In addition to general business conditions, trend of company to sales through branches Influences our bad debt losses and turnover of receivables. Instead of dealing vith a smaller nunber of larger firms performing a distribution function, ve now deal directly vith vide range of accounts formerly serviced by distributors, and this leads to increased losses end slower turnover.

The principal factors earning this net Increase by group were:
Coatings and Resins
- Total inventory for this group was down through a
combination of efforts to reduce Inventory levels particularly in the Reading and San Francisco Divisions coupled with high sales volume la most areas in the late months of fiscal 1961. The group's year-end finished stock inventory was same $290,000 below its goal reflecting this greater than anticipated year-end sales level.

I. Balance Sheet Review
D. Inventories - continued
Food
- Total oil physical inventory quantities were up about five per cent over the previous year end which coupled with higher 1961 year-end price levels in cotton seed and coconut oils resulted in an in crease in dollar inventories at the oil divisions of $1,250,000. In spite of a &f> increase in sales level at Bethlehem, better inventory control resulting from the RAMAC installation enabled that division to achieve
a $190,000 reduction in finished stock levels.
C-P-M
- Sharply reduced ore stocks at the Adrian Joyce Works resulted in a reduction of $900,000 in inventories at that location. This decrease was partially offset by the 1961 year-end inventory stocks of $435,000 re
sulting from the fiscal 1961 acquisition of the Johnstown operations.
Organic Chemical
- The substantial increase in inventory investment in this division results from a substantial increase in Work-in-Process inventories at Jacksonville. Most of
this increase of $390,000 is in the Fine Terpene area. Increased finished stock at Port St. Joe of Sylvaros 80 accounted for $525,000 of the $710,000 total Organic Chemical finished stock increase.
UFO Reserve
- Higher price levels of certain Food Group oil stocks resulted in a substantial Increase in the LIFO Reserve at August 31, 19&L compared to the same date of the previous year.
Turnover - Published Net Sales to year-end net inventory:
1961 i960 1959 1958

Inventory control is achieved through the Joint efforts of management and operating personnel.
In the Coatings and Resins Group on a semi-annual basis, subject to monthly
reviews, Finished Stock dollars goals are established by & Headquarters In ventory Committee on a regional basis. These goals ere established only after careful study and consultation with Regional management. It is the responsi bility of Regional management to allocate by operating unit and by product
within its goal. Performance is compared to goal each month, both at Head quarters and each Region. Explanations of variances are determined and any

by a translation of Finished Stock goals through the Joint effort of production management end purchasing personnel at both Headquarters and at each Region.
Inventory control in the Food Group ia established through pars set for total Inventory by division through the Joint effort of Headquarters and Division management. Of even greater importance is the dally control exercised on rav materials baaed on market quotations of edible oil* and condiment rav materials. The Durkee Trading Office is constantly projecting market condi tions into rav material requirements through teletype communication vith Headquarters and Division management. Market conditions on pepper and other materials are also projected into requirements on a daily basis.
The respective division managers in C-P-M and Organic Chemical exercise control of inventories as required by their individual market sources and operating requirements situations.

Development Costs have played a large part in the above increases. In 1961 there van $2,151,000 charged to Selling and Administrative Expense as com pared to $997,000 in i960. An additional $676,000 of Development Costs vas charged to Cost of Sales in i960.
Operating Groups The increase can all he attributed to improving the sales distribution systems of these Groups, Coatings and Resins Group's branch expansion
program accounts for at least $1,1*75,000 of their $1,724,000 increase. Foods increased expenses were related to the additional sales manpower which helped to effect a 10.8$ sales increase. Realignment of the sales staff at the C-P-M Division and the addition of Johnstown and Johnsohburg
caused the C-P-M increases. The larger portion of research expense charged to the sales department caused the Organic Chemical increase.
Headquarters
Headquarters Administrative Expenses were $6,345,000 this year compared to
$7,034,000 last year and $6,062,000 in 1999. Changes in pension, bonus and

B. Bonus Plan
Original plan adopted February 8, 1951, and amended February 1*, 1952* Admin* istered by a Bonus Committee elected by the Board of Dirednrs. In 1955,
Gilbert suggested provision preventing bonus to top officers until a certain dividend has been paid.
Formula provides 12$ must be earned (pretax) on bonus net capital (capital, term debt, etc.) before providing a bonus of 7* of prefit. Net income must exceed 6* bonus net capital employed also. The 1961 computation vas:

B. Bonus Plan (Continued)
Since 1951, the maximum allowable provision was $2,557,863. We ^ave *tomaed to profit $952*163 leaving $1,605,700 for bonus payout.
In 1959, 124 awards were mads, totaling $209,750. The highest individual amount awarded was $8,000 (to Duncan and Halsey). A total of 1,196 awards
have been
from 1951 through 1959* Maximum in any one year was 212, lowest
48. The highest individual amount awarded was $12,000 (to Duncan, Sprague,
Ruth and Goldseth in 1951*)
Gilbert suggested resubmitting plan every five years to stockholders. We feel we need do bo only when there is a material change.
Ho bonus awards were made either in i960 or 1961.
The purpose of the Bonus Plan is to provide reward and incentive to those
employees and officers, except the Chairman of the Board of Directors and
the President, who, beyond the call of duty, contribute to the success of
the Company. As provided in the Plan, each award of more than $1,000 is
paid in
instalments of 25$ of the amount awarded or $1,000, which
ever is greater, and the Bonus Comittee determines what part of any award
is to be paid in cash or stock. Ho bonus awarded to an employee for any
fiscal year may exceed 50$ of the basic annual salary of such employee at
the end of such fiscal year.
Ten officers of the Company who serve as directors, and approximately 500 other employees (including ten officers) who receive salaries of $750 or more per month,are currently eligible for consideration for bonus awards.
The Chairman of the Board of Directors and President may not be awarded a bonus under the Plan.
C. Stock Options
1. 1952 Stock Optica Plan
Under this Flan 100,000 shares of authorized and unissued Common Stock were made available. The Plan provided that no option could be granted to an employee after age 65, and no participant could receive options covering more than 5,OX shares. The Plan also provided that the option price could cot be less than 95$ of the fair market value of the stock on the day the option was granted, and the option period could not ex ceed ten years from, the date the option was granted nor more than three months after retirement of a participant. All rights to exercise options terminate when an employee ceases to be an employee for any cause other than death or retirement.
As of August 31, 1961, options to purchase 118,870 shares (51,100 to officers and directors) had been granted under the 1952 plan. (Options for 24,110 shares had expired by reason of termination of emplyment, of which options for 18,870 shares were reissued, as authorized by the Plan, to qualifying employees.)

Our salary rates, including those for officers and other key employees, in cluding bonus, are fully in line with studies on this subject, such as by
AMA. We must be cosqaetitive in salaries and other inducements such as stock options, to attract and hold good men.
The Proxy Statement reports that total remuneration of all directors and officers as a group decreased from $817,180 in i960 to $786,251. The principal reason for the decrease is a reduction in bonuses paid in 1961.
P. Other Benefits
In addition to the Retirement Plan, employees are eligible to participate in a group life insurance, hospital and surgical benefit plan, a major medical plan, and an accidental death insurance plan. The Company has a formalized salary continuation policy whereby salaried employees receive a por tion of their salary during prolonged illness -- the length of continuation depending upon the employee's length of service*
