TO MAKE DRASTIC MANAGEMENT WILL DO UTMOST | TO HELP EMPLOYEES RELOCATE \u201cA significant change in the Company\u2019s type of operations will result in a substantial curtailment in manufacturing and marketing of basic chemicals and consequently lead to a substantial cut-back in personnel at the Valleyfield plant\u201d, is the way Dr.A.T.Knoppers, Acting President of Merck & Co., Limited last week-end announced that the greater part of the remaining 230 emplayees at the Merck plant in Valley- field will be layed-off in the next two or three months.It is explained that this is mainly due to a changing world market and the \u201cworsening competitive situation in the field of manufacturing & marketing basic chemicals used in the formulations of medicinals\u201d.Company officials in Vauley- field vwiu ie SUN that 1t magie De a week or ionger betore 14 18 exaclly known now many aug WIUCH employees will ne etrecc- ed by tals latest and inal plow lo Merexs once thriving Valley- fieid pl.at, What is actually happening 1s tha.meres wm Vaueyfield wi.no longer manwaciure put wid ai- DIS and package the raw ma Leisals It WLUL receive from elsewhere.ror this purpose only a small number oi empioyces wil be necessary., Dr._Knoppers explained the necessity or the severe cut-back as being for reasons beyond the Company s control ana ths s1- lualion has grown to the point especlally in Canada where the Company cannot continue to produce most of the chemicals witn- out substantial {financial losses and the consequent endangering of the future of Merck and Co.Limited and ail its employees.In explanation of the mecha- nies of effecting the change over the next few months, Dr, Knop- bers emphasized that while substantial cut-backs in personne! at Valleyfield will be iorcea upou the Company by the adjus.ments necessary to meet the competitive situation, the Company will make every effort to assist individual employees in the resultant problems.In a leiter of explanation t, all employees the acting President of Merck and Co.goes on as follows: Two years ago the parent Cor- Poration\u2019s management spent considerable time in making an exhaustive study and analysis of the Canadian operations.Since then it has continued a close watch on these operations in the hope that some important improvement might occur.However, as time went on, the future of Merck and Co.Limited in the business of basic medicinal chemicals appeared more doubtful than ever.While the situation is especially acute in Canada, it is not peculiar to Canada.It exists in a number of other world markets, and is largely caused by the foreign low cost products which are exported to world markets at prices far below prices in their own coun tries.In view of the changing picture of the Company\u2019s business and because of the common problems of Canada with other markets, the parent company recently transferred the Canadian subsidiary into the organization of its International Division.Along with this action it was necessary to make an immediate up-to-date study of the Canadian operations as a supplement to the one made two years ag, This study followed some substantial cut-backs in personnel which were made necessary in the past two years by the conditions described.(Continued on page 2) BÉAUHARNOIS, QUE.WEDNESDAY, APRIL 27, 1960 Valleyfield\u2019s finest cleaners Ph.: FR.3-2855 B'nois: CO-8-3801 PRICE : 5 CENTS \u2014 PER YEAR $2.25 PANY The Merck and Co.Ltd.plant in Valleyfield as seen from the side of the Railway track and the water tower.The plant was built shortly after the war.Photo - Peter Rozon} IONE BYLAY/ AMENDED.GARBAGE DISCUSSIONS WITH INDUSTRIES At last Mondays meeting of the Cily council the Zoning Bylaw was amended to allow the construction of an office building on the corner of Jacques Cartier and St.Jean Baptiste streets.À meeting of some 125 property owners in the zone concerned will be held at the city hall at 8 pm.on May 16th.\u2014_\u2014 The bylaw to amend the market regulations in Valleyfield was passed in first reading.The law would provide for an annual fee of $25.00 and $1.00 for each day that the farmer uses his alloted place.Already more than ed as farmers are anxious half of the space has been rent- to keep their place on the market.Alderman C.Pilon was elec:- ed acting mayor for the next three months.The council sold an old mechanical shovel to E.Montpetit où Melocheville for $4,000.City manager A.Lafontaine was given authorisation to at tend the Municipal finance association conference in St.Adele ac the beginning of next month.Richer Frere bottlers for Pepsi Cola were given a preference to buy a number of lois of (Continued on page 3) This car was pulled out of the Soulanges Canal las?week Tuesday p.m.near Coteau du lac a few miles bers and teachers from Valley: from Valleyfield.The car had been in the water since December of last year and the bodies of 4 field, Beauharnois and Chateau- negro entertainers missed since that time had been found a week earlier.Charlebois from Valleyfield who helped bring the car to the surface.(Photo - Peter Rozon) Joint Teachers and School Board Conference A joint conference of leach- ers and School Board members is to take place in Sherbrooke on May 6th and 7ih.Meeting in combined session will be the Que.Associaiion of Protestant Senvul Administrators (Q.AP.S.A.) lur- merly \u201cThe High School Princr- pals\u2019 Association\u201d and the Quebec Association of Protestant School Boards (Q.A.P.5.B.)
