[[letterhead]] AFFILIATED WITH THE A. F. OF L. "SCHEDULE WITH SAFETY" AIR LINE PILOTS ASSOCIATION INTERNATIONAL 3145 WEST SIXTY-THIRD STREET CHICAGO 29 TELEPHONE GROVEHILL 6-2200 [[/letterhead]] October 5, 1949 Mr. Michael A. Gitt 39-01 Main Street Flushing, Long Island, New York Dear Mike: I have your letter of September 19 relating to the DC-4 training program. Unfortunately, I was wound up so tight in making the final argument in the National representation dispute case that I was forced to defer my other work temporarily. It was either this or take a chance of losing the most important case of the year. I understand, from one of the Headquarters people, that one of our local pilot representatives on Cdonial exercised the very poor judgement of giving one of your inter-Association letters to a company official. Call me when you receive this letter and we'll straighten out whatever appears to be off the runway. I also have another matter I would like to discuss with you at that time. Best personal regards. Sincerely yours, AIR LINE PILOTS ASSOCIATION [[signature]] David L. Behncke, President dlb/mh
