Aso, Managing Director, Aso Coal Mining Co. Ltd., of Japan, i,rho is in this country studying American mining methods. While his mine apparently works on longl·rall, he is particularly interested in using Duckbills for entry driving. Apparently he has some side pitch just as you do. He is going to be in Denver in about a week and would very much like to visit one or more of your mines from Rook Springs. You have been so cooperative in the matter of these visitors in the past that we feel no hesitation in asking if you would again be kind enough to permit this young man to see some of your fine installations. If this is agreeable, would you be good enough to let us know immediately and advise if we should give him a letter of introduction to Mr. Livingston or some other official designated by yourself? With kindest regards. Yours very truly, /s/ Lionel Farr Sales Engineer �NO. 3 �.,. .,·.
