Dear Dr. Samek:

On November 15, 1929 I forwarded to you a draft in the amountof $100, on the Citizens Trust and Savings Bank, payable throughthe Oesterreichische Credit-Anstalt für Handel und Gewerbe.To date I have not received acknowledgment for this, nor forthe subsequent payment of December 27, 1930 for like amount,made payable in the same manner.

Until we receive acknowledgment of these two payments in thetotal sum of $200.00, we shall not make you any furtherremittance.

Hoping to hear from you at the earliest possible convenience,I remain,

Very truly yours,Marcella S. Gardner Sec’y for Berthold Viertel.
