.7ood-'.Vork.in^ EQuioment
The wood-working equipment is carrying more and more weight in Romania’s machine-tool output. The equip¬ ment is being built in several machine-building enter¬ prises, and especially at Homan which has a great specia¬ lized unit producing about 50 types and sizes of wood¬ working machines including 13-20 ne'.v kinds, annually. Until 1970 the Homan works is to doable its output, by raising labour productivity,- scientific organization of production, and investment work under way. The Rocaaian wood-working equipment is diversified in keeping with the needs of the national economy no'w being covered 90 per cent from the domestic output. The Romanian units are building equipment from the simplest one - for mechanised log-cutting - to the complex wood¬ working plant in forest enterprises, rough conversion ana timber polishing in the most modern furniture units of tliis country. Here are some novelties of this year. The existing furniture panel polishing machines have got an addition: it is simpler but with greater efficiency. Another no¬ velty is the parquetry polishing or floor finishing machine. A 13 per cent rise in the output of equipment for forestry is envisaged for this year. The Romanian products in this branch are known in many countries. Digitized by the Internet Archive in 2018 with funding from University of Alberta Libraries

The clients are firms of GzechoslovaidLa, GDR, Italy, ^ran, Israel, Sweden and the USA. The emergence and fast development of this branch is mainly liniced to the partial commissioning of the small- power electric motor factory of Pite^ti. In a first stage it turns out annually 530,000 mono-phased and universal electric motors with powers ranging from 0.01 to 0.735 itV. In the future, the capacity of the motor department will doable. The electric motors produced in Pite^ti are intended for washing machines, refrigerators, ventilators, vacuum cleaners, floor polishing machines, hair-cutters and driers, ecc. Their features are small weight and size and excellent operation. Romanian Garments in the Foreign Mark:et The Romanian garment industry counts now over 25 large factories whose production this year is twofold that of I960. Consequently, 22.7 per cent more garment uhan last year -will be exported in 1968, while in terms of value the rise is of 5*5 times over the I960 level. The Bucharest ’'Romanoexport" company is supplying garments to more than 40 countries vihsoe their quality and smartness enjoy success. Among the main importers of Roma¬ nian garments are firms in the USSR, GFR, Great Britain, Austria, Prance, Libya, etc. 3^m '^‘' rVafi'^ v2U0' *i . ’■ T ;^~Ii$ais 3P-ioo4ecjbflMB:Q(> p5'i;i;xj».f^ ed'l-olf^^jJhJk '■' f ,. ^xOp^mrt^'utfl e 0l .i#5yc^t mixo'f^V., tedo^ftXictc^v tijaoi ferssJbiai.,. ,-. ,„-fli4i‘aa3,3ReflX^;‘ J ,'■*, t4^'' dtidXXc-r/ic^' .^Q _|si^ 'to® •■ *"' / ,: { ''jf^ ' r'.v...jp® /, ' ',''1 |;vV* ■ ^ , ..ly.';-■; I " tlpJoifj ta' ^»'^^eM^DolibuiK>z.q''bioi«\zi'^^ ,^oa#a »Twc- iol9’4A^’^?..5®;:,iCljifl^f.oa^;.,;6>?/^- .'i— ,r. prjr- -:^-.-->?f''5’5'i^<^'; **4,-1?'

Complex problems of a broad scientific interest for the diagnosis and treat- meet of various diseases, and new points of view accruing from various researches undertaken by specialists for new means of health protection will be discussed on these oc¬ casions. At more than 100 symposia and meetings - in the light of the actuality of immunology, cardiovascular pathology clinic aspects of phthisiopneumology, surgical emergency, etc. - generalized treatments and investigation methods and cure thought out by Romanian specialists will be presented. During 1968 Romanian physicians will participate in many international congresses and conferences, as well as in meetings of international specialist organizations, and will make known the results of their own researches on prophylaxy and treatment. Ampelograph Disc The ampelograph disc conceived by lecturer dr. G. Baltatu of Jassy is a new device helping to easily deter¬ mine, describe, compare and systematize numerous vine strains. The handling of small levers produces on perfora¬ ted cards the classification, form, colour and other fea¬ tures of the studied vine. The device can also be used in other disciplines of agriculture, in medicine and technical sciences.
