    FORM I5d6 Standard 11-30-2,000 UNION PACIFIC SYSTEM UNION PACIFIC RAILROAD COMPANY OREGON SHORT LINE RAILROAD COMPANY OREGON-WASHINGTON RAILROAD & NAVIGATION COMPANY LOS ANGELES & SALT LAKE RAILROAD COMPANY DEPARTMENT OF TRAFFIC R. B. ROBERTSON ASSISTANT TRAFFIC MANAGER PACIFIC ELECTRIC BUILDING LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA May 28 th, 1951, File A- Mr. Walter R. Bracken, Las Vegas, Nevada. My dear Walter: Two gentlemen called on me this morning and stated they had purchased a triangular piece of property along our tracks north of the city and that conveyance of the deeds would be made today* They stated further that the purchase of this property was made for the purpose of locating Block 16 thereon. They wanted to know - first, if we would object to their landscaping the triangular piece across the street Immediately south in order to beautify that neighborhood — and, second, if we would be willing: to lease them, for a term of years, a part of the property facing the highway and adjoining their triangular piece on a part of which they desire to build a small hotel. I told them this matter would have to be discussed with you and that nothing world be done in the matter without your recommenda­tion. The purpose of this letter is to put you on your guard against possible contrary statements by the gentlemen in question.
