Mr. Shotaro YAMAKAMI,
Reg. No. 11598,
Roseberry, B. C.
Dear Sir:
We are in receipt of your letter dated February 3rd which was received by us yesterday, the 8th instant. You refer to the Dry Cleaning and Dressmaking Equipment at 706 Broadway West, Vancouver, which has been sold by us, but you are aware from our letter of January 26th that the cleaning and pressing equipment at 2046 W. 4th Avenue, Vancouver, has also been sold although you did not mention this equipment in your letter.
Your letter has been carefully read and we can appreciate that the disposal of the equipment in question is a matter of personal concern to you. However, the sale of equipment and chattels is being carried out as a part of the policy of liquidation outlined by the Canadian Government on the basis of independent appraised values, and we can only advise that we are unable to consider any alternative. Your letter, however, is being placed on our file so that your comments regarding the sale of your equipment will remain on record.
In our letter of January 26th above-mentioned and in our letter of February 6th, full details were given you of the sales made and a statement of your account in detail has been sent to you.
Commencing with the month of March your monthly remittance was increased from $12.00 to $60.00 after consultation with the B. C. Security Commission, and we regret that we are unable to forward you, as you requested, the total funds standing to your credit until we have again been in touch with the B. C. Security Commission to obtain their views. If we do not hear from the above Commission before we prepare your April cheque you will understand why we have forwarded you a further remittance of $60.00.
Yours truly,
[Signed]
