letter of recent date , the Executive Committee of the School

made in the resolution, as will appear from the copy enclosed 
herewith * It was the feeling of the Committee that , being 
on the ground and the person most deeply concerned In the 
project set forth in the resolution, you are better able than 
any one else to determine the steps to be taken.

quiry which were considered by the Committee which agreed 
that at your convenience it will be glad to be favored with 
such information as you may be able to give relating thereto;

the anthropological collections * without involving 
undue expense, litigation, or opposition?
