Second South Sell le ke City, Utah due to two reasons; bUsineso has been poor alone the expel'ienced last winter and because of the "recession" which has had an effect on the abil1 ty or wiLingness of small businessmen to spend money they do not absolutely have to spend. Rather than h ~ve this Cavalcade this spring with only few !:lembero of the Association taking part, probably no one from south of the Utah - Arizona border, 've felt it would be better to postpone the trip around Alberta'S Scenic Circle for a year. \7e could posaibly have the trip in June of 1959 or a3k the Association to hold the 1959 convention in Alberta and combine the trip wi~h it. May I take this opportunity to thank all of you for the help you have given in the preparation of the planned Cavalcade and may expressrthe hope that I may call upon you again at some future time for help when this International Goodwill Tour would have a better chance of success.

I attempted to reach you by phmne to verifi this date , ot t own, 1 00 sultod wfth Charlie • • 9 a result , a mail ballot has boen conduoted among the Direotors , and the date and locale has been approved. and as you were out Now that Livingston is to have the Convention , I must tell you very f rankly that the matter of whether or not it will be suocess or a disaster will depend entirely upon the a.count ot hard Vlor~ Livingston tollm are willing to do . beoause unless a bout 90% ot financial suppert oan be secured in the Livingston-Gardiner' area it will be just that . I usa tho word (I dl6aster lf Due to distanoes and travel time involved , we have never been able to draw more than jus; a handful ot delegates from areas more than 100 miles distant tr~ the Convention oity . Practioally none ot these !clegates , except the otficers QUd directors will send in advance ressrvations , so Vie have no dependable idea as to just how many to expeot until the day a rrives . It ther eforo beoomes necessary for enoueh banquet tickets to be sold locally to underwrite the , expenses of~the ontire Convention . This year in particular due to~he fact that I have devoted praotically all of my efforts to selling spaoe in the brochure, rather than memberships , the Corp . trel1sur,r,-is depleted to the pollnt where it would be 1m ossible for the association to " pay ott" in the event that the Convention oannot be medee selt supporting . I am sure you ,vill agree that this situation would be "disastorouH �Deane li ley Page 2 It is not purpose to discourage you , Deane . I feel confident tha; we cnn have a fine Convention in LiVingston , but I felt that you should have a claar statement ot the problems involved .

Got tiokets printed , adding at l east a dollar profit or more , if you feel it is pra ctioa l . This profit t o cover misoelaneous Convention expenses , yOU? guests , etc . Get a good aotive oomcittee out selling t hese tickets i n Livings t on a nd Gard i ner . Also try to g st a dvance sales in Great ?aIls , Choteau , hite Sulphur Springs . W In addition to the ·profit· on the banquet tiokets , I would sugeest a Registration Feo of . 2 . 00 for each membe r delecate ••• that is , ono fee per vote . Each member sh&p is entitled to only one vote . Far example i n the csse of Char lie there wo uld be only one feo ••• s .Martib would not have to pay this registration foe . You and Charl ie will act a8 co-chairmen for the Convention , a nd enlist hel p i n the form of co~ ttee membe rs ss you Bee fit . It will be up to you to arrange the banquet program, speakers , and any s uch entertal ant as you Can afford and see fmi t .

Eleven of them a re delinquent for past the 60 days graoe period , and are the~ole no longer "legal" members . If they we re to pay their baok dues no ~ most of them would have another $ 15 . 00 to pay in a few months , because their membershi ps •• ould be due again . The best thing to do in a case like this , is to sll~t them off again as a "new member" . You "ill note that on each of these eleven bills , I have ohanged tbe dates to be effective fram Jan., 1958 to Jan ., 1959 • This will also have an ad ~antage , as winter Is probably a bet~er time of year for them to pay out money . We oannot aftord to loose these members . so I urge ypu to 1Iontact them. ... , and see if you oan re- sell them on the above basis . The deadline for the ,linter lJembership Roster ie January 1 , and i t you ' re able to get them baok"in the fo ld" their names oan be listed, and your Club Vlill also receive the refund . The other four bills are on members who are ourrently due (with the ~m. exoeption of Safeway) I did not think it would make any differenoe to Safewny when thdir membership was due .

Main Street Salt Lake City I, Utah Gentlemen : The three flags rented by this Association in oonneotion with its Convention at Afton have been ahipped to you prepaid today via M & N Truok Lines . In ordering theso tlags over lons distanoe telephone , I explained to Io!r . Latimer that we had used them last year in connection with our Convention at Kanab , Utah and would take them again this yoar provided we could be given the Sal!le proposition . Last year I explained to Mr . Allen that while our oonvention was aotually only a three- day attair it was necessary tor l!le to leave for the Convention Oity several days ahead of the meeting and a lso that I could not return to Salt Lake until several days after the meeting was over . Mr . Allen agreed not to charge us for the aotual t1llle the tlags were in our posseosion and only billed us tor ths three days they were aotually in use . Praotioally the Sal!le condition existed this year . It was neoessary t o have the flags shipped far enough ahead of time to be here for the opening ot our convention on Ootober 6th and whil e the convention was over on the 8th I al!l not yet in a position to come to 3alt Lake to return them personally and have therefore shipped them . The flags were rented oontingent upon rental being paid only for the three days during whioh they were actually - �Salt Lake Costume Co . Page 2 in use pluss express oharges both waye .

Sinoerely yours , Martin H. Cantwell Exeoutive Seoretary MHC : pth , �February 6, 1954 ~ I>ly dear dongrcssman: I am writing to you to urge your support for the Echo Park Dam and for the Colorado River Stcrage Project . The Echo Park Dam is of vital importcnce to the entire developme~t in the Upper Basin state~ of Colorado, Utah, Wyo~ ng a~~ New Nexico. If these st ates are to use their ~t.are of the water in the Colorado Ri'rer, these dams must be const : . ..h:ted . Contrary to propaganda published by the c')nservatiortists, there are no alternate dum sites which are comparable to Echo Park . In 1936 the National Park Service guaranteed to the people that if it were necessary in the future, dams could be constructed in Dinosaur National MonumE:nt. For these reasons and many more, I urge your vigorous support for Echo Park Dam. Respectfully yours , � Text A resource consisting primarily of words for reading.
