TO THE HONORABLE SECRETARY OF THE AIR FORCE:

FURTHER REFERENCE IS MADE TO OUR LETTER OF SEPTEMBER 21, 1953, TO YOU, RELATIVE TO THE CLAIM OF DAILEY AND HOLIFIELD FOR $1,863.02 UNDER CONTRACT NO. AF 41/290/-54, DATED DECEMBER 20, 1950.

ON OR ABOUT OCTOBER 6, 1955, WE RECEIVED INFORMAL ADVICE FROM THE RECORDER, AIR FORCE PANEL, ARMED SERVICES BOARD OF CONTRACT APPEALS, THAT A DECISION HAD BEEN RENDERED BY THE BOARD IN CONNECTION WITH THE CONTRACTOR'S APPEAL (DESIGNATED ASBCA NO. 2559) FROM THE CONTRACTING OFFICER'S DECISION IN THE MATTER AND THAT SUCH DECISION SHOULD BE PUBLISHED WITHIN APPROXIMATELY TEN DAYS.

AS STATED IN OUR LETTER OF SEPTEMBER 21, 1953, CONGRESSMAN PAUL J. KILDAY HAS REQUESTED THAT WE ADVISE HIM OF THE FINAL ACTION TAKEN IN THE MATTER. IN VIEW OF THE CONSIDERABLE DELAY WHICH ALREADY HAS OCCURRED IN THE SETTLEMENT OF THE CLAIM, IT WILL BE APPRECIATED IF YOU CAN, AT THIS TIME, FURNISH US WITH A COPY OF THE REFERRED-TO DECISION, TOGETHER WITH ANY FURTHER RECOMMENDATION THAT YOU MAY CARE TO MAKE, IN ORDER THAT THE MATTER MAY BE CONCLUDED.
