Dear ?Ir. V/etmore; 
I am sorry to learn from your telegram of this morning that you 
have lost your assistaiat on acooxmt of National Guard mobilization, 
Messrs. Hood and Mabbot have gone with the District National Guard. 
Just at present it does not look as if our appropriation bill 
will pass before July 1, so tiiat we will be obliged to work in July, 
prior to the signing of the bill, on a monthly allotment on the basis 
of this year’s appropriation, which would give you for your salary and 
all other expenses about f|415. 
While you aro in Salt Lake City, I hope you will see Ilr. Chambers 
and encourage, if necessary, the plan to do away with the sale of game 
and the elimination of sink box shooting in the region. 
ith kind regards. 
I am. 
truly ycfurs.
