Gentlemen: a I submit the following as report of the operations of your Company for the year ending September 30, 1911. Notwithstanding the general depression in the printing in dustry of the United States, due to the disturbance and un certainty existing in other industrial fields, the business of the Linotype Company has been large and satisfactory. As will be seen on reference to the accompanying report of the Treasurer, the net gain for the year was $2,733,269.51. The use of the Linotype is being extended to the most remote parts of the world, in large offices and small, and to all classes of composition, simple and complex, in many languages. It is used in the production of nearly all daily newspapers of America, the leading dailies of most foreign countries, and a. great number of weeklies. is It also used in the production of periodicals in great numbers, and of books of the highest class, including mathe matical works, dictionaries, and encyclopedias containing intri cate arrangements of matter and combinations of various type: faces. Through recent improvements it has become available also for the composition of newspaper headings and advertising mat ter demanding type faces of sizes heretofore considered impos sible, and the mixture of faces differing greatly in size and style. The American Linotype shops have produced about l6,000 machines, which are distributed throughout the world. To these must be added about 10,000 machines from the English, German, and Canadian shops. The reliability and desirability of the Linotype is shown by the fact that there are still in operation, and in good condition, many machines which have run day and night in newspaper offices for nearly twenty years. This is due in part to the policy of the Company, which supplies at moderate prices all those minor parts liable in the course of time to be affected by wear. As a matter of fact the ordinaray cost of maintenance is so small as to be almost negligible. From the beginning the improvements and attachments, de veloped from year to year, have, as far as possible, been designed for application to earlier machines, and sold at fair prices, thus enabling the machine users to modernize their plants. More than twenty languages are composed in more than five hundred faces, and in order that this may be done more than one hundred million brass letter matrices, for use in the machine, are carried in stock. The Linotype machine has revolutionized the printing in dustry of the world. It has led to an enormous increase in the volume of printing, cheapened the cost, increased the profits, shortened the hours of labor, and increased the pay of the com positors. It has been in every way beneficial to the employer and employee, and because of the growth of business, due largely to the machine, there are more compositors employed than at the time of the machine’s introduction. Continuing the practice of past years, experimental work has been carried on continuously, and during the year three new forms of machine have been placed on the market. Two of them mark a great advance in the art. One, designed more particularly for newspaper work, carries a series of magazines, each containing matrices for two faces, so arranged that change from one style of type to another may be effected by the operator in a moment, thus avoiding the loss of time and labor involved in making a like change in earlier ma chines. This machine, already in extensive use, is meeting with universal approval, and promises to become the standard machine in newspaper and many other oflices. The second machine carries a still larger series of maga zines, and is so constructed that the operator may instantly cause the production of any one of many faces, which may differ widely in size and design; and may also compose different faces in one line. This machine is the highest development in the art, and is adapted for many important classes of work impossible on any other machine, and heretofore done solely by hand. The third machine, of simple design, is intended to meet the needs of the small offices, and offices in which price is the chief consideration. Although serviceable and reliable it is offered at a much smaller price than any other high class machine. The indications are that it will find an extended sale and meet the needs of a very large number of printers who now confine them selves to hand composition. The foreign interests of the Company are in satisfactory con dition .and are being steadily advanced and strengthened. The British company, “Linotype and Machinery, Limited,” having its office in London and works at Broadheath, near Man chester, constructs Linotype machines, printing presses and other printing machinery. During the year the works have been en larged and additional machinery provided. This Company has also placed on the market improved Linotypes with multiple magazines, and new classes of presses. While the volume of businessand the earnings were increased, the expenditures and the indebtedness are such that no cash dividend is anticipated in the near future. The debenture indebtedness of this Company is not a charge against the American Company. The German company, the “Mergenthaler Setzmaschinen Fabrik” of Berlin is in most satisfactory condition. During the year it has also placed a new and important form of machine on the market. In all ways its management has been rigorous, ef ficient, and such as to safeguard the future. Its business has in creased both in volume and in net earnings. In Canada the sale of machines in satisfactory numbers con tinues although there was great interruption because of the reci procity issue and promised free trade. Manufacturing operations in the Montreal shop have been greatly reduced because the territory will not, at present, justify the large expenditure for the special tools and machinery needed for their production. In the Brooklyn factory numerous changes and improve ments have been made, looking to increased efficiency. In order to carry on this work and give increased security it will probably be advisable to replace certain of the existing buildings by fire proof structures during the coming year. Although labor and material have steadily advanced in cost for some years, Linotype machines of the same class are sold at the prices prevailing nearly twenty years ago. In the meantime the Company has reduced the daily hours of labor in the Brooklyn works from ten to eight, has increased wages, and has contributed liberally for the benefit of sick workmen and to the families of deceased workmen. The maintenance of earnings under the above conditions has been possible only by persistent effort, the adoption of modern’ methods and tools, and by capable superintendence.

