Protection of Grounds around Spring and Well: Las Vegas - June 2nd, 1936. R-11 Mr. R. L. Adamson, Chief Engineer. Los Angeles, Calif. Dear Sir: At the freight house this morning I observed a standard sign reading: TRESPASSING FORBIDDEN UNION PACIFIC R R Co. This sign is approximately 18 inches by 4 feet and I would like very much to secure six of them for use around the springs and well, which are arranging to have enclosed by a fence. Will you kindly arrange to aecure and ship to me six of these, and if possible they should be made of sheet iron to prevent their destruction. Yours truly,
