Attas Mr. Hoamer, Plant Mgr,
Dear Mr. Hoamer, Our company has been manufacturing dry lubricating sticks for lubricating
the flangea of locomotive wheels for approximately two years, Ms bare not pushed the sals of thoas sticks until recent Months because ve wanted to aake sure the product would be accepted before we spent too such on development. Sales have been continuously rising and we feel sure of a steady aarket now.
Ve sake two types of lubricating sticks both containing Monsanto Aroolor. Our regular stiok contains 1254 Aroolor and our high temperature stick contains 1266 Aroolor, At the present tine we are not using too muoh of your product however as sales go up we will use nor* and more and the manufacture of these sticks will have to be fairly continuous.
There is a large amount of fumes connected with the manufacturing process and, knowing that thsrs is some danger from breathing ar>clor fumes we would like to ssk if you would be kind enough to aend one of your Safety Engineers to our plant to advise us as to the best way to avoid these fumes. The fumee oause our workers to cough profusely end make the entire area very uncomfortable to work in.
If you can handle this request for us it will be greatly appreciated. Just let us know what day will be oonvenient for one of your ;ien to come down and we will arrange to make sticks on that day.
Thank you very much for any help you can g-ve us on -.his problem and may we hear from you soon.
ROTimeh
Yours Very Truly, Transall, Incorporated
