Re: Your order 113823 & letter of Dec 21st
I received your letter today stating that you have not received Canadian Custom Form MA Invoices in quadruplicate. I immediately called the Arthur J. Fritze Co, Customs Brokers in Salt Lake City who handled the shipment for me and informed them of this. They told me that they had indeed mailed these forms to the University and in addition had attached forms to other customs documents.
They agreed to prepare new forms, however, and will mail them directly to you according to the address on this letter. If you do not hear from them soon, please advise and I will continue to follow through on this matter.
Sincerely yours,
27 Deci 197 1
