oleering this ratter up.
B.I.C. are currently roving their Vlllssdsn plant down to Ronsey and hope to have thla Installed by May, then.they will be ready to take their first tanker deliveries of Aroclor 1242. I believe the Idea Is to run Aroolor 1234 in the plant they will be roving down from Wllleaden, and 1242 In the new plant at Itorsey already installed and working.
i
They will be placing ordere with us for JApua quantities of Aroolor 124 for cleaning out the storage vessel. T'
I oownented on the eiratio way in xhloh they are purchasing at the moment. At the beginning of this year they suddenly started ordering quantities considerably higher than previously and have subsequently been cancelling several deliveries. It seses that Mr. Beam* has not really worked out exactly how much notarial they will be needing. I dlsouseed this with Mr. Beams and It was agreed that, for the tine being, they will probably be using about 1} or 14 dr-ura per nonth total, rather than the 20 which they have been ordering. It wae agreed that we should oanoel their ordar for delivery In the middle of Maroh but leave onHhe books the order for delivery at the and of March. By the end of Hgrch Mr. Beams hoped to have assessed fairly soouratsly exactly wjiat quantities of notarial they will be requiring.
CQKFATIBELm OF nATRIALS
B.I.C. seal their oapaoltors with rubber decks purchased frfcm loco. These have been quits satisfactory with Aroolor 1234 but a preliminary ohsck has lndloatsd to them that there nay be diffleultl with Aroolor 1242. Liston gave ns 12 of these seals and asked us to do a oonparatlve oheok on Aroclor 1234 and Aroclor 1242. A teohnio&l sarvloe request has been entered for this work. I said that I would try to get then an answer on this as soon as possible.

Mr.' Strong told ne that their turnover la now oC the order of ci million per year and that they hope to raise thla to ^ million at the end of 1965 and reach a turnover of 1 million per year In three or four years' tine. However, he admitted that be is finding difficulties at the moment now that the organisation has grows to Its
present size beoause he le still short of good Exsoutlvea to organise
the day to day running of the factory. I got the impression that he is feeling the strain a bit himself at ths moment. He la certainl;
working hard to try to get somebody with abllitj to work under him.
