Dear Sir:
Re:- Catalogue No. 279,
245 Union Street,
Lots 18, 19 & 20/20/196
We are in receipt of your letter of February 21st. This has been carefully read and we can appreciate that the disposal of your properties is a matter of great personal concern to you. However the sale of all Japanese owned properties is being carried out as part of the policy of liquidation outlined by the Canadian Government on the basis of independently appraised values and we can only advise that we are unable to consider any alternative.
While we regret that you are not in accord with the Custodian's action, completion of this sale is being made, irrespective of production of the Certificate of Title. The Custodian however finds its production helpful in making distribution of the proceeds of the sale to the rightful persons.
If you now feel that you care to cooperate in this matter, we would be glad to receive the Certificate of Title as previously requested. In any event your letter is being placed on our files so that your comments in regard to the sale will remain on record.
Yours truly,
George Peters,
Administration Department.
