After the yard manager receives an OKed Recommend. it is then necessary for him to keep it up to date. Unless he does so it is worthless. The manager is responsible for its correctness at aII times. If the court house reports show that d.oeuments have been filed whioh change the rating the Credit Department must be notified at once. This change is then made on the Recommend.

In this manner local sales managers have a complete and up-to-date list of every customer who is entitled to credit in his community.

If his list is not complete it is not fair to his customers.

Neither is it fair to the company.

'We might. say, too, that it is unfair to the manager, because it robs him of his chance for making a satisfactory showing as a yard manager.

That is why it is interesting to go out into the fiIes of the Division Auditors and check up the number of Approved Crettit Ratings on file at each yard.
