Paoli larch 29, 1963 General Gales ?!r. 1. Powers C. Aboey - sad CCi Mr. R. Smith -- Re Request for 235"Vide 3oard at Acme Aa I aslced you over the telephone the other day, I wish you would get out the file and review the entire matter. Johns-Danville \ as been after since August or September in 1962 to make a 23s" wide backsr board product with recessed edges. They have agreed to take a minimi' a quantity of 250,000 feet per month. They have agreed to pay a couple dollars a thousand extra cost. They have agreed to pay the cost of the tapes that would be necessary for holding the recess after it is formed. I feel Tesy strongly that fiestwall has been dragging their feet. 1 believe that potentially they have an excellent movable partition system if they can get such a product. This product must be of l/2* thick materiel. There have been some sketches submitted showing the tolerances they wanted, which we said we could meet. They now cone back and ask us to indicate what tolerances we could provide. We certainly have the capacity to make this board at the Acme Plant and if they are successful, would certainly like to have this busi ness continually. Since they will bear the cost, would you please review the fils and see if we can't give them some product that might serve their purpose. SGP 0024621
