[[margin]] 3 [[/margin]] Many questions asked. Persuaded [[underlined]] Weger [[/underlined]] to postpone his vacation one week.  They wanted 14 days to improve on Bakelizer. Gave them fits when I said could get everything together in one day.  Finally found an apparatus in laboratory which could be adapted for this purpose Will use CO2 instead of compressed air.  Had talk with [[underlined]] Segal [[/underlined]] who seems to think we will agree on contract says will send agreement tomorrow.  I made up my mind to stick to 35% claim instead of his offered 25% [[underlined]] Knoll - Lebach [[/underlined]] matter is very disturbing to my interests now and makes quite the main point of conversation.
