        1) Formation of MERCHANDISE EVALUATION COMMITTEE was announced by CAO\u2019s in response to need to evaluate what items should be sold and which items are needed for use by family. The following persons have been selected: Kay Nelson, chairperson, (Hugh [Hue] Fortson] alternate), members \u2013 Ruby Carol [Carroll], Joyce Touchette, Hugh Fortson, Beverly Livingston, Alice Ingram [Inghram] and Kay Nelson. This committee falls under the BUSINESS department.<\/p>\n

        2) Food storage \u2013 Prokes is to contact both Georgetown and Stateside on issue of getting books, booklets etc. on ways for tropical food storage, problems with canned goods, etc. Suggest we procure some from Berkeley, etc.<\/p>\n

        3) Feed storage \u2013 animals: Present plan is to build bins for the feed storage. Consider also purchase of silos in Georgetown \u2013 CT [Charlie Touchette] says were available. GET PRICING ON THESE. When the new buildings are constructed for food storage in the central community area, we are considering special storage for the flour and grains \u2013 possibly the large plastic tanks, or the vacuum barrels \u2013 but will need a lot more barrels for this. Check with Georgetown on the feasibility of purchasing of the barrels and cost \u2013 not to have had any petroleum products in them.<\/p>\n

        4) Since Ron Talley came up with recommendation on the saving of money through using whole, powdered milk as against the Carnation \u2013 former having greater shelf storage life also, and can put in vacuum storage\u2026 Discovered need more information. Phyllis Bloom is to check with medical and see the problems or benefits of the powdered whole milk over the canned carnation milk for babies formulas. Milkman Whole Powdered Milk is what we have been using. Joyce T. to give her information needed.<\/p>\n

        5) Children’s art courses \u2013 Mary W. has requested to write out a children’s art course for our school program. Carolyn [likely Kirkendall] cleared with Jack that the time for this is to be taken after school gets started again.<\/p>\n

        6) PSU & EDUCATION DEPT: Question is since PSU supervisors have children of school age, they need training in this. They are to come to training sessions. There are 3 permanent PSU children \u2013 they will be integrated into the public school system. Teachers will arrange alternates during their teachers training sessions.<\/p>\n

        7) Tom Grubbs will spend more time with the PSU department when Dolores Wilson arrives to aid in the administration department. Tom has some ideas for working with anarchistic patterns, particularly in children.<\/p>\n

        ACAO\u2019s PUTTING ON PSU DIRECT \u2026 Some will be put on PSU direct from departments by the ACAO\u2019s in charge of the departments\u2026 However, this will become a day-to-day thing; they will have no control over how many days or when the person can come off\u2026 Sentence is not to be determined by supervisors; is determined by Dad and Jury in People’s Rally.<\/p>\n

        8) Chicken feed \u2013 There is some question as to the value of the chicken feed \u2013 John Harris is challenging it\u2026 Says some have signs of rickets. Those on the pig feed doing okay so far. Hugh [Hue] said John Harris gave chickens ground up corn to cure the problem. Jack to check this out.<\/p>\n

        9) Prokes to radio Georgetown and see what commercial growers feed their chickens \u2013 if same thing, then not likely the problem. We have had no trouble with this before. There have been a lot of sanitation problems<\/u> reported lately, and these may be contributory.<\/p>\n

        10) Distemper \u2013 Jack was to check if John Harris has arranged the distemper shots. There should be a radio message and an order go in on this unless John ordered direct through medical ordering person\u2026 JACK PUSH IT\u2026<\/p>\n

        11) Richard is to be contacted for more barrels for food storage from Georgetown. Need at least 300 \u2013 can be lighter weight, need only pull 5-7 pressure\u2026 Not to get petroleum product barrels \u2013 food storage only should have been in them.<\/p>\n

        12) Lumber \u2013 3100 BM short from Papaya, 9000 due us from Georgetown\u2026 Ask Richard if he has followed up on this. He is having transportation problems and this is a major problem.<\/p>\n

        [Marginal note: “Johnny”] This should probably be conveyed directly to Dad \u2026 From what Richard told us is a major problem of why he cannot get his work done. Jack feels is valid<\/u> problem.<\/p>\n

        13) Albatross \u2013 Richard was to see that this is completed by end of 1st week in September, if not \u2013 then it is to go to drydock in Georgetown. Prokes is to check with Richard on this. Get date of completion.<\/p>\n

        14) Clevie Sneed asked to make the beads for the program of incentives\u2026 Will make announcement tonight. DEPARTMENT SUPERVISORS SHOULD BE TURNING IN THEIR NAMES FOR “BEST WORKER” each week.<\/p>\n

        15) There was a question on Nancy Sines scheduling \u2013 Lee said he will get her schedule checked out, and report back to us on this.<\/p>\n

