Dear Daniel,

It seemed easier to send the check for $100 - to my bank than to fool with money orders - as the bills were sent to me. I have written checks as follows:

So why don�t you keep the credit for a future order and when I come home, you can reimburse me. I am taking the liberty of advancing a small package of Lifesavers for Billie Pierson.

Mr. Todd here says he hopes you will also send some seeds personally. That was a nice writeup.

I�ve met all of the people here - French Aid headquarters looks like the City Hall before a box goes out. It�s volunteer work. They are short of help and money like we are and it all takes longer than it ought to. They have to wait until they get a certain size shipment and space on a boat that will give them rates. It�s all an effort to do something good in the world. None of it quite perfect.

I read with pride, the editorial about Feves from the highschool paper to a big New York meeting.

The town adoption program is growing in all directions.

Haven�t seen Ann yet - too busy here with Vera. Next week I�ll be free-er.

I�m tired of New York. I�ll be glad to get home again. Keep up the good work.

As ever,

Velma
