WHAT ABOUT COATED LENSES?

half stop. With the latitude of to-
days films, that fractional increase
is of little or no consequence.
The reduction of these reflections
by coating the glass surface tends
to increase the brilliancy of mega
tives. This Improvement is techni-
cally of impol lance. sabut actually
the average person finds it difficult
tc notice the difference. except in
rather extreme cases. In many in.
stances a good lenshade will prob
ably do the job just about as we'll.
II your new camera comes equip
ped with a coated lens, well and
good. OF course if you have a
camera which does not have d
coated lens. you can arrange to
have the elements coated, although
many photographers question the
ACCESSIBILITY. 1t is an expensive
process for the improvement az
forded, and there is always some
danger in allowing anyone but a
manufacturer to take a lens apart
and subject it to the treatment re.
Quired in coating. If you are reas-
onably satisfied with the job your
present lens is doing, do not rush
out to have it coated unless you
are thoroughly convinced that this
is necessary and that new and
different type of lens coated by
the manufacturer will not do the
job better.
Tabor City tribune. (Tabor City, N.C.) 1946-1991, 1947-08-29

One OF the most talked about
innovations in Photographic equip
ment today is the coated lens
Most OF the newer cameras have
them and the turore which has
been raised over lens coatings is
enough TO make many amateurs
believe that their uncoated lens is
as obsolete as the horse and buggy.
Let's look at the matter Objec-
lively.
Most OF the better quality lenses
of the type known as "Anastig-
mats" are made up of several
pieces of different types OF glass,
some of which may be cemented
together and others OF which may
be separated slightly in the lens
mount. The spacing of these lenses
must be held to an almost unbe-
lievable degree of accuracy if the
lens is to perform properly. The 4.
or 8 air.to. glass surfaces in these
lenses unite TO reflect small per-
centage of the light which should
pass right on through the lens to
the film. In theory. therefore. the
lens is not operating at optimum
efficiency.
A thin coating of material such
AS fiuoride salts will cut down the
reflections in the average lens to
the point of increasing the lens
efficiency from one-fourth to one.

USDA Specialists Tell
How To Clean Shades

Skimmilk is a good cleaner for
paper lampshades, both those of
unfinished paper and those with
shellac, varnish or Waxlike fin
ish, according to home manage
ment specialists of the U. S. De-
partment of Agriculture. Do not
use water on paper shades be-
cause it softens and may break
or damage the paper. Milk, on
the other hand, does not pene-
trate paper readily because of its
casein content. 1t slips over the
surface carrying soil with it.
A small amount of milk pour
ed on the shade and rolled around
cleans many papers we'll. AS the
milk darkens with dirt, fresh
supply should be used. Sponging
the milk on with a soft cloth
hastens the cleaning. However, if
the cloth roughens the paper, this
method should not be used.
The caSein in milk is a rather
genatinous material that picks up
and absorbs dirt. Cleaning with
milk leaves slight finish on the
paper shade.
The first step in cleaning the
shade is to dust inside and out
with a soft clean cloth, soft
brus hor hand vacuum cleaner.
Then sponge the surface very
lightly with a cloth dipped in
milk, using about fourth cup
full for large shade. Support the
shade by placing it on table
and hold it by the top wires,
turning as you clean in order not
to bend the paper. Use a fresh
cloth and fresh milk as either
shows soil. The milk should not
stand on the shade or moisten
the glue If the milk seems to be
softening the paper, allow the
shade to dry before continuing.
A very soiled shade may need
second application after it dries.
Be careful with shades made
of two layers of paper. If soil has
seeped in between the layers,
cleaning the lining with milk
may leave streaks.

Milwaukee QLNS).-In a tele-
gram to William Green, president
of the American Federation of La
Dor, Anthony Doria, secretary
treasurer of the AFL- United Auto
Workers, asked the AFL head to
use "every available resource 4.
toward forcing the creation of an
investigating committee" to deter
mine if present legislators in Con-
gress are receiving any support or
assistance obligating them to serve
these interests regardless of the
national welfare.
The investigation was urged in
connection with the Taft-Hartley
labor bill. Copies of the telegram
were sent to President Truman,
Secretary of Labor Schwellenbach,
Chief Justice Murphy of the Su-
preme Court, Clerks of the House
and Senate and to the Judicial
and Labor committees in both
Houses.
The telegram to Green declared
that enactment of the Taft-Hart-
ley bill twill precipitate an all
out war between industry and la
Dor of a magnitude that will not
only threaten, but possibly destroy
every vestage of free democratic
processes in our nation" and add
ed:
ut is impossible to reconcile the
support given the slave labor bill
by our legislators with the welfare
of free democratic nation such
as ours. Such dereliction in the
responsibilities and obligations of
legislators committed to the ma
tional welfare is at least conducive
to the suggestion that sinister and
evil forces and interests, who
greedily seek to capitalize upon the
advantage created by
such action, regardless of the
chaos which may follow, have cap
tured and now completely control
and dominate the actions of these

