I am afraid that I am going to fail in this matter for I have no way of obtaining adequate information to reply to it unless you can get Frank Currie to give me the information which I need.

This is evi- denced by the fact that the Currie Engineering Re- port estimates that the City bond issue may be paid off in 13 years. However, regardless of this fact, it is going to be necessary for us to obtain from Frank Currie sufficient information in order to intelligently answer Mr. O'Dell. I do not know whether the proper approach is direct, as I have done, or whether the City Adm. Officer's assis- tance should be enlisted in having Mr. Currie provide the information."
