Dear Sir:
Your response of Sept. 3, 1981, has been considered, and found persuasive.
There consequently is no need for the Patent Appeal Board to hold a
Hearing. The reasons for withdrawing the objection made under Section 2
has already been set down in a recent decision dated March 18, 1982, taken
on application 257177 of the Abitibi Company.
The present application is consequently remanded to the Examiner to resume
prosecution.
Yours truly,
J.H.A. Gariepy
