10000 letters were received in ap-

only $40 a performance.
Those were lean days for radio
actors. There were no minimum
salaries and Joslyn played as many
as eight shows a day and 80 week,
including many in which he had a
hand in the writing. He was every

convict, an eccentric topper to a

Purchase of the Lonsdale Com
pany mill in Ashton, Rhode Is
land, to expand production of
Fiberglas was announced here
by Harold Boeschenstein, pres
ident of Owens-Corning Fiber
glas Corporation.
The company has completed
plans to adapt the plant to its
needs and install equipment by
June to manufacture fibrous
glass that subsequently is WOW
en- into all-glass tapes and cloths
used for a variety of purposes,
many of them urgently needed
for defense.
Some 15 Owens-Corning en-
ployees will move to Rhode Is
land from Newark, Ohio-where
Fiberglas manufacturing is now
centered-to get manufacturing
operations under way and super
wise the forming and processing
of glass fibers. Operations in
Ashton will in no way affect or
curtail production in Newark,
Mr.. Boeschenstein said.
Owens-Corning also has
plant in Corning, N. Y. General
offices are in Toledo.
Located Near Weavers
The Ashton plant is in the
Providence industrial area and
was selected, Mr.. Boeschenstein
said, because of nearness to mills
that weave the all-glass tapes
and cloths as we'll as to electri-
cal manufacturers, whose needs
the Ashton plant is primarily
intended to serve. Expansion is
required, Mr.. Boeschenstein said,
because of urgent demands
from the electrical manufactur-
ing industry for Fiberglas to
insulate motors, generators,
transformers and cables, and
from the Army and Navy for
other defense needs.
The Ashton plant faces the
Blackstone River in the town of
Cumberland and is on the Pro-
vidence- Worcester division of
the New York, New Haven and
Hartford railroad. Located on a
four-acre site, it has approx

mately 10000 square feet OF
floor space.
Besides manufacturing glass
fibers for electrical insulation,
the Fiberglas corporation makes
Dust Stop air filters, and glass
wool for building insulation, in
sulation of household equipment
(like refrigerators, ranges, wa
ter heaters and boilers), glass
wool blankets, boards, and pipe
covering for many industrial US
es, as we'll as thermal and acous-
tical insulating materials for
ships and aircraft. Approximate
ly forty per cent of the firms
current production is going IN
to defense work, Mr.. Boeschen-
stein said.
Used In BOmbers
Just back from the West Coast
where he visited plane factories
and shipyards, he cited the use
of Fiberglas in various forms on
planes and ships. AS an example
he pointed to the use of one
fourth to one-third of a mile of
Fiberglas-insulated wire in med
ium bombers now under con-
struction. Work of wire and
cable manufacturers has made
possible the use of inorganic FL
berglas insulation, he was in.
formed, to afford fire safety and
effect a saving in weight, both
important in airplane design. He
cited as other defense uses ac-
oustical insulation for planes as
we'll as thermal and acoustical
insulation which is specified for
naval vessels and ships being
built for the Maritime Commits
sion. Fiberglas products, includ-
ing navy insulating wool, glass
cloth, insulating boards and
blankets and pipe covering, are
being used, and are specified, he
said, for hull insulation, insula-
tion of crews quarters, bulk
heads, ammunition magazines,
gun turrets, tween deck spaces,
and pipe wrapping. On this item
alone there is a potential weight
saving of II tons on a battleship
because the glass cloth weighs
eight ounces per square yard in
contrast to materials previously
used weighing two and one
fourth pounds per square yard.
Use of Fiberglas insulation
throughout these ships effect ev-
en- greater total weight savings.
The company's laboratory and
research staff is doing develop
ment work on other potential
applications where the unique
characteristics of the inorganic
fibrous glass material may play
a defense role. Among these, Mr..
Boeschenstein said, is use of
glass cloth for airplane wing
covering.
Insulation made of Fiberglas
wool is being used in tanks, ar
mored cars, trucks. The firm is
manufacturing "PF" bonded
glass wool to insulate refrigera-
tors for mobile field kitchens for
the army.
Company Formed in 1888
Owens-Corning Fiberglas cor
poration was formed Nov. /,
1888. An independent corpora
tion that manufactures glass in
fibrous and filament form, it
springs from the research activi-
ty of two old established glass
companies - Owens-Illinois and
Corning Glass Works - which
carried on from 1881 to 1888
the experimental and develop
ment work which created the
processes and made commercial
manufacture practical.
After quantity production me-
thods devised in pilot plants had
demonstrated that these one
time laboratory products were
economically practical for wide
commercial use, Owens-C Corning
acquired all of the assets that

U. 5. May Ask Britain
To Post Two Billion
Assets as Collateral
Arms Plan Is Proposed to
Supplement $500, ,000, 900
Investment Deal
BY tie Associated Press.

BY lie Associated Press.
Highly-placed Federal officials said
today that the British government
might be asked to put up about
$4,000, 100000 of British assets in the
United States as collateral for war
materials President Roosevelt has
proposed to lend" to Britain.
These authorities, who declined to
be quoted by name. reported that
the plan was being considered ear
nestly" to supplement proposal by
large New York investment trusts to
purchase approximately $6O0,OO000O
of British investments in this coun-
try. One said this phase of the deal
might come to head in a few
days"
The investment trusts were re-
ported to be interested chiefly in
buying British-owned stocks and
bonds Of American corporations.
Whatever is left, if this deal goes
through, will be American real estate
and British-owned companies or
subsidiaries operating here. These
represent the largest proportion of
British holdings in this country and
are understood to exceed $4,000 000,-
600 in value. According to the plan
under consideration, these would be
placed in escrow with a Government
corporation, as collateral for the war
material.
Tentative Approval Reported.
The officials indicated that this
procedure had at least tentative ap-
proval in administration quarters
and did not conflict with President
Roosevelts recent statement that
it would be silly to measure British
aid in terms of dollars.
The President was reported to have
told various persons that the British
should dig into their barrel of finan-
cial assets in order to justify the
material loans he proposed. He was
described as believing that it would
be unfair for the British to own
billions of wealth in this country yet
plead inability to pay for war ma
terials.
It was also said, however, that he
took the view that some program
for lending materials was necessary
first because available assets would
not pay for all needs, and second
because many of the assets would be
difficult to convert into cash as
speedily as would be necessary.
Presumably, informed persons said,
the SLOW" assets that might be put
up as collateral for munitions event.
ually would become American prop
erty and be liquidated gradually.
The British investments nearly
all represented what individual
British investors or companies once
owned. Most of them have been
sequestered and taken over by the
British government.
The investments sought by the
American investment trusts are all
we'll known stocks and bonds listed
on the New York Stock and Curb
Exchanges. But the other assets
range all the way from ownership
of large industries in this country
to title to thousands of acres Of
Texas range land.
