Parshall and to Louis A. Ferguson of the Commonwealth Edison Co. in Chicago. Other correspondents include Edison's chief engineer, Donald M. Bliss; C. Pickard, a developer from the Canadian Maritimes; Gibbs & Hill of New York, consulting engineers for the Chicago Chamber of Commerce; and representatives of the Baldwin Locomotive Works.
