith- Schneider vessel, four Diesel engines of 200 HP generate three-phase current for three sets of pumps or for the two pro- peller motors of 500 kW. total. The Voith- Schneider propeller distinguishes itself by its unsurpassed mann'uvr.dtility, Approved For Release 2002/01/04: CIA-RDP83-00415R010100150001-1 which makes it possible to turn or to keep the boat on the spot against wind, water currents, and the reaction pressure of the fire engines without it being necessary to change the speed or re- volving direction of the driving motors. For this reason, it was possible also to use a three-phase current plant. The boats are equipped for extinguishing fires in rooms and on shore and also have a foam extinguish- ing plant for the control of burning liquids and other dangerous incendiaries. If used as ice-breakers, the bodies of the vessels are provided with an inclined ice- breaker stem and with round ribs. The stern of the two ships extends below the water level, so that drifting ice can not easily get into the propeller.

These tasks are fulfilled by the Dokumator System of the Carl-Zeiss-Werke VEB, Jena. It consists of the Dokumator Camera, the Micro- Books, and the Dokumator Reading-Set. The Zeiss Dolcumator Camera makes reproductions on standard 35 min. film. Almost all its parts are made of metal. The reproduction camera is attached to a post and can be moved and arrested. Its weight is balanced by a counter- weight. The camera is a rigid ininicam with a cartridge for 50 metres of standard film. This amount of film suffices for about 4,800 book pages or 8 volumes with 600 pages each. After every ten frames, an obligatory blind exposure is made. In this way, the exposed, developed, and fixed film can be easily cut into handy strips of ten frames each. The camera is equipped with the special 35 mm. Do- Icumar lens. Each exposure is marked with a number which is photographed together with the object. The camera is provided with a voltage regulator guaran- teeing that the four illumination lamps burn with a constant brightness. The camera is set for the exposure according to two scales, one on the guide post and the other one on the objective. On these scales, you will also find the German Standard Sizes from DIN A 6 up to DIN B 3. Shortly trained operating per- sonnel will easily reach an average of 300 to 400 exposures per hour with or- dinary objects. Measurements of the camera: length 1,150 inrn., width 1,550 mnr., height 1,870 mm. Weight about 285 kg. The film strips of ten exposures each are stored and ar- rar,ged in Dokurator Micro-Books. These honks consist of a cover with folio- ca-ds inside. Each of the folio-cards con- ta'gs 5, 10, or 15 cards as desired, in which the ten-frame strips are stored in- are being prepared, which will take up a whole year's production of the works. Interception of Flying Cinders. The engineer Mr. Paul Ostermann was award- ed a premium of 5,000 DM by the General Managements of the German Railways, in consideration of a now device develop- ed by him for the interception of incand- escent flying cinders. In the smoke-box of the locomotive, the spark-arrester is replaced by a sheet-metal case, which guides the sparks from the outlet to the chimney. Parts which are nearly burnt and which cannot be deflected on account of their smallness, are extinguished and deposited by a screen of water. The in- stallation costs DM 150 per engine. Articles much in Demand for Export. The Polygraph- Druckautomatenwerk, Leipzig 0 27, is producing printing- presses for the graphic trade. In the pre- vious year, 70% of the machines pro- duced have been exported. A fine proof for the high-quality work done by the staff of the enterprise. This success was accomplished above all by the new atti- tude of the workmen to their work. Also for the year 1952, considerable orders have been received from Australia, Norway, Mexico, Venezuela, Finland, and Hungary. Mercedes I and II as well as Mercedes 0, which have been improved or newly developed. since 1945, are greatly demanded for export. dividnally. Contact prints of four ten- frame strips each as well as an index are further features adding to the handi- ness of the book. The Dokumator Reading-Set contains a well prepared white surface, on which the pictures of the ten-frame strip are projected individually one after the other. In order to ensure contrasty projecting pictures also in bright rooms, the Read- ing-Set is provided with a hinged light- hood. Script and pictures can be pro- jected to a white screen by means of a mirror and can thus be observed by a larger number of people. The Reading- Set is further provided with a dia-pro- jecting device for dias of 5 X 5 cm. Large copies can also be prepared with the in- strument. Measurements of the Reading-Set: length 520 mm., width 490 mm., height 690 mm. Weight about 21.5 kg.