Priest AsSuiIs
Board Ruling

New York City (ILNS).-The
Rev. William j. Kelley, chairman,
of the State Labor Relations Board,
vigorously criticized here a two-to-
one board decision made against his
descent over a complaint filed by
the United Financial Employees,
AFL, against Harris, Upham &
Co., Wall Street brokers.
The company's employees had
voted 1877 to lis against the union.
Keith Lorenz and Meyer Goldberg,
board members, rejected the union
contention that implied threats by
the firm against employees was a
basis for vacating the election and
holding another.
Father Kelley said, "a very SIM
pie issue is involved herein-wheth-
er, under all the circumstances,
the employees had an opportunity
to exercise their right of free choice
in the election.
"The employers actions and
statement cast substantial doubt
on that question, and | am unable
to reconcile the holding of the ma
jority with the previous decisions
in which they have joined me.

leagues in an indiscriminate usage
of so important right as that of
freedom of speech. Accordingly, the
petition should not be dismissed

down negotiations between the
United Mine Workers-AFL and
the nations soft coal operators en-
tered their third week as the
UNIV for the first time disclosed
its demands for a new contract.
Possibility of strike on July /,
when the government turns back
the pits to private operation, was
not ruled out as the UNIV met
separately with northern and
western mine owners, represent
ing 1870 of the bituminous produc-
tion, and the southern operators.
The mine unions demands in
cluded an increase in the health
and welfare fund assessment from
the present 5c-a-ton to probably
10c; either the same pay for a
five-day week as for the present
six or else the same pay for an
eight hour day as for the present
nine. Also near the top of the
UNIV demands were doubling of
the current 15-ninute underground
lunch period and universal mine
safety code.
More than $500 mines, now
operated by the government, must
be returned to their owners at
midnight June 30. Interior Secre-
tary Krug has made it clear that
the mines will be relinquished even
if it means a nationwide strike.
Meanwhile last week the Coal
Mines Administration ordered 10
day vacations. with 500 pay for
the 350,000 miners in the $500
pits beginning June 2S.

Strike SeffIed
Increase Granted

GAGE Bay, 49,. S. (ILNS).-The
$4,000 members of the United Mine
Workers of America in Nova SEQ
tia and New Brunswick, who
struck on February Is for higher
wages, have returned to work as
result of an agreement provid-
ing pay increase.
The settlement formula calls for
a daily wage increase of $1.40 as
asked by the miners, but of this
81 is straight increase with no
strings attached. The payment of
the balance depends on whether
there is increased production at the
mines, to the approval of the COM
pany. The company had offered 81
wage increase per day but all con-
tingent on increased production.
The UNIV had also sought contri-
buttons by the company to pension
and sickness funds of the union.
Indications are that the pension
payments will be made to some ex-
tent but no mention has been made
of donations to the sickness fund.

Labor Bill Veto

Washington (LPA)-AFL Presi-
dent William Green expressed his
belief last week that if President
Truman follows his own logic he
will veto the Taft Hartley slave
labor bill.
In a nationwide broadcast, Green
carefully summarized the huge dis
crepancies between the Taft-Hart-
ley program and the sentiments
expressed by Truman in his annual
message to Congress. In his ad-
dress Green declared that "The
measure repudiates and flouts the
Presidents own recommendations
to Congress"
Said Green: OBVIOUSLY, the Taft

advice on all counts. 1t is sweep
ingly punitive. One of its spon-

INuf'I Recession

Washington (LPA)-Some dan
gerous "soft spots" which may re-
suit in a breakdown of the whole
structure of the economy, and lead
to recession, were pointed out
last week by Commissioner of La
Dor Statistics Evan Slague in his
monthly review of the employment
situation.
Clague said that while en-
ployment was still at all-time rec
ord levels, there was a disturbing
decline in construction activity,
which ordinarily should rise with
the arrival of summer weather.
The $4,000 new permanent dwell
ing units started in April are 1000
below the number started in that
month last year.
The fur and women's apparel in
dustries have been hit by layoffs,
and some other light goods indus
tries such as tobacco, leather and
rubber also have shown declines
and might be regarded as "soft
spots"
Consumer resistance to high
prices was cited by the Bureau of
Labor Statistics head as the cause
of the declines, both in construc-
tion and in clothing industries.
The slight falling off of employ
ment in manufacturing is the first
ince the early post-VE Day recon-
ersion and retooling layoffs. Also,
a slight falling-off in the number
of hours worked each week was
seen in April, the first time that
the workweek has averaged below
40 hours since early 1912
