The cutting up of scrap metal to a more convenient size for charging to the melting furnaces is one of the main tasks of the modern crocodile shear, Recently, a new heavy version of this machine (See Above) was produced by Joshua Bigwood and Son Ltd, Wolverhampton, Staffordshire, England.

This new machine has a capacity up to 30 inches x 4 inch plate, 24 inches round or 7 x 3 inches rolled steel joists. It is fitted with a fixed blade which has shallow notches for cutting round bars without danger of slipping, and the work material is prevented from tilting by an adjustable hold-down fixed to the main frame,

A forged stee) crankshaft drives the top beam through a pitman at speed producing 25 strokes a minute, while shear pin protection is provided by connecting the pitman small end, via a gudgeon pln and knuckle-type thrust bearing, to a block in a machined slide in the top beam.

Under normal working conditions, this block is fixed to the beam, but if overloading occurs, the shear pin fractures and the block works idly to and fro in its slide in the beam.

Continuous WEST GERMAN Lead Extrusion SYNOD MEETS

Machine t

Continuous load extru-" sion machines, patented' and manufactured by the GEC, for sheathing cables, have been installed in many parts of the world.

During the past year plone, they have been exported to Den- mark, Belgium, France, Switzer- lond, Austria and Germany, Canado, Mexico and Japan..

Most of these installations | have been revisited by the com.. pany's enginners who report that the machines are giving trouble-free survice.

The accompanying Illustration shows one of the latest machines erected in Japan for the Nippon Cable & Wire Company (Kanasake). This <V33 tho seventh company to take deli- very in Japan, where a total of nino machines has been pur~ chased in all.

Cable factories, In Japan are generally well equipped" for the manufacture of a wide congo of cables. Modern methods and principles are the subject of carotul study, whilst research, carried out at local laboratories, universities and colleges is of a very high order.

Most areas near the factories where war damage was suffered are being rehabilitated by the erection of large Western type buildings together with a number of traditional houses of wooden atructure.

The installation

of machines

in Japan has proved compara- tively straightforward, and there Is a rapid understanding of the requirements for their opera- tion and maintenance.

The Synod meeting is to dis- cuss and ratify the treaty con- cluded between the church and the West German Government last month.

Bishop Dibelius said today he would be "only too glad" to conclude a similar treaty with the East German Prime Minis- ber, Here Otto Grotewohl, and added:
