Mr. Viedt.
ORGANIZATION.
While the general conclusions of the Life Extension
Institute are just as I anticipated, it is very gratifying to have
your letter of the 12th and copies of bulletin and Life Extension
Institute letter of the 11th.
As you say in the bulletin, Dr. Drinker's work will
require several weeks. In the meantime, however, your operators
ought to be fully convinced that there is no injurious element in zinc.
It seems to me, therefore, that you ought to successfully
build up the Application Department in a reasonable time. Work is coming
in stronger right along and there are indications that fairly substantial
quantities of water paste application as well as Rosemary application jobs
are to be expected in increasing Quantities. A letter just received from
Illinois Watch Case Company shows that they are going into the luminous
wrist watch business extensively. You have the first 200 dials at the Plant
now. As soon as these are finished, we will receive 300 more.
I am writing this because of the importance of building the
Application Plant organization and think that you should have no unreasonable
trouble now.
Yours truly,
- A. Roeder -
