June 29, 1925.
Dr. Frederick B. Flinn,
College of Physicians and Surgeons,
437 West 59th St.,
New York City.
Dear Dr. Flim:
Mr. Lee's visit to several clock companies in Connecticut
resulted in favorable action in regard to your suggestion of visiting
these plants and examining operators. Examination of course is
subject to the willingness of the operators, but I doubt if you will
have any difficulty.
Mr. Granger, superintendent of the Waterbury Clock Company,
has sent me a copy of a letter written to you June 25 so that you are in
communication with these people who are the most important having the
largest plant and the greatest record of production.
The New Haven Clock Company, Mr. Whitehead, expressed a
willingness to have you visit there at any time. I suggest that you
write him direct a few days in advance of your proposed call.
The
New Haven Clock Company is in New Haven, Connecticut.
Mr. Ed. Ingraham, of the E. Ingraham Clock Company, Bristol,
Conn., has also expressed a willingness to have you inspect the plant
there so that you can doubtless arrange to visit the three plants on the
same trip. Since the watch and clock people generally close down for
inventory the early part of July, it might be well for you to defer your
visitsmuntil about the 15th.
Unfortunately, all of the luminous material departments are
working on low schedule. At the New Haven Clock Company no work is being
done but a number of the operators are working in other departments. I
think Waterbury has seventeen or eighteen people employed, and Ingraham six
or eight, so that, all told, you should have thirty to thirty-five
inspections, eliminating possibilities of protest.
Cordially,
President.
