The materials from a 1980 September 18 letter from Mr. B. Inoue with information regarding Sumitomo Electric Industries (SEI) and the Deming prize. Inoue discusses SEI and its utilization of quality control and the role of foremen to the organization. The letter includes a graph and evidence. The evidence page contains original handwritten notes on the upper, right corner. The letter contains notes and markings by Kenneth Hopper. The press articles and statement were not digitized. The materials probably belong to the letter dated 1980 September 19 from Inoue to Hopper.
