Show 5 June 1972 Mr. A. I. Rodrigues 5845 Pentz Road Paradise, California 95969 Dear Al: Many thanks for your letter of May 27 and Translation of Article 27, concerning Constitutional Law of Mineral Resources and Special Concessions. Me are in complete agreement with you about making no approach to the government at the present time. Also, I know you are aware from our conversation that no such approach has been made, or employed in any way. Our present favored inclination is to associate ourselves with a reputable and well-estabilshed Mexican financial institution such as an investment banking group. But before considering an old conser-vative banking group, we must secure recommendations from our Execu-tive Committee. This morning I approved your statement and expense account, so within a week or two you should be receiving your check. With best regards and many thanks for your generous assistance. Sincerely yours, Weston Bourret Vice President WB/nam Attachment |
