1. ow, a s ortage of file equipment still exists in the Agency, and we are
n
attempting to release as many safes as possible for reassigrient and reissue. The
President has also extended his moratorium on the purchase of file equipment, and
this makes it even more essential that we better utilize the equipment we have.
2. If any Offices within your component are now storing unclassified catalogs, bound
reports, supplies, forms, periodicals, and other materials in active file equipment, or
in supply cabinets which occupy valuable office spaco, you may be interested in a new
type of equipment which may be mounted on the top of filing cabinets or safe-files.
3. The attached brochure from the General Fireproofing Company illustrates this new
type of over-file storage cabinets. And while this company is not the only supplier
of this equipment,, this brochure was one immediately available; so, we are sending it
to you as a matter of general information. Also, we have a piece of this equipment on
display in Room 702, Magazine Building, which you may see at any time.
4. I would appreciate your comments as to the utility or other aspects of the over-file
storage cabinet idea. If you are interested in obtaining mo information about this
type equipment, let us know. If you are interested in oc ment, you should
contact us for assistance. 2541

OTR schools and staffs have been contacted regarding the possible use of the new
type of over-file storage cabinets. Our collective feeling is that we have no
practical use for them at this time.
