Stamp Controversy Moy Be Given
To Standards Bureau to Decide
.Philutelic News
By jones Waldo Fowcett

Postmaster General Arthur
e. Summerf1eld has been asked
to refer the whole controversy
over Offset versus engraved
stamps to the Bureau Of Stand
ards, official testing laboratory
Of the United States Govern
ment, for scientific judgment
Of all the production values
involved. II he agrees to this
suggestion. the bureau is pre-
pared to begin study Of the
entire problem at once. It
already has q working under
standing with both the Post
Once Department and the
Bureau Of Engraving and
Printing.
The Scent Offset Statue Of
Liberty model in red, white
and blue. prepared by the Eu-
reka Speciality Co.. Scranton.
Pa, is to be delivered to the
Post ONCE Department to-
morrow. An engraved model.
also In red. white and blue.
produced by the Bureau Of
Engraving and Printing, was
submitted on January 4.
Meanwhile, representatives
Of the philatelic public have
requested the Postmaster Cen
eral to hold a press conference
on the whole subject Of sur
face-printed versus engraved
stamps. Such q meeting. it is
argued, would bring together
all groups and individuals in

likewise would give philatelic
journalists opportunity to view
the models, obtain approved

Premature winning of the

played the trey, East winning

hold-up play correctly restricts
South to eight tricks.

A cold camera, like q colo
person, doesn't function at
peak performance. Since we
are apparently due for a cold
winter for q change. We might
as well take q look at what
can happen to q camera when
the temperature drops below
the freezing mark and see
what can be done to keep 1t
In top working order in spite
Of the cold.
Now just what can the cold
do to slow up the perform
ance of a camera? To begin
with 1t can easily slow down

other moving parts tend to
stick or move more slowly in
cold weather as lubricants be-
gin to CONCEAL.
The lens can be affected. too.
although this shows up after
the camera has been brought
into a warm house after being
subjected to low outdoor tenn
peratures. The sudden change
will cause a film of conden-
sation to form on the lens
surface.
This isn't serious unless you
have in mind taking q picture
or so Immediately after COM
ing inside. Then the moisture
coating that has formed on
the lens will blur your mega
tiVeS.
After q few minutes inside
the warm house the conden-
sation film will vanish Of its
own accord but you can hasten
the process by giving the lens
an occasional wipe with lens
tissue.
Film Becomes Brittle
But these are not the only
danger points. The film it
self feels the cold, too, and, un-
like its usual pliable self. be-
comes brittle and easy to break.
This can be prevented by
carving the camera in q coat
pocket or, in very cold weather.
inside the coat closer to the
warmth of your body. But.
if you have reason to believe
that the low temperature has
affected the film. take the pre-
caution of winding it forward
very slowly as pulling 1t too
quickly through the camera
may cause it to crack or break.
For the same reason. If you
use film packs, pull the tabs
carefully and slowly and no
harm will come to the film.
Loading a cold camera with
brittle film is far from easy,
so we suggest that you load
up at home or in some other
warm place. If the camera
must be reloaded outside be
sure to keep the extra rolls in
an inner pocket close to your
body. A pair of thin cloth
gloves will be extremely help
full when loading fiim. They
may save your fingers from a
painful cash from the edge OF
the film and will certainly pro-
tect your hands from contact
with the cold metal parts Of
the camera.
FIosh Batteries Lose Power
Flash batteries also respond
to the cozening OF Jack Frost
and rapidly lose power and
sometimes fail to respond
when cold. This is another
item that will benefit from be-
ing carried in an inside coat
pocket until you are ready to
use it. If carried outside in
the fash gun they are apt to
lose power very quickly when
temperatures go way down.
Leather is another item that
