Dear Dr. Allen:
Just received your letter concerning Ray Williams.

It has occurred to me that you may be in a position to recommend some of
your boys who may be qualified as employment interviewers here. They should
have at least a certain amount of knowledge concerning occupations in
mechanical fields and above all should be able to pass judgment and be

able to act as contact man with shop employees and supervisors.

We are also interested in someone who has a background which would fit into
work in our training division. A fundamental knowledge of vocational educa-
tion is important and also a personality which would make the individual
acceptable to enable him to establish congenial relations in the shop.

I would suggest that if you have anyone in mind for any of these jobs that
you write me direct first before referring anyone to us. I am writing you
concerning this because I believe you have a good idea as to the type of
fellows for whom we are looking for this kind of work and believe that some
of the boys with whom you have worked should have most of the fundamental
qualities that we need.

We have Ray's application on file and will give it every consideration as
openings occur.

We are looking forward to your promised visit.
Sincerely yours,

BORING AIRPLANE COMPANY
