Dear

Frankly, I need your advice on a matter of great concern
to the employees at the local manufacturing facility.  It
seems the constant rumors of a corporate takeover are
filtering down to the general work force, and the loyalty
may soon falter.  I have heard of some employees submitting
their applications to our competitors.  This could create
problems if not dealt with now.

I feel obliged to make some sort of official statement to
the employees and hope for your guidance as to the content
thereof.

I would be most grateful for your thoughts and advice on
this most sensitive matter.
