                Dear Mr. Leopold: 
 
                       We were very glad to receive your letter of August
13 
                recommending still another man who would be cczpetent to
handle 
                a game survey project. 
 
                       While talking over a program of game work with Director

                Cardon of the Experiment Station, the point was brought up
by 
                the Director that financial conditions in his work are becoming

                quite bad and that he does not feel that it would be good
policy 
                to inaugurate any game projects during this period of financial

                depression. However, he is very much interested in this type
of 
                work and we are still gathering all the information possible
so 
                that when things open up we can go forward on perhaps a game
survey 
                and a regional study of the sage hen. 
 
                       Your kind help is greatly appreciated and you may
be sure 
                that we will be pleased to have any suggestions or help that
you 
                may be able to furnish. 
 
                                                      Sincerely yours,