        16) Painting garbage cans \u2013 Aurora Rodriguez is to paint all the garbage cans like the ones she did for herbal kitchen. Was to do this with Rhonda [Fortson]. Presently working on loan to sewing department.<\/p>\n

SEE ITEM 12 IN RE DRAFT ANIMALS \u2013 Jack told Richard whom he should talk with\u2026 Mrs. Bachus on E. Bank. He agreed to do this in front of FEB [Finance Evaluation Board] when last here\u2026 Prokes to tell him about this\u2026 Remind him he promised us this.<\/p>\n

        18) Another business person needed in town \u2013 Carolyn [Layton] will suggest this out and others of triumvirate; she said they had others in mind\u2026<\/p>\n

        19) Road crew was selected by Triumvirate\u2026 Burrell Wilson, Keaty Wright, Pat Patterson, Jerry Wilson, Larry Layton, [blank space for another name] and Mike Touchette.<\/p>\n

        The bulldozer operations are still under Jack \u2013 Mike is to be conferring with Jack on his work assignments, is still under Jack on dozers. Christian is over the work crew.<\/p>\n

        20) CAO\u2019s are to sit down with Farm department and accounting and figure what should remain on the paperwork\u2026 Thurs 1:00 PM.<\/p>\n

        21) Dispatch officer \u2013 Lucy Crenshaw: all departments are to check with Lucy on things going out of Jonestown. Attach instructions for Gtn and DO GET AN ORDER NUMBER FOR THE ITEM. Question asked if the fertilizer ever reached Georgetown \u2013 opinion<\/u> was that it had.<\/p>\n

        22) Cudjoe business \u2013 The Cudjoe falls under the Business department which is Kay and Hugh\u2026 Hugh will work directly on the Cudjoe business. Lucy will let the Captain know and will sign for the manifest going to Georgetown. Lucy is then to go to the radio and transmit what she is sending in so that they will check off the items for repair, etc. Repair items are to first have departmental supervisors signature and then come to finance committee with a ballpark estimate for repairs; if too far above listed estimate, Gtn should get approval for increase.<\/p>\n

        23) ORDER NUMBERS WILL BE LISTED for items sent into town for repair. Presently looking for drums and gauge sent in for repair\u2026 Everything needs a number.<\/p>\n

        Many other contacts have changed it was pointed out \u2013 and a new list of information needs to be compiled. Guyana Electric was asking us about source for buying the rewinding wire promoters from stateside.<\/p>\n

        PUT DESCRIPTION ON THE ITEM ALONG WITH THE PURCHASE ORDER NUMBER. Must have Dad’s approval for the expenditure. Describe what you think is wrong with item, and what you think might need to be done \u2013 and what kind of place to take it to for repair, if you know\u2026 Check with Charlie and others for this last information.<\/p>\n

        25) Phyllis said that on leaving all treatment of infections till night, they often forget them or the dirt stays in too long \u2013 much more severe infections result. Medical does not have the night staffing to handle all of these at night.<\/p>\n

        26) Wagnal was taking care of the big black cat that was castrated \u2013 there are a lot of little males running around that will be impregnating their sisters and through inbreeding danger of malformed animals with deformed hips, etc. Important we get them caught and castrated\u2026<\/p>\n

        27) castration trainees \u2013 it was agreed we need some other persons besides Larry to handle the castrations. Get Larry together with John Harris, Cleveland Newell and Vicki Marshall. Johnny will suggest this to Larry and John Harris\u2026<\/p>\n

        ACAO AGENDA ITEMS and follow-up\u2026 24 Aug prior meeting<\/p>\n

        Follow-up:<\/p>\n

          \n
        1. All personnel lists with worker \u2013 “other” skills lists to be into Carolyn L. [Layton], are these all done?<\/li>\n
        2. Major Thomas \u2013 what about dump truck at Ridge; still need to borrow & should arrangements be made?<\/li>\n
        3. Kay [Nelson] to schedule down river trip to Kamaca for inventory and planning \u2013 when is this scheduled? [Marginal notes: “Table. After Garry is here after 10th Sept.\u201d]<\/li>\n
        4. CAO\u2019s and ACAO\u2019s should confirm analysts decision not to repair the cassava press or mill for safety reasons originally \u2013 now not considered unsafe. CT [Charlie Touchette] WAS TO FIX THE STOVE, considered much more dangerous at the Cassava Mill. [Marginal note: “Table\u201d]<\/li>\n
        5. Did Agriculture complete Carolyn’s instruction to prepare of instructions for every plant they spray \u2026 Written down? [Marginal note: “Table\u201d]<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          AGENDA ITEMS<\/u><\/p>\n

