Letter of 19 May 1956 |
|
Referring to your letter of May 5th, with regard to the
model of the Temple. I cabled you May 14th, that the
Guardian had not approved any design for the Temple. He
simply felt that there was possibility of the design of
Architect Rocholl, No. 102-A being developed into a
suitable design. He has not been satisfied with the
submissions, but when the revisions are sent by Mr.
258
Rocholl, he will then reappraise all of them to see if any can
be given further consideration.

Please refer to my letter of November 23, 1955, item 6, in
which it is stated the Guardian felt “the cost should run
about $300,000 or a little more; certainly on the outside,
not more than $400,000.” The Guardian has directed me
to advise you, that he now feels the maximum which should
be spent on the construction, is $300,000 and no more….