  • Ophir Farm History R5
    Ophir Farm and Manhattanville College Dear Visitor: Dating back to the 17th century, the story of Ophir Farm combines just the right mix of historical truth and local legend, and serves as a worthy heritage for Manhattanville College, now on the same site. This booklet provides a glimpse into the history, landscaping and architecture of both and is designed to supplement your walking tour with a chronological background that will make the buildings and scenery come alive. The Ophir Farm estate was once one of the nation’s most prominent model farms, an art form and hobby pursued by affluent farmers in the 1800's. Today, it includes a rich sampling from artisans who have worked on New York City’s Central Park, the White House, the Capitol, the campuses of Harvard and Columbia, St. Patrick's Cathedral and Lincoln Center. Our guide has been created, in part, to celebrate and preserve these treasures. Gayl Braisted compiled many of the sources in this history for her Masters thesis at Manhattanville. She was extremely generous with her time and allowed portions of her thesis to be printed herein. For more information about how you can help preserve Ophir Farm, please write to me at Manhattanville College, 2900 Purchase Street, Purchase, NY 10577 or call 914-323-5288.

Schwartz Chapter URL: http://www.nber.org/chapters/c13538 Chapter pages in book: (p. 27 – 55) 2 Exchange Market Policy in the United States Precedents and Antecedents 2.1 Introduction Exchange market operations had considerable precedent in policies fol- lowed in Europe during the classical gold standard era from 1870– 1913 and in the gold exchange standard between 1925– 1933. It also had antecedents in US history going back at least to the Wrst decade of the nineteenth century. Under the classical gold standard, the trilemma as outlined in chapter 1 was solved (at least in theory) with perfectly Wxed exchange rates, open capital markets, and no role for monetary policy. However in practice, in the classical era from 1870 to 1913, the assumptions needed to make this work did not hold completely. The classical Humean adjustment mechanism did not work perfectly because wages and prices were not perfectly Xexible, labor was not perfectly mobile, and there were real and Wnancial frictions and shocks.

He attended the Christian Brothers School in Marino, and later worked in the family business, a grocers and licensed premises. His first brush with politics came in 1905 when, with his brother Phil and uncle P.J., he attended the first Sinn Féin convention in 1905. Serving as a Sinn Féin councillor on Dublin Corporation from 1909 until 1922, he joined the Irish Volunteers in 1913, although he never joined the Irish Republican Brotherhood. During the Easter 1916 Rising, Cosgrave served under Eamonn Ceannt at the South Dublin Union. His was not a minor role, and after the Rising he was sentenced to death. This was later commuted to penal servitude for life, and he was transported to Frongoch in Wales along with many other rebels. As public opinion began to favour the rebels, Cosgrave stood for election in the 1917 Kilkenny city by-election, and won despite being imprisoned. This was followed by another win the following year in Kilkenny North. Cosgrave took his seat in the First Dáil on his release from prison in 1919.

D., 1603-1673 of Monybroch, Ancrum, and Stranrear, Scotland, The Parish of Killinchy, County Down, Ireland, and of his Descendants in America LIVINGSTON OF CALLENDAR The earlier Scottish peerage writers state that a Livingus or Leving, a noble Hungarian, came to Scotland in the train of the Princess Mar­ garet when she and her brother, Edgar the Atheling, took refuge at Court of Malcolm Canmorc, whom Margaret married circa 1o68, and though quoted by others for many years, is clearly a tradition, as a com­ pari.on of dates clearly indicates. Later authorities claim him to have been undoubtedly of Saxon origin and cite the rivers Leven in Cumber­ land and in Yorkshire with manorial estates of Levington, and that these manors drew this name from being situated on these rivers, and were owned by Saxons circa 851.