          1) Cassava kitchen gave pots to Joyce’s [Touchette] group, or kitchen while they were closed down. Now they are re-opening and say kitchen will not return their pots (Mary Wotherspoon and Teena Turner complaining). Is there some reason for this?<\/p>\n

          2) FROM STEERING \u2013 Was pricing done for senior sitting area by CT<\/p>\n

          3) FROM STEERING \u2013 Is the Bell System (gong) started? Who is assigned?<\/p>\n

          4) FROM STEERING \u2013 Railings in pavilion to be scheduled for moving back to outside walls and maps to be moved out also.<\/p>\n

          5) FROM STEERING \u2013 Colors were to be selected for cottages paint and order to be placed. As of this date Finance Evaluation Board has not received the order.<\/p>\n

          6) Inventory security in Parts and Tool room \u2013 Nat [Swaney] expenses need to keep people from gate-hopping and stealing or taking supplies without notation. Recommend fencing to ceiling and door with locks and a periodic security to check to see that night supervisor keeps it locked \u2013 none should be in there but night supervisor after Nat is gone, and will have to make notation on any items used.<\/p>\n

          7) All departments are responsible to see that your inventories are completed with prices and that by September 1, you have a costing program in effect in your department. Every ACAO is responsible to see Harold [Cordell Bogue] or Tish [Leroy] to see that monthly cost-sheets are going into the accounting department. September 1 is starting deadline\u2026 If the ACAO does not have the new costing set up started, they are responsible to do it. Jesse will be around on September 1 to see that the new systems are in operation. Carol, Tish, Jesse and Harold will personally come in and help you set it up\u2026 but it must be in and functioning by September 1. One week later, tentative budgets will be figured for each department, and thereafter departments will have to function within those budgets \u2013 though they can request to<\/p>\n

           <\/p>\n

          C-8-a-55b<\/p>\n

          modify if they feel it is not reasonable. All departments are herewith requested to list (as many as possible) ways in which they can cut their departmental costs, and ways to reduce the labor necessary to operate their department.<\/p>\n

          8) SAFETY REPORT IS TO BE GIVEN EACH MEETING\u2026<\/p>\n

          9) Merchandise evaluation committee should be named \u2013 FEB [Finance Evaluation Board] recommends that Kay Nelson (representing the stores) and Joyce Touchette representing central supply and family needs be placed on the committee along with others recommended \u2013 Hugh [Hue] Fortson as alternate for Kay but a regular committee member, and possibly Alice Ingram [Inghram] and others \u2013 a committee of perhaps 5-7 members with requirement that at least 2 from each of the two divisions be present and perhaps the others could be hopefully objective persons without bias in either department. CAO\u2019s might want to take this under advisement after hearing the recommendations of the ASSISTANT CAO\u2019s\u2026 however, an issue is at hand with the caps currently in the warehouse \u2013 Patty [Cartmell] wants them now, and the Central supply needs some for the field workers and those in the sun needing protection for their eyes and faces. [Marginal note: “Kay has a list of names.\u201d]<\/p>\n

