C. Gonzalez I acknowledge receipt of your letter of June 3 telephone conversation, on the matter of returning empty in connection with racing I regret to note that it ia Edgar, Mr. Taylor, and yourself, that it ia preferable t returned to the plant. I would like to p rasent the fol which I believe I mentioned to you by phone, in view of reviewing the situation with our recommendations that yo any new agrments or present contracts, a clause which to return these cans. We feel firmly eonvincadAhst ou the return of cans is justified and in line with our pol major portion of our can business, x\ , '\ ' \ \ (1) It is our experience that cans return! to the one involved in handling them enrout, and to our own pe posing of them. The cans con in/herewith loose caps, on the outside, and emanating a distinct odor of-tetraet wore made to rectify this by thoroughly'clanisg the can think the hasards in any such-procedure wbuid offset^an conditions. W have no definite guarantee'' as to how th what other materials, inasmuch as in some eases they wou either express or 1,0.L. being plkoed in railroad cars a Furthermore, we have no guarantse-tMt they will be free or toxic properties.

This is only about 10$ of the tot we have a definite policy which was originated by Dr. Ke neither th can nor the container should be used for an lu and that it should be destroyed immediately after use, p structions to this effect are lithographed on each can reason why we should deviate from a policy, which at le disclosed any serious defect, (4) In accordance with your advise to me it was fe Brothers and Louis Meyer to return cans would have a ben this would necessitate their policing of oeapty containe agents be delegated with the responsibility of polic cans, we see so reason to require the, to return the agents are responsible onough to be delegated permis used in connection with racing, then, they should al so that the cans are properly destroyed in accordan policy on the disposition of empty containers# If for this, then rather than to remedy the trouble va appointing new agents. (5) It so happened that after you discuss made a visit to the plant and I explained to him our that he fully agreed with, our own views on the situa certainly his opinion should be given quite a defini tion of this matter* id) In view of our responsibility to protect al and unnecessary hazards, we do not prefer to be plac to receive and handle these returned cans. It would be appreciated, therefore, if you situation and let us have your comments* I am aura of all the angles to the matter, that you will concu A;I : n e oooo,ao7
