Research Pays
Victor Comptometer Cor
poration is successfully com
peting with Japanese manu
facturers in the sale of elec
tronic calculators to the U.S.
market, according to the com
pany’s annual report.
The Chicago manufactur
er’s research center has wiped
out the Japanese cost-of-labor
advantage through the devel
opment of advanced designs
in conjunction with American
semi-conductor chip manu
facturers, enabling the units
to be priced competitively.
Of the record 8.7 million
bikes sold in the U.S. last
year, 3% million were light
weight models.