              C-8-a-57b<\/p>\n

              [handwritten notes]<\/p>\n

              Ask Maryann [Casanova] who told her to move broken furniture under Apt. 1<\/p>\n

              PROBLEM AREAS AND FOLLOW-UP \u2013 22 August 78<\/p>\n

                \n
              1. When electricity goes on in cottages must go through in re the lights left on when electricity went off.<\/li>\n
              2. Steering \u2013 A meeting date should be set even if it is not until next Monday. People do not feel rejected if a time is set for their functioning.<\/li>\n
              3. Analysts \u2013 should not wait until Friday night \u2026 possibly tomorrow night after the fashion show they should meet. The agenda is heavy<\/u> and things are not doing too well. Russell [Moton] checked in with Carol on his schedule only once\u2026 No one told me, I asked this morning because it was on my checklist. (See item one on commentary)<\/li>\n
              4. ACAO\u2019s time should be spent planning the meeting and an \u2013 allowing enough time to adequately cover agenda should be drawn the items list. Then a time should be set for the meeting.<\/li>\n
              5. Government responsibility: function sheets and the large red chart\u2026 these are completed and should be given to Dad double check before putting up publicly. Possibly he will want to give a copy of the functioning sheet to [Don] Freed\u2026 But he would have to check it first. Let me know if anything still needs changing. Gene [Chaikin] worked with me on this.<\/li>\n
              6. Steering items become ACAO jobs\u2026 The following as far as I know are either incomplete or have never gone on your schedule for ACAO\u2019s.\n
                  \n
                1. CT [Charlie Touchette] to figure pricing for Senior sitting area structure.<\/li>\n
                2. Bell system (gong) to be completed.<\/li>\n
                3. [Handwritten entry] Colors to be selected for cottages & order to be placed \u2013<\/li>\n
                4. Railings in pavilion to be scheduled for moving back to outside walls and maps to be moved out also<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n
                5. Department lists of personnel, hours scheduled and skills \u2013 I mentioned to Lucy [Crenshaw] and had Jesse give her a list (You told ACAO\u2019s she would pick them up from them)\u2026 She is starting to contact them today. Needs a public announcement again to remind them to cooperate with her on this. Carolyn [Layton] asked for it last meeting.<\/li>\n
                6. Yellow time sheets I gave you last ACAO meeting were to be reviewed, the pink retained by you and the yellow’s returned to me\u2026 Did not get them back and I’m holding this week’s timesheets for you now.<\/li>\n
                7. Ernestine Blaire [Ernestine Blair] \u2013 Jack [Beam] wants to replace her with Eugene Smith\u2026 did he talk with you on this? Is there some other place she could be placed so it would not hurt her so much\u2026 She says she wants out every time it comes to floor, so think she would feel relieved if have some face saving change.<\/li>\n
                8. Town still has not gotten us the soil testing items Russell needs. Will put through another radio message on this. RUSSELL GOOFING ON HIS SCHEDULE \u2026 this tends to mushroom very fast, because his omissions cause entire growing area to fall down.<\/li>\n
                9. [Asterisk in margin on this item] I gave you two additional memos\u2026 wanting your input before I went to dad with the items, or let you do it if you preferred. Felt it was important or would not have taken time to write it\u2026 If you have no opinion on it will go ahead and write it up to Dad \u2013 would rather have your reactions and analysis first\u2026 You have only copy of one of them. One on FEB [Finance Evaluation Board] members and other on ACAO\u2019s\u2026<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                  Commentary: You should be checking back with me or making lists of your own\u2026<\/p>\n

Should talk with mechanics and drivers and see if 4 wheel drive is better or 2 wheel drive in town bearing in mind the argument of Stephen [Stephan Jones] and Al [Touchette] who should be in the discussion, with others who are knowledgeable.

                            SHOWERS \u2013 Phyllis Bloom reported that it will cost us about $37.50 to sanitize all of the floors in the showers in Jonestown for one year. It seems to be successful so far from tests we have taken.<\/p>\n

                            Safety \u2013 The safety report was called for \u2013 they are working on the PSU primarily at this time \u2013 no follow-up safety report given.<\/p>\n

                            Rolling barrel \u2013 The barrel formerly on the children’s playground and removed for safety reasons, has been converted to an incinerator for the medical department for burning infected rags, etc.<\/p>\n

                            Road \u2013 Have 35-40 logs in place and waiting for the rest to come out of the bush. Should be through with it this week. Plan to have done Sunday for sure. Going to put the work back on the sides so it won’t come off.<\/p>\n

                            Have gallon of the fence paint left<\/p>\n

                            Dump truck \u2013 Question whether or not we should try to get the dump truck from the ridge \u2013 we still need the fines and the lumber?. Wait and see no specific resolution at this time when Lee [Ingram] returns from Ridge.<\/p>\n

                            Landscaping \u2013 Got everything planted out and the plants that we gave out to individuals for yard beautification seem to have gotten planted in the cases I checked out, in the cottages. Have planters yet to do but must get some logs and topsoil for this. Have it scheduled. The front end of the place looks bad. We are out of materials to landscape with \u2013 we had not planned such a massive landscaping program and have used all we had, aid Gene.<\/p>\n

                             <\/p>\n

                            C-8-a-61b<\/p>\n

                            Messup\/Cleanup \u2013 Shirley mentioned that at some point we must discontinue the policy of messing up one area to clean up another\u2026 It is a major problem about the various areas in the central community \u2013 the tractors come through and make mush\u2026 the path gets fixed one place then another is messed up getting through to something else.<\/p>\n

                            Broken Furniture \u2013 Maryann [Casanova] is piling broken furniture under one of the dorms and Hugh [Hue] is asking why and who authorized it? Looks worse when they are trying to beautify. (Note: this item later handled and settled in Steering meeting of same date).<\/p>\n

                            Agric Tractors \u2013 How much travel of the Agric tractors across the road we are trying to fix up (path across field). They only need another 1\/2 load of soil and will have enough. J.R. said will still have to get diesel back and forth. If you roll by hand will mess up the barrels. There is also the issue of having to carry 250# bags of sugar on the backs of men \u2026 and heavy flour bags.<\/p>\n

                            C.T. suggested the kitchen organize their needs ahead of time so that he knows few days in advance, and he can arrange a daily delivery from the Cassava Mill so that they will not have to go through by tractors and other vehicles.<\/p>\n

