Content and physical description
ContentPaul Sacher acknowledges to Bohuslav Martinů the receipt of his letters of 9 December and 17 December and the telegram. They immediately contacted a travel agency in Basel, which sent a telegram to Lisbon. The reply should come next week.
It is possible that there will be no room on the ship leaving on 23 January and it will be necessary to book a later service. The PS will write to the addressee as soon as it receives the information from the office. The office will provide BM with confirmation if she requests it.
PS was aware of the collection in Switzerland for BM's benefit. He is proud that Switzerland could do something for BM.
He congratulates the addressee in return on his birthday and together with Maja Sacher wishes him a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
Unfortunately BM cannot take the boxes for Nelly Louise Frey as they have been returned and are now in Basel. Nevertheless, he thanks them for their willingness.
Louis Wauthier will certainly make arrangements with Universal Edition [regarding the CONCERTA GROSSA]. The UE wrote to Sacher that they will get in touch with LW. PS has had no further news since. Czech on the rest of the orchestral material BM sent him.
