Show September 21, 1971 Record Mexico Miss Irls Sanford 1907 - 30th Avenue San Francisco, California Dear Iris: In connection with the special investigation on Mexico, we have one or two documents of the Comision de Fomento Minero that require translating. We have attempted to reach you by telephone for the past two days without success. Does this mean that you have taken a new job somewhere in San Francisco? I hope not because of your expressed desire to retire and travel. I can hold up on placing the translation for a couple of days. However, if I do not hear from you by the end of the week, we will assume that you are away and will be forced to start looking around for someone to do the translation. As usual, we have a deadline to meet. Best regards and I hope you are fine. Sincerely, Weston Bourret Vice President WB:f |
