NEW BRITAIN DAILY THE HERALD INVITES ITS FRIENDS TO SEE NEW PRESS Big Goss Machine, Capable of Printing 36 Page Paper, Starts Day’s Run About 3:15 P. M. The Herald, beliéving in the best for its readers and advertisers, has recently added to the equipment of the plant which publishes its daily editions a Goss 36 page press, which is now printing the newspapers ap- ‘pearing on the street. The press is an admirable exposition of what can be dona with modern héavy machin- ery, running at high speed, and is most complete in its facilitiea for publishing papers of from four to 36 pages. Any person interested in witnessing the “run” will be welcome in the press room of the Herald when the press is in operation. The best time for watching the big gears and cylinders carry miles of newsprint from roller to folder is about 3:15 p. m Description of Machine, The big machine as it now stands in the Herald building is nearly 12 feet high, 19 feet long and about 6 feet wide. It weighs about 35 tona and is built upon a special founda- tion 12 feet high, about 5 1-2 of which is underground, of reinforced concrete. The foundation rests upon a bed of Mrge rocks and gravel un- der the level of the cellar of tha building. Two motors, one of 30 horsepower and one of 5, drive it at 4 maximum speed of 24,000 twelve page papers per hour. The motors are hooked up with the press by a series of control buttons which al- low the press to be barely turned over, an inch at a time, to be run at speed, or stopped almost instan- taneously. . “Fourdecker” Press. The machine is known as a “four- decker” with a three plate wide bot- tom deck, two plates being the width of the three upper decks. Each deck is capable of turning out an 8 page paper independent of the others, with the exception of the bottom deck, which turns out 12, if so arranged. Usually, however, three decks are used for a 12 page run. This requires 24 plates, 12 duplicates, and tha press teeds forth two complete papers per Let Fatima smokers tell you Ask them at the Track Meets Among college and club men, revolution. At the rear of the press is accommodaRions for 8 rolls 6f pa- per, weighing about 4,800 pounds, ona roll feeding through each deck and one in reserve ready to be spliced and ryn through. ‘Thence the paper is fed through the cylinders until it comes out, cut and folded as you re- ceive it in your homes or on the street. It was 18 months from the time the order was put in for the press until it was received here and it took over a month to erect it and put it in running shape. Figures on the number of parts in the machine are. not obtainable; there are many thousands, however. A Time Saver. Theé installation of the press gives the -Herald the advantage of speed in getting “on the street,” and it saves a considerable amount of pa- per during the course of the year through giving us certain combina- tions of pages that we could not ob- tain before. It obviously takes more paper to run 7,500 sixteen pages than as many 14 pages. We could not obtain a product of 14 pages on our old press. At the present time wa can. The old press would not give us over 16 pages on one run, now wa can get 36. which should take care of the demands of our adver- tisers and readers for many years to come. We are building upon the fu- ture of New Britain but no more so than the merchants and the individ- uals who invest in property in the city. % Better Service. We shall be able, through the flexibility of the press, to give our readers more news than we might have done with the former equip- ment. Many times the demand for advertising was greater than we were able to supply. When such a con- ditiop existed we were torn between the desire to furnish our readers with as much news as possible and sell the space to a regular. cystomer who felt that he had the Tight to demand that his ad be carried. If we benefited one we slighted thp other. Even though the advertiser furnished the direct income the reader furnished the “good will” and, if his interésts were denfed the paper might lose some of the prestige that it has had. Therefore the advertiser was often turned down. Now we can take care of the advertiser, up to the limits of our composing room, and also the reader by adding two pages to the HERALD, TUESDAY, A run. Previously we weére limitéd in the number of pages possible. ENGLAND DROPS PLAN Will Noa Secks Pré-Oonference Par- leys on Pacific Problems, as Was Originally Suggested. London, Aug. 2.—(By Associated Press.)—Great Britain has dropped tie proposal to hold a preliminary conference on Pacifig questions and has g3greed to participate in the Washington conference as otiginally suggested by President Harding, ae- sording to official circles here today. The décision was reached after an exchange of comversations between London and Washington. Great Britain has also agreed to the original date suggested, November 11, the anniversary of armistice day, if President Harding still considers that the most suitable time and will enter *he conference without any reserva- tons as to the set program, it was stated. Doubt is expressed whether Pre- mier Hughes of Australia and Pre- mier Massey of New Zealand will be able to attend, but they will, it is said, Dbe represented by -a British deputa- tion. .‘The attendance of Premier Lilovd 3eorge also depends upon circum- slances, it was stated.
