This program, showed a conadderablee eipa lion with regard to variety :,and quan-
tity of output as 'compared i ith . the prewar progrsm. The following is a list
of some of the machines which were to be produced in the new programs
a. Wool-blending machines designed by Konlov
b Hartnnatype,triple-action carding machines
c. Scutchers (tre?al amaehina) conitructed After the.models: of foreign
firms se,g, s ~i orMA wool and Hopki?ns and Heady for coarse

d. Gouget and Tests-type deburriog machines
e, Special grinders
f, Woolensring spinning frames constructed after the American 'Whiting
model 1

.
4. In 1945 preparatory work"'was carried out for switching over to peacetime
production. New equipment built at'the.factork or received from other
enterprises was"installed. ' About 700, workers Were being specially trained
for the impendi} g. work. In' the 'beginning of 1946 the first 'experimental
models of the Sh-11 and 5h;-110 cards ' were 'produced,' Ot1 ir`'machinery, was
produced later in the year.. During subiequent years -production of various
kinds of machines ' continued to..' increase. During the 'postwar. live-Year Plan
