- 2 - Purthermore you said that sinee you gave a froe hand to lr. Roeder, it is best that writer should go on vacation for "let's say one or two months and then when he comes back, there is a possibility that Mr. Roeder may need him". Writer stated to you over again that he is trying his ut- most to preserve his connections with the Company and serve it to the best of his ability but in view of his relations to the Company, since its origin, he feols he has the right to have you and Mr. Roeder come this very day to the following decision: 1. whother the writer fits in the new arrangement, and if 80, where, whon and under what conditions. 2. if the writer is unnecessary. The conference was closed with your answer, that it ie impossible to decide now and with further realterations of your previous advise that The writer should go on a vacation and after his return Mr. Roeder may find something for him to do." Writer received yosterday the resolution of the Board of Directors, demonstrating clearly 1. the true expression of feelings, of at least two mombers of the board, appreciated highly by the writor. 2. that at least two members of the board were not aware of your aforehand decision, actually subject for considoration of the full board, re- gardless of the fact that you do not considor the board to be of any value (your temark to the wri- ter at Orange conferenee). 3. that the resolution adopted under conditions as por above is *defacto post mortem." In viow of the writer's activities and accomplishments of Company schieved by writer's hard work, work done with all hoart and soul to the degree where he disregarded his health in the endeavor to see the Company advancing, and in viow of the circunstances and conditions precipitating present outcomo, writer considors the fact that he has been "fired by Mr. Cross" as the greatest honor for himself and the best possible stimulus and inspiration for all present and future forces of the R.L.M. With que respect Very truly yours, W. has.