The most import- ant stage of devel- opment in the field of Diesel engines in the German Demo- cratic Republic was reached with the Diesel building-box series, produced by the 1FA, association of people-owned ve- hicle-works. The term building- box series covers a outrlber of Diesel engines of different output, but of fully equal basic construc- tion: engines that have been designed as a drive for road, farming, waterway, and rail vehicles, as well as for station- ary service with bullring-machines, and as a drive for compressors and electro-gettcrators. With the development of this build- ing-box series, the IFA staff set itself the task of achieving outstanding, far- reaching standardization, together 'vith it substantial simplification and reduc- tion of cost, in the manufacture and maintenance of Diesel spare parts. A great number of parts can he used for the two-cylinder, as well as for the three, four, and six-cylinder building- box engines, such as: connecting rods, pistons, cylinder blocks. cylinder liners, cylinder heads, cylinder-head caps, valves, valve control, and drive gears. The new construction was based on a four-stroke, watercooled, eddy- chamber Diesel engine with a cylinder capacity of alit. 1.5litres. The technical data are as follows: cylinder bore 115 rllln., cylinder stroke 115 lnm., rate of eotnpression 17.5 :1, attainable mean pressure alit. 7.5 kg., most economic fuel consumption alit. 190 gm./HP/h., cylinder output 15 IHP at 1,500 r.p.m., and 20 HP at 2.000 r.p.m. The de- tarhahle cylinder block, fitted with wet liners, holds the cylinders, two (or three) being cast integrally. This ap- plies to the cylinder head in the same way. The camshaft is drivenbv a helical gearing, lubrication of the engine being effected by a force circulation system with rug-wheel pump of single or twin-type, The. valves are suspended in the cylinder head and are controlled over tappets, push-roils, and tilting levers. Duel is supplied by an IFA standard injection pump under 100 ato pressure through a pivot nozzle. The p11tn1) may be de- livered with a re- gulator, if desired. The Diesel build- ing-box series covers the following types: EM 1-15, two cylin- der of 3,012 c.c. ca- pacity, output 30 HP at 1.500 r-p.m., and 40 H 1' at 2,000 r.p.m.; EM 3-15, three cy- linder of 4,518 c.c. capacity, output 45 HP at 1,500 r.p.m., and 60 Hl' at 2,000 r.p.m.; EM 4-15, four cylinder of 6,024 c.c. capacity, output 60 HP at 1,500 r.p.m., and 80 Hl' at 2,000 r.p.m., and as out- standing type EM 6-15. six cylinder of 9,03( c.c. capacity, output 90 HP at gines are chiefly confined to stationary use, the four-zylindcr EM 4-15 is the "heart" of the well known IFA Iforch "11 3 A" lorry, many thousands of which have excellently stood the severest- tests. The EM 6-15 is the driving engine for the new six-tons IFA Ilorch lorry type "1 16". The Air-Cooled "Granil 32" I.FA Diesel Engine 'I.'his new type of Diesel engine, which is produced by IFA Phanomen-Work, Zittau in Saxony, represents quite it spe- cialty. The Phanomen-Werke, which en- joy world-wide reputation, are known to have been the first sponsors of air-cool- ing for lorry engines in Germany. Their great success was the "Granit 27", a four- stroke fuel engine with four eylinders individually arranged in series, with it stroke volume of 2678 r. c? and a power output of 23 UP at a speed of 2800r,p.m., which has been sold at the rate of tens of thousands with the greatest success. The air-cooling system with blowers, with which this engine was equipped, has given so excellent results, that the engineers of the Zittau IFA. Works have decided to adopt this system also for the new, more powerful, and more economic Diesel en- gine. Thus, the "Granit 32" IFA Phiiuo- ltt en today is a Diesel engine which is a further development of a petrol engine. The four cylinders of the Diesel engine are also arranged individually in series. The cooling air is supplied to the engine by a double blower. The cylinder bore amounts to 90 root., the stroke is 125 nun. The stroke volume of the "Gratin 32" now is 3181 c. c., while its power output amounts to 25 HP at a rate of compress- ion of 18: 1 and a speed of 1500 r.p.nl. Its essential advantage over the petrol engine consists in the fact that it is far less sensitive and, therefore, its life should be much longer. In the first place, the "Granit 32" serves as a driving motor for the robust 1.5-2 to IFA Phanomen high-speed lorries with flat top and box body, as well as for the world-renowned air-cooled Phiinomen ambulance cars. In addition, it attracts more and more atten- tion as a stationary motor and drive for the most diverse machines in industry and agriculture.

