TYPEWRITER SHOP The Typewriter Shop repair typewriters, adding machines, calculators, ditto machines, and copying machines of various types. The first step taken when a machine comes in to be re- paired is to clean it in the cleaning tank. When the machine is completely cleaned and lubri- cated, a qualified technician carefully adjusts the machine and gets it working properly. There are four men in the shop. Two menwork on all of the typewriters, be it manual or electric, and the other two work on the calculators, adding machines, ditto machines and copying maChiHeS- Sometimes long hours are spent working on machines that have to be repaired on shO1 C notice because of the customer ship's short availability. A modern ship cannot function with- out proper labor saving device machines. The shop does its best to see that such machines work properly. '
