MECHANIZE FOUNDRY -- Leningradskaya Pravda, No 261, 4 Nov 49
When the Plant imeni Karl Libknekht received the order to cast stationary
tubings for the Leningrad subway, they were faced with the task of first organ-
izing a sound machine->voulding base.
They did not have a real foundry. For a long time the work was done in a
half-ton cupola and practically without mechanization.
Pneumatic tampers and pneumatic tools for trimming ingots, as well as
other inrcvptions; ere introduced. Traveling cranes were Liso put into oper-
ation.
PLEDGE ADDITIONAL HOISTS -- Vechernyaya Mosava, No 246, 15 Oct 49
The "Krasnyy blok" Plant .:As pledged above-plan output of 250 hoists of
various types by 7 November.
Moskovskiy Bol'shevik, No 261, 4 Nov 49
in 9 months the "Krasnyy blok" Plant has produced several hundred hoists
above plan which are used in all branches of industry and in MISs.
BUILD NEW AUTOMATIC WELDER -- Moskovskiy Bol'shevik, No 263, 6 Nov 49
The Central Scientific Research Institute of Technology and Machine-
Building has put out a new universal welding machine, the UT-?250. Equipped
with electrodes varying in diameter from 2.5 to 6 millimeters, the machine
can weld an 83-meter seam in one hour, greatly surpassing the productive
capacity of other machines of similar type.

The welder weighs only 44 ki.lograms, is ,ortable, and should considerably
wiu.en the application of automatic clec..ric weldin;, esy,ccialiy in the heavy
machine-building plants.

TI.' n,.atura" completed the year plan with respect to gross production
on 15 October. At the same time, it lowered .r ;duction costs by 10.9 percent
I. is improving the quality of its prouucks !::oath by north. It has rechanized
its rollers and has tripled production in the welding of boilers and radiators
by equipping the tools with rotating tables. It has also mechanized the stamping
process in the casting shop.
COMPLETES YEAR PLAN-- Vechernaya Moskva, No 257, 23 Oct 49
The Machinery Plant imeni Kirov hay completed the year plan ahead of time.
Labor productivity per worker, as a result of mechanization, has risen 7 per-
cent and production costs have fallen 22 percent.
MACHINE PL.AIIT AHEAD OF PLAN -- Trud, No 256, 29 Oct 49
The T1rasl,.l Machinery Plant imeni Kirov teas completed the year plan ahead
of time. Average labor productivity in September was 162 percent of the medium
progressive norm. Production capacity has reached the level set for 1950. As
a result of mechanization, productivity has increased 7 percent and production
cost has dropped 22 percent.
Two laboratories have been installed in the plant in order to improve
techniques. There are six stakhanovite schools among t':e shops, directed by
workers skilled in high-speed and high-quality methods.
BEGIN AUTOMATIC WELDING OF DRUI' -- Krasnyy Flot, No 253, 26 Oct 49
The drum-welding shop of the Krasnyy Kotel'shchik Plant recently began
auLu.natic welding of the drum Joints of high-pressure boilers. Whereas formerl?y
the welding of the upper drum joint of the TP-230 boiler took 77 hours, in the
course of which the drum would be sent two or three times to the gas oven, now
the welding is performed in a single operation in about 7 hours. The automatic
method reduces the production cycle sixfold and -osulte in considerable saving
of gas.
CEMENT-UNLOADING MACHINE -- Moskovskiy Bolshevik, No 249, 21 ,ct 49
The Machinery Plant of the Ginistry of Construction cf Machine Building
Enterprises has put out an experimental model of a cement-unloading machine
which mechanizes the unloading of cement from railroad cars to storage points
and thence to trucks. It has a productivity of 40 tons per hour and requires
only two men to operate it. All operations are performed by rush button.
MACHIIIERY PLANT COMPLETES 5-YEAR PLAN -- Moskovskiy Bol'shevik, No 249, 21 Oct 49
The Perovo Machinery Plant, which from year to year has fulfilled and ex-
ceeded its noes, completed the Five-Year Plan on 19 October with respect to
oduct.ion volume. It declined a state subsidy in 1947 and this year managed
.o givr the state c million rubles in capital accumulations.

All chops are engaged in a campaign to save metal, fuel, and electric power.
As a result of metal savings during the last 9 months, the plant was able to
build an additional 20 hydroelectric brake stands.
