HOT WEATHER RULES
OF ELECTRIC MOTORS
During hot weather, farm and
home electric motors are apt to:
get extra heavy use. About half .
the damage which may result
can be prevented by a few simple
precautions, experts estimate.
However, one needn’t be an expert to avoid expensive repairs.
Most important rule is not to
use too much oil or grease. This
is the most frequent sources of
trouble we’ve seen in the past
three years. Follow makers’ directions carefully. If “two or
three drops” are called for, don’t
use more.
See that motors have proper
overload protection. This can be
provided by an inexpensive fusetron, or circuit breaker. People
sometimes make the mistake of
using ordinary household fuses.
Don’t do it. This can result in the
motor overheating, burning out
coils, or even starting a fire.
Don’t let a motor get wet.
Don’t operate when wet. Dry it
first by baking in an even at 212
degrees fahrenheit.
Be sure that belts are in alignment, and are neither too loose
nor too tight. Make sure it is operating on a firm foundation.
Vibration may cause parts to
crystallize.
Users are _ also. cautioned
against ‘tinkering with electric
motors without a complete understanding of their construction.
An expert motor repairman
should be seen when the motor
fails to function properly.

Lesson from Britain
Hard times and doing without—
that’s still the order of life in Britain.
“Austerity’’ is the official name for
it. True, a little sacrificing is not
harmful to anyone. But as a political
system or way of life, British ‘‘austerity’’ is going to continue looking
a bit drab (as a cloak for socialism),
when you compare it with the private
management and freedom of enter.
prise we know in America. Britain,
in effect, is telling America what
not to do.
But at the moment, the British
experience is helping underscore an
economic fact that needs more underscoring here in America. That
fact is this: increases in wages mean
higher prices. Economists in our
country have known for a long time
that this is true, yet the popular view
of it insists that the boss can go on
indefinitely granting increases, year
after year, without ever raising
prices at all. The British know better.
It seems that Sir Stafford Cripps,
who is in charge of money matters
in England, is right now urging British workers (even they who own industry and run the government) to
work harder without higher wages.
If the Britishers do this, the reason!
ing goes, there will be more to ex.port to America. Then, Britain will
have more dollars with which to buy _
the things her people need. Shrewd
enough!
Another Round?
You see, the British are driving to
get into as much of the American
market as possible. Sir Stafford recognizes that if British workers should
demand increases in wages, prices
of British goods would make it impossible to compete successfully on
the American market. In _ other
words, the British (even the labor
government) know that increases in
wages do mean higher prices.
Is Sir Stafford counting on prices
going up in America? Well, at least
he is laying plans to compete with
American manufacturers—and another round of wage increases over
here would do much to help him,
according to his own formula. Yes,
indeed: Another round of wage boosts .
.would send up prices so high that:
Sir Stafford would have little trouble in getting rid of everything
Britain sells, from pottery to Austin
Foreign trade is good for our na.
tion. just like it is good for the British. It’s a two way street. If we fail .
, to get into the competition ourselves,
. then our goods will stop moving as .
. fast as we know our production lines .
; can move them.
. This lesson Britain is teaching us .
. works at home, too. The one thing
we want to do is to keep production
; going, for we knew that our people
. want jobs and have the capacity to .
, consume. But if we are going to kezp >
forcing prices upward, we may one .
. day realize that depression is here
. just because we have done that very
. thing. We can have nothing but false
i prosperity that foretells depression,
. if we force prices too high.
