    Mr. W. K. House -2- 9/30/52 to any other interpretation. I think I will get by with it. We then discussed the contract we are working on for the removal of the two main transmission lines and power lines. Mr. Montgomery, speaking for the District, stated that it was their intention, assuming the bonds were voted and sold, to immediately construct a new pipe line along the section line he suggested and remove the existing pipe line and power lines. He suggested, there­fore, that the proposed agreement be modified by providing that the right of the Union Pacific to remove these pipe lines at the expense of the District would not accrue until two years after the date of the contract, to which I agreed. The District also felt that we should make no charge for the easements which we are furnishing them, other than a nominal charge, and 1 went along with that subject to Mr. Reinhardt’s approval, which he has given. They likewise agreed to the provision in the contract - which I have not heretofore referred to in correspondence with you - to the effect that they would impound |1250 a month for a period of twenty years, or unless utilised as provided in the contract, which sum would be turned over to the Railroad Company in the event it removed the pipe line and which sum would continue to be paid to the Railroad Company until the total cost of removal was received by the Railroad Company. Mr. McNamee Is to furnish me a draft of a new or amended proposal and a draft of the contract as revised and the matter will be further considered. Mr. Reinhardt notified Mr. Campbell, the President of the District, that their offer had been accepted subject to working out of the details in the new proposal and in the contract. 1. E. Bennett
