In Finland he had several matters of business
to attend to. One was a trip to the govern-
ment oil refinery for a conference with the
engineer who operates one of our Microviscom-
eters. Another was a conference at the re-
finery main office where he presented complete
information on our instruments and their uses
in the refinery, and a third was a trip to a
paper pulp laboratory where the engineers

the new corporation will be available at $100

stockholders sometime in the near future. No
further details are available at this time.
Job Well Done! A recent inspection report from our Insurance Company's safety engineer complimented Monty Montgomery and Fred Wolff for the well engineered network of safety equipment throughout the plant. Also,our employees are to be commended for their care in preventing accidents and caring for minor injuries to avoid infections. Once again we want to mention the importance of wearing safety glasse s whenever there is possible danger to the eyes. You may be better looking without glasses, but you will be looking better through two uninjured eyes. Wear safety glasses! President's Message: I am using this means to express my sincere appreciation to the members of our staff who put forth extra effort to complete the Chicago Sales Meeting materials early so that I could use them in London. My special thanks to the duplicating staff in Engineering, the Sales Department personnel, my own staff assistants and the shipping department. /f&G- Second L<fe Saved!

The woman was on the Portable Resuscitator and then on the Syn- chronous Machine for a total of four hours be- fore normal heartbeat was restored.
