Dr. S. A. Sochocky,
565 Central Av.,
East Orange,
N.J.
Dear Doc:-
It was not my intention to neglect your note of June 8th,
but 1 have been so tied up with work, including two days spent in Boston
last week, that I have not been able to 800 Mr. Everts and Mr. Cross
until to-day. We held a directors' meeting to pass the resolution that
you and I talked about yesterday, and while waiting for Mr. Strahan to
arrive, I had an opportunity to talk to these gentlemen.
Their feeling in the salary matter is just as I thought it would
be, namely, to cover & two months' vacation. I am bappy to say, therefore,
that this has been released.
Now, if not inconvenient to you, can I send you checks at the
regular time for two months ? As you know, money is fearfully tight and
rather than experiencing any relief in the past month, things have grown
worse, 80 that our cash condition begins to approach a predicament.
I felt sure enough that this method would not inconvenience you
to go ahead, since this is pay day, and ask Mr. Ross to make out your check
in the usual way.
A note arrived from Moriarta this morning about the 50 Mg. He
mentioned having seen you and I cannot determine clearly whether he wants
to cancel his order or not. If you feel like it and have time to drop him
8. line, will you do BO ? At least "Papa" is vacillating at the moment
and I think B. note from you would help & lot.
Bilstein came around to the Plant yesterday afternoon again and
I told him that I understood your position perfectly and that it was just
what he and I had assumed the previous day. I also told him to go to
work and do what he could in the laboratory until hearing from you. It will
be tremendously appreciated if you will act as soon as you can on the
resolution which Strahan will send you to-day or at latest to-morrow BO
that I can get Bilstein working on the revised grades.
Do not forget to call me up when you are in New York 80 that we
can go to the Village for an hour or 80 together.
Yours truly,
AR/HM
