STANDARDIZATION OF PARTS

the Manufacturing Business.

eli Whitney's Scheme Revolutionized
the Manufacturing Business.
The system of the Standardization of
parts, now so universal, originated with
Eli Whitney, the inventor of the cot
ton gin, when he undertook to make
muskets. The government gave him a
contract in 1893 for 10000 stands of
arms, although he had no plant for
their manufacture. He built small
factory in New Haven, Conn.,, and be-
gan work, but found a great obstacle
in the difficulty of getting good work
men, especially those capable of acting
as foremen under his novel methods.
His plan, as is pointed out by George
lies in a recent original study of Whit
ney's achievements, was to make of
his factory a single huge machine. In
an armory before Whitney's day each
man, highly skilled, produced by him
self a distinct part of a musket. This
division Of labor Whitney supplanted
by so apportioning work that little or
no skill was demanded. He separated
the various tasks and at each of these
operations kept group busy. For
their assistance he simplifled each OPP
Grafton and introduced three aids since
Indispensable in manufacture-dri
by templets or patterns, filing by jigs
or guides and milling irregular forms.
From first to last a model musket
was copied with precision so that ev-
cry lock, for example, was exactly like
every other among thousands. When
all the parts needed to form weapon
were assembled they united much Su-
perior to musket formed on any 9th
er plan. In case of repair new part
exactly fitted the place of an old part
and at a trihing cost
In order to accomplish his purpose
and carry out his contract. whose exc
cution was much prolonged, Whitney
was obliged to invent new tools and
machines at every step. none of which
was patented. BY doing so he not only
greatly improved the finish and accura-
cy of his guns and the speed of their
manufacture. but so impressed the val
ne of the idea of Standardization upon
the minds of manufacturers that it was
presently applied in other trades and
has long since become the rule in man

C. 0. P. LEADERS
SENTENCED TO
STATE PRISON

New York, Jan. 6.-AIderman Percy
L, Davis, who was the Republican
candidate for congress from the 5Oth
district at the last election, and who
was convicted, last week on the
charge of extortion, was sentenced,
today, by Justice Golf, to not less than
one year nor more than one year and
eight months in states prison. Eben
J. Owen, the former evangelistic
f'Tombs angel" who was Davis con-
federate in the scheme, was given a
similar sentence.
Davis and Owen extorted $5,O15
from Mrs. Eva B. Carroll and her
daughter, living in the Arrowhead
Apartments, for suppressing an affi-
davit attacking the two women.
Former Congressman William S.
Bennett Davis counsel, made an elo-
,quent attempt to win a suspension of
sentence for Davis. He said the con-
viction of Davis had been punishment
enough, that he could never live down
the shame, that his public career was
blasted forever and therefore the pun
ishment in the way of a term in pris-
on servitude would be approaching
the t'crueI and unusual forbidden by
the constitution.
