Dear Sir:

A recent United Press release by Emily R. Svellis mentioned your project.

It was visible long enough to have counted, but the general overall dimensions and construction were so unusual I'm afraid I didn't think on a scientific basis.

Dear Sir:

Thank you for acknowledging the sketch submitted. Since you state similar sketches submitted have been determined as advertising banners, I will accept this evaluation.

Thank you for your consideration.

Sincerely,
