their work such as the other enrollees are.
These four students were:
Mr. Bill Adams

Bec use of this spacial circumstance regarding the comnensation
of these four individuals, I advised Mr, Sam Williams to have them
execute some written memoranda certifying that they did work during
this period and for Mr. Williams to compleée a miscellaneous

requisition for the four checks. These documents relating to

Mr. Ba Adams and Mr. Whelan have been forwarded to your office.
Those for Mr. Dash and Mr. Speer will follow shortly.

I am complegely aware that this arrargment xaxne does not conform

to generally accepted ways of doing thines for the city. Peécetunataly,

quleve”,
We came upon the scene after the fact, and these arreemants were

alee ad Prov ded
already made and these individuals have eoneelbuted their services

For whatever it 15 worth
