m o ?╟≤H | o ?║ N Pj o a* OJ J>> ft HIGHWAY 91 ?╟≤ LAS VEGAS, NEVADA ?╟≤ TELEPHONE 7100 July 6, 1956 TO OUR SANDS RESERVATIONS ?╟÷ We are even more disappointed than you in not being able to accommodate you at the Sands today after having confirmed your reservation ?╟÷- but we believe you should know that there is a definite and urgent reason. The Sands has been asked by Washington to accommodate the Congressional Committee investigating the unfortunate airliner accident in the Grand Canyon last week, and we will be T^ead- quarters for the hearings to be held tonight, Saturday and Sunday. We believe this matter to be so urgent and vital to the future safety and comfort of American travelers like yourself that we are putting the complete facilities of the Sands at the disposal of the Congressional Committee for this important job. We trust you will bear with us in this emergency.
