This paper analyzes changes in the distribution of Soviet pulp, paper, and paperboard production between the years 1940 and 1965. Regional variation exists both in physical volume of production and in type of plant. Production of pulp and paper occurs primarily in integrated plants. whereas most paperboard is manufactured in non-integrated mills. but integrated manufacture of all three products has increased between 1940 and 1965. Regional location of production in the Soviet pulp and paper industry has been heavily influenced by historical events, by the Proportion of weight lost during processing of roundwood, by creation of new mills and expansion of older establishments, and by the operational characteristics of Soviet central planning.

The article presents a study concerning the "parts" of cut-paper art products in an attempt to know the influence of teacher motivation and non-motivation on its overall aesthetic quality in art education. In relation, the definition of terms, population, and the experiment's procedure are presented. The study shows that the amount of overall aesthetic quality judged in the "parts" had much influence on the overall aesthetic quality in the final art product. It suggests that all complex relationships should be carefully defined and explored to understand the relation among the creator, the creative process, and the final art product.

Explores the changing locational patterns of the pulp and paper industry in Soviet Union. Evaluation of the changes locational pattern of the industry; Range of per capita consumption of the industry; Terms of capital investments.

The increasing use of synthetic fibres by the textile industry has resulted from appreciation that in some respects they possess properties so superior to those of the natural fibres as to justify their higher cost. Considerable research is in progress, particularly in the U.S.A., into the possibilities of using man-made fibres in the production of papers. These developments are reviewed, and the properties of synthetic-fibre papers, as compared with those of conventional textile structures, are examined briefly. It is suggested that the synthetic paper fibres may eventually narrow the gap at present existing between the textile industry and the pulp and paper industries. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

A brief description of modern paper-and-board-making machinery introduces a discussion of the properties required of the fibres used and the cloth constructions necessary in paper-makers felts. The tests applied are described. The differences between the cloth constructions needed for satisfactory functioning when making coarse, medium and fine papers as well as multi-layer boards are discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article presents an abstract of the paper A Study of the Variety of Paper Sizes in the U.K., by M. N. Pherwani and S. Eilon. Case studies in the consumption of stationery paper revealed a wide variety of products and a pricing policy which does not penalize customers for ordering non-standard or odd sizes. Cost analysis by use of break-even charts is not applicable, owing to the difficulty of allocating fixed costs to the various products. The amount of scrap caused by cutting paper rolls to predetermined stationery sizes is suggested as an alternative criterion, and application of linear programming to scheduling of paper sizes is demonstrated. An overall saving to the industry of about 2 percent of produced material is estimated to be the result if scientific scheduling is adopted.

This paper discusses a method for determining the optimal characteristics for a machine which fabricates two-dimensional products. The machine is a high-speed, high-cost, continuous processing facility. The end products of this continuous operation, called intermediate inventory, are stored and then used as input for a low-speed, low-cost, job-shop operation which finishes them to customers' dimensional specifications.
The study is based on a specific problem in the paper industry but problems of the same basic type are encountered in the manufacture of special products of steel, aluminium, plastics, textiles and so forth. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
