November 2nd, 1932.
Dear Harper,
Thank you for your letters of October 31st [letter #1 letter #2] and for the copy of the Statement of Claim. I am bound to say I expected some definite sum would be asked for. Maybe the fact that it is not, is a small sign of weakness.
I also take this opportunity of returning to you the list of members of the Institute of International Affairs which you kindly lent us.
Yours sincerely,
C.J.S. Harper Esq., Messrs Waterhouse & Co., 10-12 Bishopsgate, E.C.2.
