Year Ended September 30, 1998
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have been advised that there has been an extension of time requested
to complete the above reference filing, and that the reason cited for the need
for additional time is that the applicable audited financial statements are not
yet available.
The applicable audited financial statements are not yet available
because we were unable to obtain timely information necessary to complete the
audit prior to the March 31, 1999 filing date.
