              Dear Mr. Leopold: 
 
                       We have been endeavoring to work up a cooperative

              arrangement in this state to make it possible to carry on a

              state game survey of the type that you have been conducting
in 
              the northeentral states. Before working with the organizations

              that might be able to help us financially there are several

              things which we would like to know and upon which we would

              appreciate any information you could give us. 
 
              (1) The length of time it would take to cover Utah with a state

                    gam survey, 
              (2) The approxiamte amount of money such a survey would cost

                    divided into salary and traveling expenses, 
              (3) Who would be able to carry on the work--in other words,
who 
                    would you recommend for a project of this character?

 
                       It may be possible to carry on a state ame survey
with 
              the State Fish and Game Department, the Forest Service, and
the 
              state Experiment Station as cooperating agencies.  But before

              trying to organize the project it is necessary for us to have

              the information we are requesting of you and also any other

              pertinent information which you would be willing to give use

 
 
                                                    Sincerely yours,
