[[strikethrough]] 66 [[strikethrough]] 61/ [[vertical notation in left margin in red]] Brock, Nash, Morey unfit for their work. [[/left margin in red]] told them [[underlined in red]] Brock [[/underlined in red]] instead of having a leader in our paper plant has been a trailer and has shown once more that he is not a manager on the contrary a [[underlined in red]] man who has to be told what to do [[/underlined in red]] day by day. In Chicago altho' he was normally manager, the whole management was done by the man under him, who now occupies a managing position at Bound [[strikethrough]] Book [[/strikethrough]] Brook. [[underlined in red]] Redman & Weith [[/underlined in red]] suggest that we put [[underlined in red]] Brock in the Revolite [[/underlined in red]] work Told them this is absolutely out of the question, with his too high salary compared [[strikethrough]] that [[/strikethrough]] to that of the man doing the Revolite work now and doing it well. [[underlined in red]] Weith [[/underlined in red]] at my request submitted the list of work which has been performed by Nash and the practical results obtained there from. - Shall submit this list to Rossi for his comments. Redman suggests dropping Morey immediately. - I do not like the idea of putting a man suddenly on the street and leaving him helpless. - Told Redman it was his and our fault of letting Morey go on on his own way without giving him a concrete plan of work to follow, while at the same time increasing repeatedly [[end page [[start page]] [[strikethrough of page number in right corner]][?]] [[strikethrough]] 62/ [[vertical notation in left margin red underlined]] Bender [[/left margin red underlined]] his salary. After talking the matter over with Alan Brown, the latter has consented to see whether he can use him at reduced salary in his department in Bound Brook. So I shall put [[underlined in red]] Morey on half time [[/underlined in red]] and [[underlined in red]] half pay, [[/underlined in red]] under A. Brown so as to give Morey some time to find another position. Will write Morey to this effect. Spent most of the day with [[underlined in red]] Bender [[/underlined in red]] and his work on Urea + paraform + an amine X [[vertical notation in left margin]] X preferably alhylindramine [[/left margin]] condensing agent or equivalent which has given him [[strikethrough]] very [[/strikethrough]] good results and moldings of which the properties can be [[underlined in red]] compared favorably with Urea plastics [[/underlined in red]] now in the trade. - Urged him to carry on with renewed zeal and increased efforts in view of approaching arrival of Ripper Made same admonitions to [[underlined in red]] Dr. Schmidt [[/underlined in red]] who is working on [[underlined in red]] Dicyandiamid resins [[/underlined in red]] and on [[underlined in red]] Shannon [[/underlined in red]] who has been sent from Bound Brook to pick up here practical knowledge of [[underlined in red]] urea products [[/underlined in red]] so as to prepare him better for future manufacturing methods. Went also thru [[underlined in red]] Halowax [[/underlined in red]] research department: [[underlined in red]] Dr. Harmon [[/underlined in red]] away The other men busy at various problems. [[underlined in red]] Beattie [[/underlined in red]] busy trying to find new chlorination products [[underlined in red]] Sanford Brown [[/underlined in red]] who has been kicking so much about our research is now spending proportionally much more money
