Your letter of the 21th ultimo wan

write me a letter giving tho reasons
why the department changed Its

between Snyder nnjl Ira and stating
whether or not I had anything to do

H-iise of Itepreneutatlves
My dear Mr. Smith:
With reference to your personnl
call at the r)epartment today whenyou made inquiry concerning the
propoHition tn establishpervlcj on a
route from Ira by Knap to Durham
and nnother from Irn to Hnyder
reluming by Dunn to Ira Texas I
beR to Inform you that this matter
was carefully considered in March
lull and advertisements were Is-
sued Inviting proposals for rnrrylnr
the malls on the routes mentioned
'I lie loweft bids received In response
to the advertisements were defective
and as protests of Dunn patrons were
rMihmitted and the chances proposed
would linolve an Inrrenne In cost of
operation over the existing service
of about $htOO per annum. It wn
decided (o make no award of con-
tract but to continue the service as
then and now arranged. This con-
clunlon was based on the facts as
above stated and not becnune of any
recommendation made by you. The
files relaMng to tho rase show that
no recommendation whatever wnn
tnnde by you In the matter.
Sincerely yours
