mation is of more than usual significance.

Please tell us in detail what you can about
this applicant. For your convenience we have enclosed a
form which covers the essential items upon which information
is desired. It would contribute to our appraisal of the »

on the enclosed sheet.

A return envelope is enclosed. Your reply
Will be kept in strictest confidence and will have an impor-
tant bearing on the final decision. Please accept our thanks

Very truly yours,
