Danes Invent
New L0w-COst
Refrigerator

A Copenhagen firm, Everest,
has just begun the production of a
new domestic refrigerator which
Is especially cheap both i'm pur-
chase price and running costs.
Refrigeration is produced by the
ordinary ABSORPTION method: a
heat element causes a fluid to
evaporate and the air is cooled by
the gases given off. By technical
improvements the firm has sue
ceeded in cutting down the heating
process to minimum, the amount
of power being only kilowatts a
Gay. The price: 6S5 kroner (about
$1,000.
Negotiations are now proceed
ing for the manufacture of the
refrigerator in other countries by
special license. In Sweden pro-
duction under the Danish patent
has already begun.
1t is worth noting here that
Denmark has for many years had
q highly developed refrigeration
industry, turning out plants of ev-
cry description, from the smallest
models fitted in ice-cream carts.
to the giant ship refrigerators and
cold storage warehouses.
Refrigeration machines and spare
parts are one of the eountry's most
important export lines.

Tbs 10 the way II was done:
Chairman Of the House Admin
lnafntion Committee, Mrs. Mary
Merton M-NJ), took the floor one
afternoon. when nothing much
was going on. 10 introduced num-
her ~ routine bills. The last one
% come along was the extra al
lQWancc to Congressman. Mrs.
Norion was getting unanimous
consent 10 have the other routine
bills considered. and she pushed
ire pay allowance raise through
wlth unanimous consent also.
when Rep. Church (R-IlD and
others heard about passage Of the
pay allowance increase for men,
bers. under a unanimous request,
and without discussion on the
floor. they got hot. Church took
the floor and said he had been
called off the floor temporarily
when the bill passed, but that he
would have objected. otherwise.
Ne said the manner in which the
blll was brought up and passed
dldnt suit him.
Mrs. Norton defended her ac-
ton the next week. She said
anyone who wanted 10 save the
government money need not hire
an extra secretary. But this did
not seem 10 quiet the directors.
They said they would carry the
fiehi into the Appropriations
Committee.
Regardless Of the need for an
extra secretary (which this re-
pnrtcF thinks Is non-existent in
most officcs), the bill which will
enai the u. s. taxpayer about a
million and a half dollars ian
exira $500 TO every. member
~ the lower house-there are
ta5 of thcml ought TO be debat-
ed ON the floor.
Such bills shouldn't be run
through the House like a SIM
ple administrative expense.
There Is a basic question in
vnlved--do the people of this
country think members of the
lever house should spend this
additional money in order to
have another job opening in
their Offices? In the case dis
e,lmed above there was no ef-
fort to find an answer to this
question. and that alone is suf-
flrlenl ground 10 warrant a
closer investigation into the
need Cor such an increase in
elcrk hire allowances for House
members.

working on the Convent Audi
forum, Truman Avenue.
The commissioner this morning
told a Citizen reporter that his
injury would cause about two

Harden regretted that he was
unable to be present to vote for
the 500 appropriation to the Key
West High School baseball team,

Commissioners John and Louis
Carbonell presented numerous
arguments for the Key West High

dissenting voters adams and
Dion) into granting the money by
declaring that people everywhre
in the city will say 'the city
commissioners are too tight to
donate 500 to the Key West
High School baseball team"
All the reasons for granting
the money did not move, either
Mayor Adams or Commissioner
Dion. They held to their guns.
Finally, it was suggested that
contact be made with Commits
sioner Hunter Harden to learn
/ his thought on the matter (Glen-
wood Sweeting speaking for the
High School baseball team had
previously stated that he (Sweet-
ing had contacted Harden and
that the injured commissioner
stated he would vote for the
granD.
When it seemed that there was
no use in further carrying out the
argument, commissioner John
Carbonell withdrew his motion
to grant 500 to the Key West
High School baseball team.
(Carbonell withdrew his mo-
ton because the motion needed
a full unanimous consent of all
commissioners present to be en-
acted into law, as this grant OF
$500 was not on the topics to be
discussed last night.