                            Joyce said she can and will do this.<\/p>\n

                            Access Roads \u2013 If we can avoid the roads a few days will help greatly. If it looks nice when [Don] Freed arrives, felt the first impression is what lasts\u2026<\/p>\n

                            Mother [Marceline Jones] concerned men do not carry too heavy loads \u2013 all agreed. Better to even split heavy flour bags and have two men carrying 1\/2 bags rather than four trying to carry one\u2026 when it has to be done.<\/p>\n

                            Rodents \u2013 Have run out of rat poison. It has been about 3 weeks now and would again like to try the cats down there \u2013 it should be long enough now that the poisoned rats are not going to be around the poison the cats. We are losing about 38# rice per week \u2013 it is now going up to 150# said Jack [Beam]. We are sending down some of our barrels for the flour and the rice to be stored in to protect from the rodents. Will either have to use barrels for storage, or get sheet metal and make rodent-proof bins to keep them out of our supplies. We can probably hold them back with the cats, but no way can we get rid of them because they live in the bush and just come in to eat. Joyce commented that we should see that they get fresh milk daily, and are otherwise fed\u2026<\/p>\n

                            Lumber & Fines from Papaya \u2013 Went to Papaya today to transport some of the lumber to the train. Still have 4 loads of fines coming in. In the future must coordinate it to save our equipment.<\/p>\n

                            Change in farm schedule \u2013 Jack sees a very serious problem on the farm. Trying to operate with just one tractor. Must have the equipment, if need be, JUST SITTING so that when we need it can move it out. If we miss plow time through the rainy seasons, may cost us many weeks in our planting program.<\/p>\n

                             <\/p>\n

                            C-8-a-61c<\/p>\n

                            Weather and equipment have been against us, said Jack. Only the bananas are in. Got half the beans in, but must finish it out with peanuts.<\/p>\n

                            Now the land is able to be plowed. We have a very serious situation. In the gardens we have nothing to show \u2013 must tour the guests to bypass the gardens as they are not in good shape. Jack subsequently complained about the truck being used to go to the ridge.<\/p>\n

                            Caroline explained this was an emergency situation and the truck was taken for security\u2026 that in usual and future times our people do and will be taking the train. CT [Charlie Touchette] commented would probably be cheaper to take truck to pick up chickens than Land Rover as they have been gouging us badly on this. Lose too many chickens with other modes of transportation and the chickens are part of the farm. This trip today was used for combination, and was well utilized\u2026 WILL NOT BE USED FOR TAXI.<\/p>\n

                            Truck in town \u2013 It was pointed out that the truck in town IS BEING USED AS A TAXI\u2026 that the Bedford Van is down and when Sharon [Amos] needs to go places in a hurry has them take her in truck\u2026 Mother pointed out can get hired car on appointment basis from the day before\u2026 they will be there on time for you \u2013 should not wait to the last moment to call them anyway.<\/p>\n

                            RADIO MESSAGE TO GO INTO TOWN ON THIS.<\/p>\n

                            When the truck came out from town was showing poor maintenance on it\u2026 is using oil heavily and may already need a valve job\u2026 has been run without oil. Came out with no oil in crank case. Even the hydraulic system was out of oil. The $50 day we might gain is a very low amount for our investment and the price of labor and maintenance\u2026<\/p>\n

                            CT, Jack and others say 4 wheel best suited for here; Al [Touchette] and Steve [Stephan] Jones say the 4 wheel drive is better for the town than for here. CT says that unless we can send in a maintenance person \u2013 better bring them out here. Stephen said we have burned out engines here too and better get our maintenance people here on a better keel while we are at it.<\/p>\n

                            CT said when we have to take the truck over, might make $$ hauling from the ridge to Port Kaituma\u2026<\/p>\n

                            The Bedford Van in town down with throwout bearing\u2026<\/p>\n

                            RADIO PERSON ABSENT AT THIS POINT \u2013 RADIO PERSON IS TO BE IN THIS MEETING IN THE FUTURE\u2026<\/p>\n

                            Rotating People \u2013 Phyllis mentioned this will be a problem for medical with the appointment schedule they are keeping. Carolyn [Layton] several departments to keep in mind that the PR and others who rotate MUST GO IN\u2026 and will have to make appropriate adjustments in all departments. Please do not complain.<\/p>\n

                            INCENTIVE \u2013 Phyllis Bloom reported that they are having trouble getting people in the medical department to work overtime since the praises system is no longer around\u2026 they worked well for the extra treats, but she’s having trouble getting this now that the treats are discontinued.<\/p>\n

                            Lunch boxes \u2013 Joyce said that Maryann reports the lunchboxes are coming and now that the rule was made to lose a meal for not bringing them in and since they are on the check out schedule of farm.<\/p>\n

