I am sure that you will be interested in knowing that we have already undertaken this work. For some weeks we have had a school going on for the training of screw machine operators with every success. We also have here a man who is giving detailed attention to the personnel in connection with our hardening and cyanide work. He is talking to these men individually and in small groups, thus instilling into them the fundamental principles of heat treatment, which is making a marked impress on the character of our product.
We are also having a detailed study of the operations now being done by women with the idea in mind to substitute women where possible when it becomes necessary and we have here two women studying our operations preparatory to giving instructions to women as to how to perform the operations that men are now doing.
