arrival in Denver May 31st
I found an urgent message
from, NYA headquarters re-
questing me to telephone
Aubrey Williams, NYA ad-
ministrator in Washington.
"I am informed by Mr.
Williams that NYA finds it
unfeasible to continue the
agreement previously reached
with WRA and asks that we
immediately discontinue
sending evacuees to NYA
training centers. We have
no alternative but to fol-
low these instructions.

to fully ascertain the
reasons for cancellation
of the agreement. What-
ever its background this
is a great disappointment,

opportunity. You may be
assured that we shall res-
cue everything possible of
such alternative training
plans as may be worked
out."__________________________
