LOS ANGELES, March 5, 1948 174*21111 Mr. J, A. Bennewitz: Your letter of March 2nd, your file A-627; I appreciate your views in this matter. However, in connection with the subject of your letter, I think these particular documents really relate to Union Pacific current business. §As you know, this land is owned by the Union Pacific, and the water is owned by the Union Pacific and sold to the Water Company, although legally appropriated by the Water Company. This water is,7 to a large extent, brought down to the meter at the railroad tracks in pipes owned by the Union Pacific and delivered to the Water Company for local distribution for domestic purposes. However, a part of this water is sold by the Union Pacific to some of its lessees on railroad property, and has been, in some instances, used to supplement the water furnished our shops where the well of a shop grounds has not been sufficient. I presume that In the future all correspondence and documents relating solely to transactions between either the Water Company or the Warehouse -Company and outsiders should be transmitted by United States Mall. - E. E. Bennett EEBmr
