H. Compactness of plant layout without crowding with resultantinaccessibility of equipment for operation, inspection and repair is ahard problem to solve. The evident advantage of its successful solu-tion lies of course in reduced rent, smaller distances to walk throughfor operators, and further advantages for extensions. Otherwise,however, this factor has little bearing on operating economy andmethods save for the reduced expense of cleaning, lighting, heating,and the like. I. The importance of safety arrangements and devices is so wellrecognized that it is hardly worth-wrhile to enlarge upon the subje
