Gentlemen:

With respect to your letter of January 20, I am enclosing a check for an additional $25.00 as a donation to your fund.

Here is a suggestion that occurs to me: Would it not be possible to induce some professional publicity agency, such as the Edward Bernays or Ivy Lee organizations, to take on the work you are attempting, as a public service, without fee? Arrangements might be made to reimburse them for actual out-of-pocket expense, but it seems to me that in the work you are doing, the best professional skill and brains ought to be available without cost.

I do not wish to burden you with the necessity of correspondence about this, but merely offer this suggestion for whatever it may be worth.

Very truly yours,
