hmmm not a lot to go on here. White made machines for decades. House is used by many. Numbers show up a lot too. White House would sound like a great Japanese 15 clone name, though I haven't seen one. Would you by chance be able to share some shrunk pictures of it? maybe look at a 15 clone thread and see if the machines there are similar.

Welcome to the board.

Welcome. You probably have a badged Japanese sewing machine sold by White House department stores. Some threads to look at to see if you can find a similar badged machine are:
Will the Real 15 clone please stand up
Vintage Japanese 'Badged' Zig Zag and Straight Sew Sewing Machines
Vintage Japanese 'Badged' sewing machine with fancy stitches
http://www.sewusa.com/Sewing_Machine...g_Machines.htm

Sometimes the machine will have a JA or JC with a number after those letters either stamped or printed on the under side of the machine. Some machines have "made in Japan" either on a badge or decal, and I have one machine that I had to take off the motor to find the decal.

A picture would help identify your machine. You generally need to reduce a picture so it will post. If you look at post #6 at Vintage Consew It has some instructions and links on how to reduce pictures and post said pictures.

For the slide plate you may want to check out http://shop.sew-classic.com/Plates-N...Plates_c14.htm and the belt can be found at http://shop.sew-classic.com/Belts_c3.htm
