(Q) Discuss the condition and advise me as to what I should
do now in reference the Showers Bros. Co., and their
President, Guy Burnett, refusing to go on with the order
for General Electric?
(A) In the consideration of the conditions, as we would
find, it would be well that there be a thorough discussion
or understanding as to what is the cause - or the
interference with the acceptance of the order in its
PRESENT form. If there is the ability to obtain the
concessions necessary in BOTH directions (that is, from the
Showers Company as well as the General Electric), then if
there is still the incompatibility it would be well to seek
in other factories the acceptance of the order; either those
in the Western Pennsylvania or near to Bloomington.
The difference arises from certain conditions or
requirements, you see, for a certain character of decoration.
This is expensive from the one angle and the requirements
make for such that it becomes as a detriment on the other.
If these CANNOT be brought together, then make for a change.
(Q) Will Dunning permit me to go on with him during this
season?
(A) Provided there is acceptance of the order, of course,
and in time; and there is the delivery in something near to
the proper period as has been set.
(Q) If I should go west to see Burnett, when should I go?
(A) As soon as it can be made so that you can get the two
together. To see one without the other wouldn't be very
much use. Get them together!
(Q) Should I see Dunning before I go?
(A) The best is to take them together! Either get Burnett
to come east or Dunning to go west!
(Q) How will this affect me with my furniture contract with
Showers?
(A) This depends upon what is done about it! It has been
indicated to the body previously as to how and in what manner
the approach should be made for the making of contracts.
This has been GIVEN.
(Q) Should I attempt anything with Carolina Wood Products
Co. with Gen. Elec., considering the conditions.
(A) Not at the present, as we find.
(Q) Will you give the name of the factories I should go to
that will accept the business?
(A) As indicated, either those in Pennsylvania - Western
Pennsylvania, or near Bloomington. Seek these out!
(Q) Please advise me what I should do now, considering all
conditions and circumstances, to keep on my feet?
(A) As has just been indicated.
(Q) Any other suggestions for the body at this time?
(A) Get these TOGETHER! If these cannot be made compatible,
then change it!
We are through for the present.
