Dear Mr. Dorseyt 
I am forwarding herewith an esqpense account for $126.68 
covering items incurred during «y recent work in Costa Rica 
that cannot be met under my letter of authorization for 
governmental funds. I beg to ask. therefore* that this amount 
be covered from the allotment of |l,0CX3 for travel in the field 
under the program approved by the Secretary for the year con¬ 
cerned.

I may explain that the expense in Panama covered a visit 
to Barro Colorado Island to examine the biological laboratory 
tt»re and the conditions under which it operates. The e 3 q)endlture 
at Puerto Barrios, Guatemala covered a trip to examine the 
archeological site at Quirigua which it has been important for 
me to see. 
T ■' 4 'L 
The amount of this account should be credited against the 
advance of $1^000 made to me by the Smithsonian Institution for 
the field work in Costa Rica. My other accounts are now con^slete 
and I shall eoqpect to adjust this entire matter soon. 
Very truly yours. 
A. Wetmore, 
Assistant Secretary.
