3. attended a seminar given by the Control Data
Corporation on January 18-20. The seminar was concerned with the
operating systems of computers and was designed to aid management
in the selection of Automatic Data Processing Systems. Many new
approachs to the problem were presented and the seminar provided
valuable information on the subject.
4. In January 1971 the Xerox Corporation announced a rental
price increase of approximately 6% or $15, 000 per year. Since we
were in the middle of switching from offset reproduction to Xerox
this price increase was a disappointment to me. After weighing all
the factors, I have decided to go back to offset for the bulk of our
cable reproduction. This was a difficult decision for me to make
but the increase in Xerox cost left me no good choice. We will continue
to rely upon Xerox, but for a reduced number of impressions in order
to reduce the net cost.
