It is interesting to note that after long resistance, the Ration'll lead Com -ny hove at lost recognized that a high-grade prepared nouse pslnt is superior to lead In oil.
In 1827, 18 or It) plants molting white lead wore combined to fora what *an tnen the "National Lead Truet". Trusts then were all the rage. The dictatorial poser of such trust* soon brought about the Eherasn inli-Truet Lew in 1630 to conbnt such "combina tions in r ctrsint of trade". The "National Lead Trust" see soon liquidated and fith rubeequent additions become the Ration al Lead Goa uny.
At that time and up until almost the present, Rational Lead Com,any have advocated that the beet i.ous* t tint was lead and oil nixed up by the painter on the Job. The: advocate that the "sade-to-order" paint usd many advantages over ready-mixed paint.
To a considerable extent thry were right, but their compr.ricon was with the fLrot ready-mixed paint of the type offered on the nerset folio ing tho Avorill Patent of 1867. This first ready-mixed ; olnt was a most unfortunate concoction using' only line oxide end whiting pigment nixed rith linseed oil red conbined with a large quantity of wster and ocetste of lead and silicate of soda end r very liberal addition of drier and benzine.
The chief advantages claimed by Averill was that his paint would not settle in the package and that the Laborious operation of mixing lead and oil was eliminated. I quote Mr. Eharwin's own words covering hie experience et the time ...
fl had no confidence in Avorill'b undertaking ........ ^nd little as I 'new then about xedLng paint, after eeein;; That muterltle he used, I ceae sway content to vigorously oppose 'Patent' paint, os a.l liquid calnt was called for many yaws. Averill soon had many imitators, and unfortunately for those who came after, imitated hi* too closely. Thus there come to be a well-founded prejudice against prepered paints. But the my hod b en opened to fill e long felt want, and gradually the larger and older manufac turers began to turn their attention to the produc tion of paints in liquid form of reputable quality.
"Rith this handicap of r*judice end failure before us, we gave up our opposition to prepared paints, end 'ut ell of our energy into experiments to see if we could make a really good alnt in liquid fora. I need not toll you tae results. fherwin-WlilleDe Paint was put on the Barket ce tne beet paint that *-ed ever been made. This claim has bed abundant proof for over e. third of a century, end today hervIn-Williams Paint 1e the rideet known, the best liked, and by fax tne most largely distributed of any in ths- world."

There tare been many imltstions and follo-Ln^ Suerrin-Rillirm? Com any'a lead, nor many hl^h-grade prepared paints are offered as the beat material for extGrior printing of wooden buildings.
Ttc consumption of lard In oil has b:*cn constantly de clining. Hole stat.ihtlco indicating tmt the volume 1b now only about 1/6 of .h-it it tea 5 years ago. A recent most im portant illustrations of this wae exr-erlence in the painting of sstny s-rey camps. In November, 1340 re received a re uect for a bid on 55,000 gallons of lead and oil mixed by hand on the job for ; ainllng Can Ederdf>. Tnia was at the beginning of the erection of tae rrny any cernpa ail over the Country.
Racognizinr the uneconomic end Inefficient features of
tnia method, I brougat tills fact to the attention of Dr. Gard
ner, eugge: ting ti.^.t if posrib-le, recommending to the Cuerter-
xaetor General that these army caape be jaint'd with prepared
paint rather then lead nixed by hand on the Job.
Ke consulted General Eonnsrviile vi:n the result that it was decided tr.et th. ''^.uartcxTlsste^, e Do-artment would buy Federal Specification TT-P-56 lead line ready-mixed paint for a~.l army camps and that tee local generals would let contrac tors have cost plus fixed f e besLs for the painting lebor. Axsrde were nude for mi.lion ga Ions of ready-mixed paint.
Folio~ing iaimediolely after this - February, 1941 - not be ing entirely satisfied with the lead rinc ready-mixed paint was t.r.e best for the purpose, General Eoiiuiervlile called together
Dr. lilcttfon. Chief of the Paint Section of the Bureau of Standards, Dr. Gardner, Scientific Section of the National Paint, Tarnisn and Lacquer Association, the beet paint authori ties in In'-- Army and Navy and about a half dozen technical di rectors of tiie most rroiinent nations!, alnt manufacturers. Dr. holley was Included in this.
As a result, of careful deliberations end thorough testa, the
Government adopted Specification TT-P-40 ae the standard fot^tne
peinting of

Proposed Bulletin on "Dutch Boy" c Paint
On discussing this further with the Sales Department we have decided to hold up the bulletin for the present.
Instead we will deal with the sub ject at the District Sales Meetings. At t hat time we will have our con templated STfP. sales story to present and it is believed this will be a better approach a nd will remove any danger of some of our men getting the impression that we are unduly concerned about this competition, etc.
