Dear Sir,

             The Government of Canada is prepared to
present to ______ University, a German Aeroplane (Fokker
Biplane type) which was surrendered to the Allies in 
accordance with the terms of the Armistice, for one of 
the following purposes,

          1. For Educational Purposes, the engine and
             machine to be used in experimental work in
             Mechanical and Aeronautical Engineering.

          2. For Exhibition Purposes,- the machine to be
             erected, under our direction, in a suitable
             building and to be preserved by the Univer-
             sity with all possible care.

          3. For Educational and Exhibition Purposes,-
             parts to be used in experimental work and
             the remainder to be preserved as an exhibit.

          4. For storage, under our direction, in a suit-
             able building until such time as it can be
             used for one of the foregoing purposes.

             The Government is also prepared to defray 
the cost of railway transportation and to provide skilled
mechanics to supervise the erection or storage of the 
aeroplane.

             As the aeroplane is of considerable value and
has been brought to Canada at great expense, it is necess-
ary that a written guarantee be given that the University
will preserve the machine with all possible care and not
use it for any purpose other than that agreed upon.

             On receipt of advice that the University is
desirous of accepting this offer, Capt. G.C.Johnson, M.C.
an officer of this department will visit you to decide
upon the suitability of the proposed site of erection or
storage of the machine. This officer is authorized to
make definite and final arrangements for the delivery of
the presentation aeroplane.

             Acceptance of this offer and any further
communication concerning it should be addressed to Capt.
G.C.Johnson, 48 Windermere Ave., Toronto.

             Enclosed herewith is a descriptive note on
the Fokker Biplane.

                        Yours truly,




                                                Lt. Col.
                                 Director of War Tophies.
