New Quarters For
Rehoboth Utility
continued from page one)

A unique installation is the heat
pump which will heat the building
in winter and cool it in summer.
The heat pump installation is part
of the company'S program to gather
operating costs and other perform
ance data The information ac-
quired will be available to custo-
mers who are considering heat
pumps for their homes and offices.
At Ocean City, Maryland, the
company has one heat pump install
lation which has been in opera
tion for more than year. 1t func-
tions by extracting heat from well
water during cold weather.
The heat pump at Rehoboth
Beach works on an air-;0-air basis.
1t uses no fuel other than electri-
city; it operates without flame so
that no flue nor chimney is neces-
sary. There is no fuel storage, ash
disposal or SCOT connected with its
operation. The machine is a COM
pletely automatic electric unit, as
sembled in one cabinet.
The heat pump is actually a ma
chine for pumping heat from one
location to another. In cool Wea-
ther, it extracts heat from the at
mosphere and pumps i. into the
building. Though the temperature
of the air is low during the winter,
the heat pump refrigerants, by fur
ther reducing this temperature,
can extract heat from it. The COM
pressor boosts this heat to usable
values for winter heating. When
the temperature drops below 25 de-
grees, supplemental heat panels,
operated electrically and built into
the heat pump, are brought into
action.
The operation is reversed in
warm weather. Heat is removed
from the interior of the building
and pumped to the outside atmos-
phere. A window air conditioner
typifies the action of the heat pump
in this cycle.
FluOrescent lighting is used
throughout to provide a working
atmosphere free from glare and
shadows. Light on work surfaces,
designed to relieve eye strain and
tension, measures so foot candles.
Hot water is supplied by an elec-
trio water heater.
James ID. Farlow was general
contractor for the building. Engin-
eering Associates installed the heat
pump, and Banks Hardware of
Frankford did the plumbing and
electrical work.

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y. (AP)
The worlds women, under the
banner equal work, equal pay,
are making steady progress in the
long battle tor wage equality with
men.
A report by the International
Labor Organization ILO), prepar-
ed annually to provide information
on the results of efforts by u. n.
members to eliminate wage dis
elimination against women, shows
wage discrimination against women
still exists but is being slowly re-
duced.
In the United States, congress
sional hearings are expected this
year on some of the many federal
equal pay bills introduced by wo-
men lawmakers.
On the state level, the State Fed
eratiOns of Business and Profess
sional Women's Clubs are playing
big role. In Wisconsin and Ohio
equal pay bills have been intro
duced by federation members.
In New York and Pennsylvania
the state federations have been
working to revise existing equal
pay legislation to enforce the ex-
tension Of coverage to all en-
ployes.
California passed a strengthen
ing amendment to equal pay legis-
lation last year and Nebraska
adopted a resolution favoring it.
In Florida, Indiana, Iowa, Min
nesota, Ohio, Utah and Wisconsin,
equal pay bills were introduced
In Illinois, New Jersey, New York
and Pennsylvania, amendments
were introduced with view to inn
proving existing legislation on
equal pay.