                            Wood at gate \u2013 Joyce reported sometimes they get down to the last piece of wood. She was to give them wood starting today, but they bypassed her. It came out Jack told Tim [Jones] that if you got the wood off the truck before it got to Joyce that it was in Jack’s bailiwick\u2026 Joyce suggests that they place their order for wood directly with Jackat one time for the entire week\u2026 and haul it out there. This was agreed to. Tim Jones responsible to place his order direct.<\/p>\n

                            Wheat and beans \u2013 Joyce mentioned objection to the wheat and beans order being placed in her absence and thought Tish manipulated it in rally, Caroline said it has already been reviewed and that Dad said to have analysts meet with the FEB and reevaluate the situation. Meeting was set for Tuesday morning 7:30 for all concerned to be present. Part is based on Shirley Field’s nutritional report, and new information that beans are very scarce in Guyana.<\/p>\n

                            Police item \u2013 Johnny [Jones] or Lee [Ingram] were to advise Ridge and\/or Kaituma police of the apparent attempt to sabotage our vehicles. Johnny did advise both law enforcement divisions.<\/p>\n

                            Stateside \u2013 Johnny reinforced his prior statement that all departments are to stop submitting stateside orders. FURTHER ALL DEPARTMENTS ARE TO BE DEVELOPING ALTERNATIVE SOURCES FROM WHICH TO BUY SUPPLIES.<\/p>\n

                            Inventories \u2013 [illegible word] of the list of inventories still incomplete. These are needed to be completed this week. All are to see Harold [below] if a problem doing this.<\/p>\n

                            Bathroom \u2013 Shirley objected to the squaring of the hole and the depth irregularities on the new bathroom. CT and other construction people advised the impossibility of squaring with the equipment we have \u2013 the boom will only reach 13 feet when it is on good ground. All agreed it will be okay as it is proceeding.<\/p>\n

                            Review Board \u2013 A review should be done of the things that are being sold down river \u2013 such as the caps and tape recorders. All agreed that we have at times gone too far. It is both a supply situation for us, and a morale situation at times. Finance Evaluation Board shall include this in their agenda and come up with suggestions on the issue. Possibly they should sit as review board since they get the ordering problems.<\/p>\n

                            PERSONNEL \u2013 Caroline once all departments to prepare personnel lists, 5 day week listing scheduled daily hours and total work, & brief skills<\/p>\n

                            1. The field people said they were told to leave the grass and brush around Dad’s place because the security was going to take care of this. Gene [Chaikin] mentioned that the path of citrus is just a hedge; we use rough lemon which is very thorny deliberately as security planting \u2013 Is this to be a hedge?<\/li>\n
                            2. Carolyn [Layton] feels that there is need to have a list of instructions for every plant you spray written down. ACAO should have a log on this.<\/li>\n
                            3. Senior Gardens\u2026 Johnny Jones said he “has mixed emotions about this”\u2026 He would hate to have this happen with all of this rain if we don’t plan on planting back there immediately. “Can also see the part about taking it out and doing it right\u2026 It would leave a big gap\u2026 And then there is the PR thing we use about planting every square is possible to food\u2026” (Recommending yank it up and plow and let it lay fallow for a while\u2026 Couple rows here and there”)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

Every ACAO who is responsible to see Harold [Cordell Bogue] or Tish [Leroy] to see that monthly cost-sheets are going into the accounting department. If the ACAO does not have the new costing set up started, they are responsible to do it. Jesse will be around on September 1 to see that the new systems are in operation. Carol, Tish, Jesse and Haroldwill personally come in and help you set up\u2026 But it must be in and functioning by September 1. One week later, tentative budgets will be figured for each department, and thereafter departments will have to function within those budgets \u2013 though they can request to<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                                    modify if they feel it is not reasonable. All departments are herewith requested to list (as many as possible) ways in which they can cut their departmental costs, and ways to reduce the labor necessary to operate their department.<\/p>\n

                                    These lists should be turned into the CAO\u2019s. All workers should be asked to turn in suggestions reducing costs and labor expenditure in their departments.<\/p>\n

CAO\u2019s might want to take this under advisement after hearing the recommendation of the ASSISTANT CAO\u2019s\u2026 However, an issue is at hand with the caps currently in the warehouse \u2013 Patty [Cartmell] once the mall, and the Central supply needs SOME for the field workers and those in the sun needing protection for their eyes and faces\u2026<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                                          Cosmetic Improvements \u2013 Question of what can be done with the third pole structure where we formally had the tents covering. Charlie [Touchette] suggested cover with aluminum \u2013 possibly add lights. It can be a quiet study area for the news. It is away and can be used also when we have guests that we want to be in another area from pavilion. CT [Charlie Touchette] would like Demos [Demosthenis Kutulas] to move 2 poles\u2026 If they got finished with the field tomorrow CT can do it.<\/p>\n

