The company is engaged wholly, in the compression and transfer molding of thermo-setting synthetic resin plastics, such as at that Net -V. time, as Bakelite, Beetle, Plaskon, Melmac, and others of similar nature. Its is principally the custom molding of such plastics to cus¬ tomers' orders, designs, and specifications.
