Dear Dr. Samek:

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

Until we receive acknowledgment of these two payments in the
total sum of $200.00, we shall not make you any further
remittance.

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

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