                                          Trash cans are an eyesore \u2013 decided to have Aurora [Rodriguez] from the kitchen make some paintings on them.<\/p>\n

                                          Medical appointments \u2013 Agric claimed medical not following through on giving preference appointments. One supervisor reported a person waiting 3 hours. It came out the workers were not there when their names were called, causing strain on medical having to reschedule them, etc. Must put discipline on the people who are running about when name called\u2026 Decision is to call their name out 3 times, and if not there \u2013 and not [illegible word] or valid excuse, just call [illegible initials] to pick them up. Mother [Marceline Jones] will look further into it from medical department end.<\/p>\n

                                           <\/p>\n

                                          C-8-a-66b<\/p>\n

                                          Beautification ideas \u2013 All are to look about and see what we can think of to beautify our town. Dad needs this done quickly and get the suggestions in right away. Turn them into the triumvirate at this point.<\/p>\n

                                          Sodium level \u2013 Mother wants supervisors to be alert as the energy level of workers should have changed considerably since they have added more salt to the diet. If there is still energy lag, let medical know it. Don’t let the workers know they are evaluating this<\/u>.<\/p>\n

                                          Cans in pig feed \u2013 James says they are separating \u2013 but apparently the cans get full, and they start looking for other places to put trash and use the pig feed cans or whatever is handy. We have moved the hog swill cans to another location in hopes of diverting the transgressors through the mud.<\/p>\n

                                          Lunch boxes not being returned \u2013 this causes hardship on crews. The supervisors often fail to bring in the boxes, so the crews don\u2019t get their lunches. Need to put penalty on offense. Make it a regular check-in item on the evening list \u2026 it is just like the other equipment: you miss a meal if not in on time\u2026 let them miss a meal if don’t check back in the lunch box.<\/p>\n

                                          Meantime, there are boxes setting up and around that should be picked up. Inspectors should be looking for these.<\/p>\n

                                          Wood at front gate \u2013 Joyce [Touchette] says they have been short of the word at gate and also short of food \u2013 not enough to cook for the 1000 people here. However, as of Monday, Mmay be able to send out wood. Not good for them to cook anyway, too much diarrhea and thought to be the utensils don’t get clean. Some clean up and some don’t.<\/p>\n

                                          EACH TEAM COMING ON SHOULD WRITE UP EVALUATION OF PRIOR TEAM. IF THE OFF-GOING TEAM LEAVES A MESS, THEY SHOULD BE WRITTEN UP FOR A WARNING.<\/p>\n

                                          Tractors to be scheduled out of Agriculture and trucks to be under CT not clear what they have worked out, but both CT and Jack [Beam] say they are satisfied, so issue dropped at this point. Since item was placed with CT for economy of planning, should at least have a report into CAO\u2019s to be sure still being done with best use of vehicles so there is coordination and saving of fuel consumption, etc. FARM SHOULD BE ADVISED, THEY WILL NOW BE CHARGED FULLY WITH THIS ADDITIONAL EXPENSE.<\/p>\n

                                          Security Check in \u2013 piggery & chickery: It cost us a great deal in production because generator went out and IS did not check on this because it had become the pattern of people down there to not-bother checking in. THIS IS DANGER TO SECURITY & MUST CHANGE. Therefore new rule shall be they must check in every 15 minutes; if they fail to do this by second check-in time (1\/2 hour) IS is to go down and check it out. If they just goofed and didn\u2019t check in will be automatic TRANSFER TO PSU. Warning should be given in Rally on this\u2026 This has been a serious problem.<\/p>\n

                                          Horn: Dad said okay on blowing the horn at noon and at quitting time, 6 or 6:30 as the condition calls for.<\/p>\n

                                           <\/p>\n

                                          ACAO 7 August 78<\/p>\n

                                          QUERY DAD \u2013 Suggestion was made that we might consider taking a 1\/2 hour lunch time every day, and quitting at 6:00 \u2013 many businesses stateside take only 1\/2 hour lunch. Johnny will ask on it.<\/p>\n

                                          Time: Time is a problem in Jonestown. Few have clocks and are always late to appointments as result. Consider a gong or bell system. DECISION REFER THIS TO STEERING [illegible words] FIRST. [Marginal note: “Steering”]<\/p>\n

                                          Security to announce the time in the morning: 6:00, 6:30 and 6:40 AM and again at 7:00 o’clock. They can get the radio time before [Mike] Prokes leaves \u2013 he will tell dispatch the correct time from radio.<\/p>\n

