Dear Sir:

On May 13th the writer made a final inspection of the swimming
pool filter and recirculating system whieh is located in the gymnasium
milding.

Incidentally, we discovered that the pool is of obsolete design
and, of course, it is very difficult to obtain the desired results,
inasmuch as the pool has uo scum gutters and, furthermore, a depth of
water of approximately 8* is maintained over the entire area. Modern
pools, as you no doubt know, have a shallow end of approximately 3' to 4° of water
and slope down to a depth of between 8' and 9' of water. This is to enable
beginners to use the shallow end and, of course, the experienced swimmers the
deep end. |

There is nothing that can be done to improve the pool as the cost would
be prohibitive. However, the final results that are now being obtained under
the present set-up should be appreciated and, no doubt, such results are due
to careful operation.

Now, in regard to rehabilitating the present filter and recirculating
system, we recommend the following:

1. A new recirculating pump and motor should be installed as the
present unit has too small a capacity. In other words, according
to our figures, with your present pump the contents of the pool
are turned over once every 18% hours and by furnishing a larger
pump and motor the contents of the pool would be turned over every
12% hours. However, according to the best practice, the pool
should be turned over once every 8 hours, but this cannot be done,
owing to the size of your present filter itself. It is not advis-
abae to furnish a larger filter at this time as it would be im-
practical to do so, because of the space available and also the
question of removing the present filter and installing a new one,
as there are no openings in the building of sufficient size to do
the work.

2. A hair and lint catcher should be installed in the suction
line to the pump in order to prevent hair and lint and other
foreign matter from passing through the pump and on to the filter.
@Le

3. New strainers also filter sand and gravel should be placed in
the filter as the present strainers and sand and gravel are in

very bad shape. In addition, before placing in the new strainers
and sand and gravel, the inside of the filter should be brushed down
by means of a wire brush or other suitable means for removing as
much of the scale as possible. Also, the agitator on the present
filter should be removed, at least that portion inside the filter.

4. <A gauge should be installed on the in line t the filter and
also a gauge on the outlet line from the filter, in order to tell
the operater when it is time to wash the filter.

We believe that if the above recommendations are followed, good
results would be obtained and the equipment would operate at high efficiency.

In the event we would be successful, in securing the order for doing
the above mentioned work, we would, for the lump sum price of Eight Hundred
and Forty Seven Dollars ($847.00), furnish and install all of the equipment
and put the filter and recirculating system in first class operating condition.

Should you desire to go ahead with the work at this time, we could
start possibly within two weeks time as one of our men would be available then.
It would be necessary that we have a priority in order to purchase some of the
equipment, especially the new recireulating pump and motor. Furthermore, in
order to get the job done quickly, it would be necessary that you obtain, at
leasty, an AA-3 priority as even with a higher rating than this it would require

from 14 to 16 weeks to get shipment on the pump.
Very truly yours,

E. W. Bacharach & Company

(Signed) Ae W. Livingston.

The price for furnishing 100 strainers and 100 bushings would be
$44.00 feoebe Lawbence, and for furnishing the filter sand and gravel the
price would be $63.00 f.o.b. Lawrence, You will note in our letter of re=
commendation that we named a price of $847.00. This, of course, is furnish-
ing a complete job and the price named for the strainers, bushings, sand and
gravel would be deducted from the $847.00.

Very truly yours,

To the Budget Comnittee:

Mre A. W, Livingston, chief engineer for E. We Bacharach & Company
of Kansas City, Missouri, after making a final inspection of the swimming pool
filter and recirculating system in our gymnasium, has offered the suggestions in
his letter of May 14. A carbon copy of the same is attached, for your observation.

After removing the filter, rock and gravel from the mammoth steel
drum, Mr. Livingston recommends a replacement of 100 brass bushings and loo Type $
strainers, together with 2100 pounds of filter gravel and 4200 pounds of Blue

filter sande The total is $107.00, This sand ‘and gravel come from Red
Wing, Minnosota, and it is apparently the only sharpegrained sand that will do the
jobs This mterial is necessary to get the filter functioning for our Summer
School program. ‘This is a "must", and it is listed as an emergency. I am there-
fore sending a requisition through the Business Office for this needed material.

You will see by Mr, Livingston's letter that his total bid is
$847.00, including the item of $107.00 for sand and so forthe Therefore, I would
likes te recommend to the Budget Committes that we ask Mr, Livingston to go ahead
with the recirculating pump and motor and the other additional items that he
mentions in his letter, The othor itens would smount to $740.00. This includes
the labor of installation, plumbers, and material and all equfpment. This is a
bid to complete the gobs |

_ il asked Mr. Livingston for the address of some tile and marble
people so that we could get bids on the possible installation of the 1275 tile
to replace the broken ones. Of course this would be an additional expenditure.
and rather a heavy ones I am going ahead and asking that these various firms
submit bids for the replacement of these tile and I will submit that to you at
an early date. I called attention to the heavy expense to the University through
the leakage of five thousand gallons a day due to faulty tile.

To All Purchasers of Chlorine:

You will find attached copy of a letter which we have just
received from the War Production Board, requesting that all
shipments of Chlorine made on or after April 1 be shipped
against a three-months! allocation,

It is, therefore, necessary that you send in your order imme-
diately to cover your requirements for the months of April,
May, and June. In the future, all orders must be placed on a
quarterly instead of monthly basis. If you have already sub-
mitted your order for April, please forward a revised order to
cover the specified period.