It crushes, mixes, and kneads the soap to form fine soap or toilet soap. The soap particles delivered by the machine need only be passed through the string press and are then formed into loaves. A re- fining press with multiple track and built- in mixing and kneading worm is produc- ed by VVB Nagema, Dresden-A. 36. This refining mill is constructed with three or four rollers. The working process within this machine is as follows: The soap flakes which are well premixed in a mixing machine, are fed into a feed box divided into two compartments. The flakes fall into the compartment below the worm. They are then ground only by one half of the roller. The layer of soap is remov- ed from the top roller by a scraper and is transported to the worm, which kneads and mixes it, and presses it through a plate with fine perforations. By this pro- cess, soap noodles are formed which shortly after emerging from the perfora- tions, are cut into small pieces by a rotary knife. These pieces drop through a chute into the other compartment of the feed box, whence they are conveyed to the other side of the rollers for further treat- ment. The soap, which has thus been ground, mixed, and kneaded twice, is stripped from the top roller by means of a scraper and processed further in the string press. Further remarkable fea- tures of the refining mill are: roller- cooling system, lien drdum-type roller- bearings, gear wheels with milled helical teeth, lubrication by oil bath and oil circulation, etc. A special type of re- fining mill is provided with a soap-flake cutting equipment. - Technical data: Diameter of rollers 322 mm., total length of rollers 900 mm., working length of rollers 840 mm., measurements of iria- chine, according to type: 2000 min. long, 2400 nrm. wide, 2300 nun. high; or 1800 nun. long, 2400 m'n wide, 2000 mm. high; net weight 4250 kg. or 3300 kg.; power required 30-35 IIP, or 25-30 IIP, respectively.

