We thank you for your letter of sthr instant.

It had not examped us that the Sale of I.L.2070 seek

plans prior to the protest of the Architects in 1915, but we

think we were justified in kamusing that your letter of 26thr

June 1916 accepting their representations and promising that in

the future the word " design ・ should not be held to include

• height * would he held binding upon the devsriment retraspee«

alimt to meet the requirements of an intending losses, and sa

the line of roof is 10 or 15 feet below the laval of Kennedy

Read and almost entirely seremad by truan we do not see kor

they could be an eye sore - but of course that is a matter of

opinión - and is really boulds the question,