It is quite possible that you will not receive this informa-
tion in time to file application, so we are estimating your
requirements in order to forward promptly our report to the
War Production Board. Upon receipt of your revised order
covering the quarter, we shall amend our request accordingly.

Your promptness in forwarding your order for the quarter will
indeed be appreciated.

To All Purchasers of Chlorine:

All shipments of chlorine made on or after April 1, 1943, shall
be shipped against a three-months! allocation. Therefore, it is neces-
sary that two copies of your PD-190, Application Order for Chlorine, be
in the hands of your supplier on or before March 10, 1943 (March 5th if
your supplier is not an actual producer of chlorine}. This application
shall cover your chlorine requirements for the months of April, May, and
JUNE «

If the total liquid chlorine you purchase during April, May and
June will be 2000 pounds or less per month, or if the chlorine you pur-
chase will be used for Potable Water Treatment, Industrial Water Treat-
ment, Swimming Pool Sanitation, or Sewage Treatment, it is not necessary
that you file a PD-190 form. However, your three-months’ order must be
received by your supplier at the same time as though you were filing a
PD-190, and must carry the certification clause as previously outlined
to you by your supplier and provided for in General Preference Order M-19
as amended December 1, 1942, If you do not come under one of the above
classes, you must send your order and two copies of form PD-190 properly
filled in to your supplier. We realize That the present PD-190 form is
not particularly applicable to the ordering of chlorine for a three-months!
period, Therefore, we submit the following, specific instructions to assist
you in filing your application. With the following exceptions, all columns
are to be filled in exactly the same manner as you would follow when
ordering for one month only.

Dear Mr. Stanley,

Thank you for your letter and enclosure of Sept. 3 explaining
your set-up in the production of clorine.

We understand fully your position in this emergency.

Our situation here is that our pool serves most of the 4000
students enrolled in the University of Kansas and since swimming
is a required course, it is necessary for us to. keep the water
safe for the student's use. ;

We have found in the past that one cylinder of clorine is enough
to supply us for two years.

Since our last order was filled in August of this year, we do —
‘not expect to need more clorine until the summer of 1943.

‘Thank you for your letter.

Sincerely yours,

Director of Physical Education and Recrestion

Gentlemen:

We attach a statement covering our interpretation of General
Preference Order No. M-19 issued to all producers of Chlorine in
the United States by the Office of Production Management. This
Order is to conserve the supply and direct the distribution of
Chlorine. The attached also includes a summary of the Civilian
Allocation Program issued by Leon Henderson, Administrator, Office
of Price Administration and Civilian Supply. On the basis of
orders received, it has been necessary for us to formulate certain
general policies.

First, no new business will be accepted, either spot or contract.
Second, no renewal contracts will be accepted.

Third, present contract consumers falling under the Civilian Allo-
cation Program classification will be supplied up to the maximum of
their contracts and in emergency, additional cylinders, if avail-
able, unless requirements to National Defense under Government
priorities makes such procedure impossible.

Fourth, we will endeavor to supply spot customers who purchased
their requirements from us in 1940 up to an amount they purchased
during that year. We will also endeavor to cover them in a reason-
able amount where water conditions demand heavier chlorination than
in the previous year.

In view of our desire to take care of your requirements under these
conditions, we suggest you obtain from the Office of Production
Management or Office of Price Administration and Civilian Supply
priorities extended to us, thus assuring you of the maximum avail-
able in accordance with preference ratings furnished us.

We are certain you appreciate the urgency of this situation and
look forward to your prompt reply.

Yours very truly

MONSANTO CHEMICAL COMPANY
St. Louis, Missouri

The Office of Production Management has issued General
Preference Order M-19, effective July 26, 1941, which is

for the purpose of conserving the supply and directing the
distribution of Chlorine. The Office of Price Administra-
tion and Civilian Supply has issued the Civilian Allocation
cs ag covering Chlorine after defense needs have been cared
or.

In accordance with our understanding, General Preference
Order M-19 places Chlorine under mandatory control, ship-~
ments to be made in accordance with Preference Ratings
received by the producer. When a defense order for Chlorine
is offered to the producer, it shall be accepted providing
such order meets the regular prices and terms of sale of
such producer and deliveries shall be made under such order
in accordance with the Preference Ratings assigned thereto
and the delivery schedule specified thereunder, even though
deferment of deliveries under non-defense orders previously
accepted is necessitated thereby.

Under the Civilian Allocation Program, the order provides
"adequate supplies of Chlorine shall be allocated for the
following uses -- water purification, sewage treatment,
sanitation, refrigerant gases for existing equipment, slime
control in industrial plants, preparation of products for
medicinal use, preservation and processing of food products."

In accordance with our understanding, it is indicated that
the total defense plus the civilian demand for Chlorine is
in excess of the available supoly, and the Government has
decreed that Chlorine shall be furnished for the defense
program in accordance with General Preference Order M-19
after which adequate supplies of Chlorine shall be allocated
to the uses given above. If any Chlorine remains, it can

be sold for various civilian uses of lesser importance.
