    Maroh 39, 1940, W 19-4 Mr, A. V. Dallas, Presidents Office, Omaha, Nebraska, Dear Mr* Dallas; We are in need of two new desks here in the offioe to replace two which have been in service a good many years, and I am writing yon with the thonght in mind that yon may know of some that are stored in Omaha, possibly shipped in from other points on the System. The two we now have in the offioe were taken from the original offioe of the Water Company in 1905, and have long since outlived their useful­ness. The typewriter desk particularly is badly scarred on the top surface and is very loose at the Joints, making it difficult to operate the typewriter. The other is a flat top offioe desk, and also shows considerable signs of wear. Both of them are a brown mraohuongdainngys coolfo rt,h e cloaffsihcien.g with the light colored sur­le would like to secure, first, a light oak colored typewriter desk, the usual 30 inches high and with a top surface about 50 by 33 inohes, with a solid desk surface, with a spring drop on left-hand side for the typewriter to fit into the left-hand panel where ordinary desks have a row of drawers, similar to those 1 have seen in various trainmastar*s offices, s The other (me we would like to have also in light oak color, 30 inches high, 33 inches wide and either 56 or 60 inohes long, with a row of drawers on left and right hand sides, so that we can enclose a map of o$r city water mains under a glass on the surface. If there is available a swivel office chair to match, it would also be very much appreciated*
