Lack of Competent Operation a Men,

Cities often spend thousands of dol
publication plant or sewage disposal
works and then place in charge Of it's
operation a political appointee with no
claim. to technical knowledge. The
evils of this practice commented
upon in a recent paper by DR.. Allan j.
Mclaughlin of the United States pub
lie health service. He said in part:
1.-The greatest obstacle to proper OPP
Grafton and control Of plants has been
the difficulty Of securing the right man
to place in charge of the plant. The
best type of man for this position is a
graduate in sanitary engineering. He
will not only be cOnversant with the
mechanical details of the plant, but will
be able to adjust his chemicals accord
ing to the constituents and needs of
the raw water. Most important Of all.
he will be able to make daily bacteri-
illogical examinations to determine the
efficiency of publication. Nearly all
the disasters due to sewage polluted
water supplies which have occurred
we're due to lack Of daily bacteriolog-
zeal knowledge Of the public supply or
the inefficient operation of plants by
unskilled men. The employment of
such a graduate is economy ever in
small. cities. Record:

Records show that rope manufac-
tured from the fiber Of palms was used
In Egypt long before the days of Chris
tianity. Such ropes were found in the
tombs Of Benz Hassan 1000 B. c. and
on the walls Of these same tombs are
illustrations depicting the preparation
Of hemp. Carvings found in tombs in
Thebes represent the process Of max
ing rope from thongs Of leather. about
1000 B. c., and Assyrian sculptures of
about fifty years later show gigantic
hauling operations performed with
rope. These records are of particular
interest as Indicative of the steps
luTOuSu WulCu IOpC HldluliCluIc pHSS-
ed in the early ages.
The relative efficiency Of manila rope
and leather betting for the transmits
sion Of power is not directly proper
tiOnal to their respective strengths.
however. as the internal construction
Of hemp rope and Il strip Of leather
differ greatly and very differently by
wear. Manila fibers from which the
ROPE is manufactured are usually from
eight to ten feet in length. are COM
posed Of elongated cells that possess
great strength longitudinally. but are
comparatively weak transversely.
Leather. on the other hand. is about
equally strong in any direction, so that
the wear on such a belt is mostly ex-
ternal. In a manila rope the wear is
largely internal. the elongated fiber
cells being crushed together when pass
ing around a sheave and breaking up
into short pieces. A wornout rnanila
rope. so far as its strength is concern
ed. may have the outward appearance
Of an excellent rope. while internally
it's construction is but a mass Of short.
broken particles. The allowable work
ing stress of a good leather belt is GUS
tomarily taken as 800 pounds per
square inch. or about one-tenth it's ten
sile strength. In the course Of a year
or so a manila rope will lose about so
per cent of it's original strength. after
which the weakening becomes more
gradual. Under such conditions it is
safe to figure on an allowable working
stress of about 2SS pounds per square
inch. or one-thirty-second it's tensile
strength.
