Before repainting garden furni- ture, wash all the surafces, rinse and allow to dry thoroughly. If the previous coat had a glossy surface, 1t should be rubbed down with fine sandpapr, then dusted of, or If the old paint is flaky or clipped, remove all loose particles with a wire brush and smooth down with a medium sandpaper. If a paint and varnish remover is used, take care that any wax residue is thoroughly removed with tiirpentine befor 6 primer coat is applied. The surface then should be ready for paint or enamel, which should be put on exactly ac- cording to directions on the can.

ESQ Rot Complaints
Received by Department

Approximately $50 rat complaint
calls have been received during the
past two days by the Health Depart
ment's Bureau of Sanitary Inspec-
ton, in response to the depart
ment's rat control program.
Meanwhile, new impetus was
given the program yesterday when
Mrs. Theresa MCGEE, secretary for
health of the National Council of
Social Agencies, offered to call a
meeting of all Washington social
agencies to discuss the rodent prob
lem and to cooperate with the
Health Department.
The Bureau of Sanitary Inspec-
tion, answering the rat complaint
calls to the limit of its personnel,
found that in most cases where rats
we're reported troublesome, refuse
and garbage had been handled care
lessly. The District health officer
again appealed to all hcuseholders
to keep garbage in metal containers
equipped with close fitting covers as
required by police regulations.
The current rat control program
was organized to prevent the spread
of typhus fever after two cases had
been reported in the District within
the last month.

HARTFORD, Conn, Feb. 13-An
outstanding example among Ameri-
can defense factories of the intensi-
fication of plant use to increase pro-
duction is to be found in the Hamil-
ton standard propeller division of
United Aircraft Corp
Although floor space in the factory
has been doubled, from an original
25O,000 square feet to 100000 square
feet, production has been far more
than doubled and is now believed to
be nearing the rate of $500 propel-
lers month, although exact figures
cannot be announced. The division,
under terms of existing contracts, is
to produce 23,5O0 propellers.
The much larger propeller division
of the Curtiss-W Wright Corp at Cald-
well. N. j., with approximately
100000 square feet of space avail
able, on the other hand, is expected
to produce only $4,000 propellers
under terms of existing commit
mentS

The comparatively great produc-
ton from the Hamilton plant here
has been achieved through intensifl-
cation of the use of space. compact
ness of machinery and moderniza-
ton of tooling and the extensive

mately IS per cent of the man-hours

ample. is carried on outside the
Hamilton plant.
An innovation in the production
of propellers here is the use of a
dull satin finish instead of the
former mirror finish on propeller
blades. For war use the duller finish
is an advantage; its use eliminates
an entire operation which con-
sumed a great deal of time and tests
have shown the propellers to be as
safe and satisfactory as the former
type. it is claimed
Officials and privileged visitors to
the Pratt & Whitney, engine division
of United here can tour the many
acres of factory space, with their
miles of lanes between close-packed
machines. in complete comfort
these days. The plant has acquired
several of the two passenger power
driven sightseeing cars from the re-
Gently closed New York World Fair
Grounds. Plant employees have
christened them ''strugglebugs" and

traffic congestion to the grind of de-
fense production.

pared program Of the organizations

.939, The division was set up to
provide raw materials, tools. plant
facilities and an adequate system of

Personnel Being Trained.

The great defense plant. as a re-
suit, has been way ahead" on tools,
materials and subcontracting and,
barring unforeseen circumstances
should be able to continue its pro-
duction schedules without delays on
these accounts. it was explained
The war plans division also has un-
dertaken the task of training pro-
duction and engineering personnel
As to personnel, Pratt & whitney
and Hamilton Standard to date have
managed to keep fairly we'll abreast
of plant expansions. Anticipated
future expansions may create per-
sonnel difficulties within the next
few months. it is admitted.
An example of the uncertainties
Of life in an expanding defense
plant was the result of recent
radio broadcast from the floor of
the Pratt & Whitney factory, in
connection with a Nation wide de-
fense program Radio engineers
studied all departments of the plant
to locate a suitable sound back
ground" for the broadcast. They
selected the gearshop and set up
their microphones and equipment
there the evening before the broad
cast. The morning of the broad
cast, however, they found their
equipment in a temporary desert.
The entire gearshop had been
moved away overnight.
