our letter No. 542/49-A-14 of 23rd January, 1950 were
printed on 70 lb. White Litho paper and we find that
our stock of this paper will only be sufficient for the
printing of 1,000 copies, of either the English or Hindi
version. We have, however, got ample stocks of 80 lb.
Holingworth paper (sample of which is attached) and
can print the second version or, if you prefer, both
versions on this paper. This paper is far superior and
is likely to last much longer but it is more expensive.,
The extra cost of printing on this paper will be
Rs. 6,750 per 1000 copies of any version. Will you
kindly let us know whether you would like both ver­
sions printed on this superior quality paper or whether
you would like only one of the versions either English
or Hindi printed on this paper.
5. With reference to para. 3 of your letter samples
of the two styles of binding will be forwarded to you
in due course.
