When passing through Las Vegas on March 15 enroute East, Mr. Bracken informed me that Mr. Russell desired to withdraw his application to purchase this land on account of being obliged to leave Las Vegas, and that it was now desired to sell this property to Mr. W. E. Hawkins. Please, therefore, have contract changed accordingly and when executed by Mr. Hawkins send it to me for further attention* You understand, of course, that the sale of this land is subject to formal authorization by the Executive Committee. Yours truly, CC-Mr. W. R. Bracken . .11 S
