Mr.. Geo. NJ. Corlett,
Corlett & Corlett,
Monte Vista. Colorado.
Dear MIR. Corlett:-
On Tuesday evening. April gath,
1t our regular monthly membership
meeting, the motion unanimously
prevailed that secretary write a let
ter to each OF the attorneys asso-
ctAted In the recent consolidation
case, conveying to them and through
them to the communities which they
represented the sincere appreciation
for the important part each section
OF central. southern. western, and
southwestern Colorado took in the
case.
1t is most gratifying to our peo-
pie that there should be formed
such an effective body, cooperating
for the development OF the state. We
believe great good will come from
such complete presentation Of the
conditions. facilities. resources. etc.
OF our sections to the Interstate
Commerce Commission. We. believe
the prospects for the Improvement
OF our transportation facilities are
very good indeed.
With the hope that We may con-
tinue for all time this spirit Of close
cooperation. We remain,
Yours very truly,
