WOMEIfS RECREATION SURVEY
Out of approximately 400 interest surveys distributed to
the women throughout the plant, about one-half of this number
were returned to the recreation office for tabulation. The survey
summary is interesting and conclusive evidence that the women
of Ecusta are recreational minded and these 195 reports shall
form an excellent basis for our organization of activities in the
months to follow. A summary of reports from all departments
is listed below:

R. F. BENNETT
ELECTED SAFETY
COUNCIL CHMN.
On the evening of September
9, Ecusta Paper Corporation
was acting host to the Western
North Carolina Safety Council.
The meeting was held in our
new cafeteria and, just as an
aside, I might say that many of
us, for the first time, were made
mindful that this building has
many possibilities of serving us
Ecustans in the future with
other than meat and drink.
Mr. Keith Pooser turned the
meeting over to Chairman, Mr.
R. A. Shaw of Sayles Biltmore
Bleacheries, who opened the
business meeting. Secretary
Robert McFarlane called the
roll which was followed by an
nouncement of the winners of
the June and July safety
trophies. Mr. Arthur Thompson
of the Ciba Company, brought
his bag of tricks from Charlotte
and did a fine job of entertain
ing in the role of “amateur
magician”, as he so modestly
proclaimed himself. Me thinks
a guy who can pull cards out
of an egg deserves all honor
due a pro.
“Safety In General’' was the
title of Mr. Fred Magnant’s talk
which was delivered with all
the vim and veracity of a man
whose convictions lie deep-
rooted. We are grateful to him
for a solemn reminder that life
is a precious and irreparable
thing, the preservation of which
takes individual care and
watchfulness in this ape of
humming motors and grinding
gears. He gave us a brief his
tory of the growing concern for
safety measures in industry,
tracing it from the day when
injury and loss of life meant
simply replacing another vic
tim. We were reminded of our
good fortune in having a part
in a new industrial world which
has, through bitter experience,

NO SUCH OBLIGATION
Did you ever wonder if the
bank is under any legal obli
gation to change your $20
bill? If you think they are, get
it out of your system, for they
are not under any such obliga
tion.
A careful study of the bank
ing acts disclose that the Fed
eral Reserve Banks are the only
ones that are specifically re
quired to provide change, so
don’t get huffy if your bank re
fuses you change and accept it
as an accommodation when
they do.
