Johnson Gentlemen: This will acknowledge and thank you for your letter January 29th regarding various sizes of Cast Iron Pipe we will require for water sain extensions in Las Vegas in the near, future.

In phone conversa­tion with our Purchasing Agent*s office at Lob Angeles I am advised that they expect to place the requisition tomorrow, February 1st. It would not assist us any to have the 6s and 8* pipe ahead of the other as the job starts with the 12s and we would like to have the 12" first. I have therefore asked Mr. Keeble to mark the order "Assemble and Hold* so the 12* pipe and fittings (especially the 16* Wye Branch and 16* Over­sleeve) can be sent ue February 21st or thereabout. I will contact you by telephone before that time so our gang will be organized to receive it. As on our previous shipments, please be sure the pipe is loaded on flat cars for convenience in unloading at Las Vegas. Yours very truly, WALTER H. BHACfffei?