                                          Monitors: Not practical for IS to monitor. Only 2 rovers on at that time. Also people do not listen to seniors\u2026 and the noise level is too high WHEN THE NEWS IS ON. Johnny senior has an idea and will see what he can do\u2026 will report back.<\/p>\n

                                          Playground: the barrel has been removed until it can be repaired will get it fixed before the guests arrive. The fence has also been completed. Some complain it is a little crooked, but all agree it is RUSTIC and looks okay. Playground barrel will be done by the 13th.<\/p>\n

                                          Fences: Shirley Gieg is to come back with sample of the paint they are to use for the fences that must be painted. We do not want to paint fences in the future. Debate on nutmeg, vs green vs black. Decision, ask Nancy [Sines] to mix some colors and Shirley bring in the samples. Most of the [illegible initials] prefer the idea of nutmeg over the green. Will actually show less dirt, or so it was thought to be.<\/p>\n

                                          Colors: Jack suggested committee to approve colors. REFER TO SUE GRIMM AS IN A PUBLIC DECISION. [Marginal note: “Steering”]<\/p>\n

                                          Should not be done individually \u2013 refer to decorating committee. It was decided that we should recommend the steering that they add Nancy Sines and Rose Ruggerio to the decorating committee as color experts. Agreed. [Marginal note: “Steering”]<\/p>\n

                                          Bridge: The lower rail has been removed and upper has not been put on. Charlie says will be fixed by next meeting night.<\/u><\/p>\n

                                          HOUSE DRILL \u2013 Ava’s committee was to drill each house and dorm on 25 or so points dad gave in rally that should be directly coached and drilled into every person before guests arrive\u2026 They have done the apartments and have done about 27 of the cottages\u2026 are going cottage to cottage with it. She is working on it.<\/p>\n

                                          PURCHASES TO STOP \u2013 everything is going to be stopping soon on stateside purchasing. Inventories and budgets are a key to future buy-in. Harold [Cordell Bogue] turned in a memo on this. Medical is not in \u2013 they set in huge inventory of stuff and must integrate into their paper work. Will take another 3 weeks to get this completed. Kay [Nelson] has not done her inventories. Sewing can’t inventory until they<\/p>\n

                                           <\/p>\n

                                          C-8-a-66d<\/p>\n

                                          are into the new building where [they] have room for their material. (However, they can put down usage amounts as Tish [Leroy] advised Ruby [Carroll] directly how-to-do, and this was not being done. All advise next week on this.)<\/p>\n

                                          The mechanical parts and tools are not done, the heavy equipment inventory is not done like tractors, trucks, etc. Must get the forms ready \u2013 will have to have something to report on. [Marginal note: “Johnny”]<\/p>\n

                                          Kay\u2019s Dept: (The sewing factory has no way of inventory: incorrect \u2013 they can waive the material, and they can place it in categories [illegible word] on usage, they can use the yardage called for [several words illegible], that can be the material charge, and Ruby knows the stateside values on almost all of the materials. We can have someone in SF go out now and get prices on the “kinds” of fabrics, Tish and Ruby can make up a sample list. We can convert those prices to Georgetown money). This is comment by [several words illegible].<\/p>\n

                                          Kamaca: Kamaca refused to do an inventory. Say they can’t do it\u2026 Possibly DAD SHOULD BE ADVISED OF THIS.<\/p>\n

                                          Albatross and Cudjoe \u2013 no inventory yet. Richard [Janaro] should say [several words illegible]. Should have gotten an inventory when he got his purchase papers on the boat. This should be brought out here and priced out so put in dollar values. RADIO RICHARD TO [several words illegible] IT ALL OUT.<\/p>\n

                                          CASSAVA MILL CONDEMNED BY SAFETY COMMITTEE \u2013 CT [Charlie Touchette] doesn’t feel there is any greater danger than has ever been. The two accidents that happened for people who never should have been on the equipment and did not follow instructions. Further CT says he does not feel the equipment WILL EVEN BE FUNCTIONAL AFTER THE PROPOSED CHANGES ARE MADE \u2026 and will have to wait till after the guests leave and road is completely repaired before can even put the equipment on road to bring in the mill for the work\u2026 Farm maintains not dangerous if follow instructions.<\/p>\n

                                          Doug reported the second incident\u2026 Aaron [likely Erin Eichler], Doug and safety committee to be brought in on this. Decision to [several words illegible] issue to the analysts committee which meets [several words illegible]. Doug, safety committee [several words illegible] into the analysts meeting.

                                          TIRES SABOTAGED? Two tires on our trailers blew out at exactly the same place in town\u2026 When we told police before when we had trouble, it stopped\u2026 Both trailers went flat around the rock quarry, JOHNNY IS TO HANDLE IT IN TOWN, and remind that Johnny is also to talk to Jerry Smith at Aracaca re pastures.<\/p>\n
