ROBBINS AUTHORS BOOK
Fred J. Robbins, President of Bliss & Laughlin Industries, is the author of a new hardbound book, "The Camel in the Tent." Consisting of a series of the author's speeches before business and service organizations, this new volume will be both helpful and entertaining to anyone interested in modern business.
Though an arduous proponent of laissez-faire in business, Robbins feels that modern business has a responsibility to bring balance between its social and employee obligations and its very basic obligation to assure a fair return on the owner's investment. It is this management creed that underlies his message to employees, customers, and the general public.
The book is published by Bliss & Laughlin Industries, Oak Brook, III.
NEW PCA MOVIE
"Concrete's Finest 50 Years," a documentary motion picture dramatizing the role of concrete in construction over the past half century has been produced by the Portland Cement Association, which this year is celebrating its golden anniversary. The 32-minute, 16mm sound-color film is available in the United States and Canada on loan from the Association's Central Film Library at 33 West Grand Ave., Chicago 60610, or from any PCA district office.
The motion picture illustrates the great changes that have occurred in structural, highway, farm, water and housing uses of concrete, and stresses the contributions made by the material over the years to all fields of transportation. The film shows how new applications for concrete and new design and construction methods have evolved from rough and sometimes daring innovations.
Each major construction market for concrete is treated separately, with the progress in each traced through historic and modern views. Some rare old scenes go back 100 years or more.
COURT SETTLEMENT
PORTLAND, Ore. An out-of-court settlement in all pending litigation between Omark Industries, Inc. and the McCulloch Corporation was announced.
In announcing the settlement, John D. Gray, Omark president, and Robert P. McCulloch, McCulloch president, said that part of the settlement provided for a long-term arrangement under which it is expected that McCulloch will make substantial purchases of saw chain from Omark. Also Omark has granted McCulloch a license under certain of its patents whereby McCulloch can continue its present line of chain.
"MYSTERY" CRASHES
"Mystery" crashes involving only one car probably will account for some 15.000 traffic deaths this year, according to the National Safety Council.
It is a mystery why the one-car crash happens at all, since it's the one type of accident over which the driver should have control, says a new 12-page booklet, "The Mystery Crashes," published by the Council. The factors involved in this all-too-common kind of accident are discussed in the booklet, and readers are given solid tips for avoiding the "mystery" crash. Among the factors discussed are hazardous road and weather conditions, mental and physical conditions of drivers, and mechanical conditions of the vehicle.
Employers who want to order quantities of the booklet for their employees may do so by requesting "The Mystery Crash, stock number 294.11" from the National Safety Council, 425 N. Michigan Ave., Chicago, Ill. 60611.
America: A place where we jump traffic lights to save seconds, and wait patiently for hours on the first tee.
As the young lady progresses in the ways of the world, she notes the changes: At twenty she blushes when a man praises her; at thirty she thinks the fellow is quite clever; but at forty she wonders what he wants.
"Oh, Jensen-let's have another look at these plans!"