Especially black-and-white as well as coloured miniature frames can be project- ed with simple and conveniently priced models. The midget among still-projec- tors is the Miniature Projector 100 W, manufactured by the Carl-Zeiss-Werke VEB, Jena. It serves for the projection of 5 X 5 cm. transparencies as well as 24X 36 min., 24X 24 mni., and 18X 24 mm. positive strips. Its light source, a 220 VI 100 W lamp or a 110 V/100 W lamp, may he connected with the mains directly and without resistance. The projector is suit- able for home and school use. Even with coloured transparencies and projecting distances up to 8 metres, sufficiently bright pictures with at, over-all clarity are achieved. It is equipped with a 100 min. f 3.5 Triplet lens. - For project- ing-distances of more than 8 metres, tie Miniature Pro- jector 250/375 W of tic same manufac- t' rcrs is suited best. Vvith this projector, ti.c same frame sines may be used as with he one described -above. For illniuin- ation either a pho- to-flood lamp 220V/ a resistance connected in series, is used. This model is fitted either with a 1.00 mm. f 2.8 Triplet lens or with a 165 mm. f 2.2 Kipronar lens. Furthermore, this projector is suitable for stereoscopic pro- jection, if there is applied a system of prisms to he attached to the front side of the objective. In this case, however, the projected picture has to be watched through special spectacles. For the direct projection of pictures and written text (without transparencies), an epidiascope is used. An especially re- commendable apparatus of this kind is the Bulb Epidiascope, manufactured by the Carl-Zeiss-Werke VEB, Jena. Illumin- ation is provided by two lamps of 110 volt and 1000 watt each in connection with big asphcrical illumination mirrors. Using 220 volt mains, it is necessary to connect a resistance in series, since the lamps are switched individually. The heat pro- tection is brought about by glass filters. The table surface of the apparatus meas- ures 44X58 cm. With a hand wheel coupled to a spindle drive, it is lifted towards the 20X20 cm. projection dia- phragm, whereafter it is moved back into its original position. Furthermore, a dia- set for the sizes 8.5X8.5 em., 8.5 X 10 em., and 9X 12 cm. is directly connected with this epidiascope. This dia-set has its own illumination. For transparencies 5 X 5 cm. as well as for positive strips on 35 min. film, an additional adapter for miniature frames can be used. During projection it is possible to change from one kind of projection to the other. Measurements of the epidiascope: surface of base 52X 90 cm., height (without mirror mount) 130 cm. Another still-projector is time "Belsa- zar", manufactured by the Carl-Zeiss- Werke VEB, Jena. It is an apparatus for the projection of script. It is one of the features of this model that one can pro- ject script even while writing it. Besides, it can be rebuilt into an X-ray projector. As a script projector, the "Belsazar" re- places the black-board. The lecturer writes on a cellophane tape, and the writ- ing appears on the projecting screen as he is taking it down. Instead of wiping the black-board, as he had to hitherto, the lecturer simply moves the cellophane, tape by means of a control button. How- ever, it is also possible to take down the text on the tape already before the lec- ture. Furthermore, transparencies as well as some chemical and physical experiments can be projected with the "Belsazar". Instead of cellophane tape, ground glass can be employed as well. A 500 watt lamp for 110 or 220 volt serves as light source.

The "Belca" mi- niature camera is of the drop-bed. :,elf- erecting front type. On pressing the bed lock button, it opens, and a robust strut inechanism puts the objective in position ready for action. The camera is either equipped with it 5 cm. f 3.5 Zeiss-Tessar lens in Rapid Compur shutter with speeds up to 1/500 sec., or with a S cm. f 2.9 Meritar lens in Cludor shutter with speeds up to .1./200 sec. The film flattenin, is well provided for. An automatic winding stop prevents the film to be transported by more than one frame at a time. A further feature is the exposure-counting dial. The "Belca" uses standard 35 tun. film. After having exposed the film, it is rewound into a cartridge and may be removed from the camera in daylight. The eye-level optical tube-sight finder is fitted with a cam disc. By means of this disc, the finder aim is altered in close-up work. thus ensuria.g elimination of paral- lax. For ascertaining the zone of focus, a depht-of-focus table is attached to the outer surface of the camera back. An ever-ready carrying-case warrants quiet, manipulation of the camera. Measure- ments of the camera: 1:2.7 X 8.4 X 4.4 cm. Weight approximately 13 ounces. The "Belfoca" camera, too, is quickly ready for action. Even without enlarge,- turn t, fits negative size of` 6X9 cm. is very effective. Of all-rnetall .onstruction, the body is covered with leatherette. In spite of this, the camera weighs only about 18"/4 ounces. A brilliant and a wire-finder are built onto the camera. Not in action, the "Belfoca" is protected by a leather case with neck trap, thus eliminating the danger of being damaged. Its lens is as fast as f 4.5. and its butter provides for long and short exposure times up to r/uw sec. Measurements: 16.1 X8.5X4.1 cot. - I loth cameras are s.ipplied by the Phutovertrieh Dresden-11.21.
