A Proposed Guide For Secretaries For Use In Maintaining The Financial Records Of A School Lunch Program, Lavern Elmer Carpenter

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

One of the greatest advances in reoent years in the area of student health, in both the elementary and secondary schools of our nation. has been the development of the school lunch program. The impetus for this program in the United States came during the year 1933 when the Federal Emergency Relief Administration authorized relief funds for the feeding of school children. At that time many schools throughout the country began serving a hot dish--sometimes a bowl of soup to be eaten with the student's home-packed lunch. By 1934 there were approximately 300,000 school children being served at school.

Anderson School of Management Theses & Dissertations

From an annual value of $15,000 in 1831 to about $1,750,000 in 1846, this overland trade eventually developed its own historical heritage and became known as the “Santa Fe Trade.” Since under the new administration merchants were permitted to bring their merchandise from the east, the effort involved in supporting this tremendous supply system became significant in itself, employing over 5,000 men, 1,500 wagons, and more than 17,200 horses, mules, and …

A Study Of A Production Control System In A Job Order Die Casting Plant, Robert Gordon Woodnorth May 1958

A Study Of A Production Control System In A Job Order Die Casting Plant, Robert Gordon Woodnorth

Theses

This thesis examines the production planning and control system in a job-order die casting plant. After comparing to the criteria for an ideal system the following changes were recommended.

1. Central work storage and dispatching. This would reduce work in process and workload fluctuations through closer planning. It would also provide a perpetual inventory system and a central control point which would be constantly informed of production progress.

2. Operator trucking. By having operators do their own trucking material handling costs and production delays would be reduced.

3. Simplified job cost accounting. The use of standard costs for finishing and …
