but we could take care Of
them without delay"
It was from Henry ]. Holtz-
claw. associate director Of the
Bureau Of Engraving and
Printing. that Mr.. Dunham
first heard Of the Govern
ment's decision to explore"
the possibilities Of Offset print
ing for stamps. The transac-
tion already under way is being
handled for the Eureka COM
.pany by Charles F. Brooks.
Founded in 1905, the corpora
ton now headed by Mr.. Dun
ham was created by F. F. Hen
dricksen, now chairman of the
board.
Production costs at the
Scranton plant have not yet
been figured. The Bureau of
Engraving and Printing cur
rently charges the Post Office
Department only IL cents per
1000 for the small-sized en-
graved stamps such as the
pilot" Scent stamp will be.
A years supply-9 billion
OF the ordinary Scent
stamp Of the presidential
series would add UP to
$1.080.000. The Eureka COM
pany presumably would be
obliged to underbid that figure.

printed in New England during
World War II. but the prece-

would be doubly difficult to
solve because the cylinders for
the Eureka machines would
have to be made in New York,
and two details of Secret
Service men therefore would
bep needed to guard both
aspects of the job.
Under the law the Bureau of
Engraving and Printing must
not charge for its work any
higher price than private in
dustry charges. And the price
charged by the Eureka plant or
any other production center
must be determined compete

cannot receive the "big" con-
tract unless it underbids its
rivals.

Snow Landscapes Are Best Filmed
Just After Last Flakes Have Fallen

a slow setting so that the fall
ing flakes will cause a blur as
they pass the lens.
Once you get out in the
snow-covered world you won't
have to give much thought to
looking about for subject mat
ter because even the scenes
and objects that you have long
since tired of photographing
will have a new and different
appeal that will make them
once again entrancing subjects
for your camera. Snow so
transforms any object that it
will be worth photographing
just for that reason alone.
Your own neighborhood can
keep you busy swapping away
for hours. The city streets,
snarled traffic. parks and the
nearby countryside are just a
few of the many subjects that
will make excellent scenes for
your camera after a snowfall.
Children Keep Things Coy
Snap pictures Of the chill
dren as they sled, throw snow
balls and have a generally
good time of it. Your own
children-or any children. for
that matter-building a snow
man or winging the postman
with a fat SNOWFALL. or taking
part in any snowtime activity.
can keep your camera busy for
hours on end.
But, as we wrote in 1949
when we were last discussing
this topic: do your snow
picture taking right away
then make the effort to get
down to the Office. If you make
the mistake Of fighting the
snow first we know you'll never
want to see the nasty stuff
again-much less take pictures
of it,"
Evening star., 1954-01-10
Camera Angles

To some people snow Is a
virtually unendurable hard
ship, but to the photographer
it is usually welcomed as di-
version from the run-of-the-
mill pictures he has taken
without its benefit during the
warmer months Of the year.
And for those who do like to
get out in the snow, camera in
hand. we are going to discuss
the fine points of snow pho
Biography.
First of all: dress for the oc-
casion. No one can have much
fun taking pictures of the snow
if the stuff is seeping into an
unprotected shoe or bothering
him in some similar manner,
So get into some warm cloth
ing. galoShes and scarf to
make sure you will be COM
Portable enough to concentrate
on your photography.
A pair Of light gloves will
protect the hands and still
allow you to work the knobs
and levers of your camera.
And give your camera a fair
shake. too. If it is still snow
ing when you go outside, keep
the camera protected in its car
rying case. A sunshade for
the lens is another must. It
will keep many snow particles
from reaching the lens and it
will help cut down on glare in
any event.
Time for Best Appeal
Now. how about the best
time to take snow pictures?
We recommend that you COM
mence with your snapshots
just after the snow has ceased
to fall. At this time it is at
its peak Of pictorial appeal
with millions of tiny crystals
hanging in featherlike suspen-
sion from each limb. twig or
other surface. Within a few
minutes Of the time that the
sun hits the snow it will COM
mence to lose this ethereal

The debate over Offset
stamps has not decreased in
either volume or intensity dur
ing the past week. Not even
the disturbance caused by the
theft Of 5000 $40 Federal Re-
serve banknotes from the Bu-
reau Of Engraving and Print
ing could defect the attention
of the Nations philatelistS.
from the threat to their hobby
implicit In the proposal to
abandon engraving. Indeed.
the Lands incident has had
the effect Of promoting addi-
tional excitement. Many col
lectors have associated the
robbery with the atmosphere
Of tension which has prevailed
IN the bureau since it was
announced that Government
saving bonds would be sur
face-printed beginning Janu-
ary l.
Disclosure by The Star that
an Scent Offset stamp in red,
white and blue is being pre-
pared by the Eureka Speciality
Co. at Scranton, Pa. led to
the further discovery that a
contract for a years supply of
Scent stamps in gravure may
be awarded to the same con-
Germ. This would mean that
Q billion adheSives Of the
com m onest denomination
would be placed in circulation
In surface-printed rivalry to
engraved labels already manu-
factured by the Bureau Of
Engraving and Printing.
The Eureka's Scent stamp
Is expected to be ready for
submission to Postmaster Cen
eral Arthur E. Summerf1eld on
or about January 18, possibly
earlier. An engraved model
In one color-probably green
already has been submitted by
the Bureau of Engraving and
Printing. The Postmaster
General or an officer stipulated
by him must decide between
the two.
James H. Dunham, jr., pres
ident of the Eureka company.
told The Star last Thursday:
1--WE naturally are deeply inter-
ested in the opportunity af-
forded us for showing what we
can do. For some years we have
felt that foreign producers have
been doing wonderful work,
and We have wished that we
might have a chance to COM
pete with them in manufac-
turing stamps. Our business
is stamps. We, make them by
1etterpress. lithography and
gravure-tax stamps for sew
eral States, trading stamps,
advertising stamps and so
forth. Each year we produce
between two and three billion
Christmas seals for the cam
paign against tuberculosis.
Until recently we made the
annual Crippled Children's
Easter seals, and we have,
produced the Boys Town seals.
I believe we have more stamp
manufacturing machinery than
any other private organization
in existence In this country.
We have about 500 employees

sideration. We know surface
printed stamps are easily coun-
terfeited. Although Great
Britain uses surface-printing
for the low values, she uses the
engraved process for stamps
above the shilling value. If
countries of Central America
and South America can afford
engraved stamps, surely our
own Government can. Let us
have fewer stamps If necessary.
but do not cheaper the quail
ity." i.
"As a collector and dealer
for the past SO years." writes
Charles Kohen of the Hobby
Shop in Georgetown, II am
very much opposed to this
drastic change from beautiful
engraved stamps, and / believe
that most stamp collectors feel
the same aS.I do about this"
