Dear Dr. Stearns:
The month in which the experiment with Mr. Tu was to have been made has now passed, and we think you will be interested in the report of what has occurred.
We are somewhat encouraged. The method devised seems to have brought some result. Mr. Tu has worked in accordance with the regulations devised, and though he found it difficult at first, he adapted himself quite readily as time went on.
At first it was my inclination to give you a resume of the report submitted by his Department Head - who has Mr. Tu in direct charge - but I believe it would be more to the point if I sent you an actual copy of the report itself. This is enclosed, and from it you will notice how very detailed has been the supervision to which Mr. Tu has been subjected during this probationary month.
I have discussed this report with Mr. Tu and have told him that it is being forwarded to you. It is my belief that he is somewhat impressed by his own progress, and if the system is continued, there is likelihood that it might bring the result which is desired. At least, we believe it to be promising enough to warrant a continuance, and we shall proceed in accordance with the same schedule unless you deem it wise that we change.
Sincerely yours,
Vice President
