has asked me to write and advise you of the following facts
regarding Contract
Unexpected difficulties are being experienced in securing proper
operation of the high-seed magnetic recorder constructed under Schedule B
of the contract. These difficulties arise from the great increase in tape
speed over that previously emoloveci when the equipment was used in con-
nection with As a result of the recorder
difficulties, initiation of field testing has been delayed approximately five
weeks, and hence the completion of the work and submission of the final
report will be correspondingly delayed.
Althou h our initial proposal for this work was based on an overhead
rate of we now anticip the company overhead rate for 1954
will be in the neighborhood of Air Force audit of our 1954 operations
is still in process, and it w ome little time yet before the overhead
rate is finally established. s the present estimate for overhead during
the first half of 1955, although it is also difficult to forecast this rate pre-
cisely. Based on these assumptions regarding overhead rates, we anticipate
that the funds originally planned to cover Schedule B of the contract will be
expended as of the presently scheduled termination date of 18 March 1955.
