NOTICE

Effective with this issue, JPRS is implementing a new numbering system for

its reports in which the dual numbering system currently in use will be

replaced with a single 15-character alphanumeric code. Within this code,

each JPRS report will have a unique trigraph code. For example, the

alphanumeric code for the first JPRS JAPAN REPORT issued in 1984 will be:

JPRS-JAR-84-001

Explanation of Elements of Alphanumeric Code

JPRS: Indicates that the report was published by the Joint

Publications Research Service

JAR

84

001

Trigraph code for the JAPAN REPORT

Indicates the year in which the report was published

First report in the series. Each report series will have

a separate numbering system that will begin with 001 on

1 January every year and will end on 31 December every

year with whatever 3-digit number has been reached.

The alphanumeric code described above will appear in the upper left-hand

corner of each report. The date the report was prepared for publication

will appear on the line below the code.

cement was put into trial operation at this enteprise's cement plant on

1 June 1983. When the whole fitting project is completed, this plant's

annual cement output will reach 1.1 million tons, making it one of three

large cement plants in the country having an output capacity exceeding

1 million tons. Measuring 100 meters in length and 4.5 meters in diameter, this cement kiln was designed and built by personnel of this plant.

It was completed 6 months ahead of schedule and built at a cost 30 percent less than the original estimates. The cost per ton of cement produced by the rotary kiln is 10 percent less than that of ordinary cement

produced in the country, making it possible to realize 8.16 million

yuan in profit and tax annually.
