I am in agreement with your suggestion that,until we are in a position to substantiate the correctness of manifest weights,that settlement be made with the national Harbours Board on basis claimed by them. The difference subject to investigation is $27.08 which amount you may authorize agent to place outstanding in the meantime. In regard to the weight short billed which you advise involves approximately §1800.00,this should be looked into at once. Considerable time has already elapsed in the endeavour to have the amount cleared up and further delay will only result in complicating the investigation. Will you please get in touch with our Foreign Freight Agent as soon as possible and co-operate with him in a prompt investigation of the weight submitted to us by IP.P.Dow & co. As already stated this weight question has been under way too long,and the Company's revenue is placed in jeopardy. The importance of this matter demands that your entire time be devoted to it,therefore,do not engage in any obher work without my permission.
