up in Committee, where it is difficult to discuss the

somewhat knotty points involved.

We should like to dis-

cuss whatever points in it may strike you as requiring

explanation and if we can reach agreement we would propose

to embody the results in Resolutions to be recorded in the

Minutes of Monday's meeting, so that decision between the

rival claims of the houses offering may be taken with

a clear idea of what that decision entails.

making these inroads on your time, but I know you share

my desire to see the whole question of the Extension

satisfactorily settled.

Yours sincerely,

(sgd) M. Stewart.
