Bearing Testing Plan Simplified Testing bearings, a heretofore painstaking and terious error process, has been greatly simplified by a new method devised by Richard McKendry, 318 Edgewo avenue. an assistant foreman in the branch of Fairfield Air Service Command (FASC), Patterson Field.

His device, which requires only three minutes per test, is compli-9 cated in theory but so simple in operation that any person of average intelligence can be trained to handle it in just a few days. Morethe new apparatus carries the direct measurement of the bearings. which are used on bombsights and other aircraft equipment and must be highly accurate performance, a few steps further than old methods. McKendry's system considers each bearing as a miniature, gyroscope whose reactions testing determine accurately whether its performance is perfect enough for delicate instruments. new testing apparatus also is being used in the engineering department, where it tests used bearsuperchargers and other types of aircraft equipment.

and Top Car Prices Needed To Avert Transit Rupture Threat of disruption of the home front auto transportation system due to soaring of used car prices is given as the cause for putting ceiling prices into effect July 10, John E. Robinson, district Office of Price Administration (OPA) director, said at Cincinnati today. Robinson says both buyers and dealers are being victimized by the ever-rising prices and "war production itself is threatened by this new danger to our transportation system." No new cars are being made and used cars are being scrapped at the rate of 4,000 a day while wartime need for cars has reached new high. Speculators have been buying up cars and piling them up in highincome defense areas, depleting supplies in other areas where essential work and business must be carried on, he says. Ceiling prices, therefore, have been set on used cars for the same reason as other wartime price controls, Robinson says.
