Karel Boleslav Jirák je od června v USA a učí na Rooseveltově koleji v Chicagu. Když byl v červnu v New Yorku, snažil se s Bohuslavem Martinů spojit, ale nepodařilo se mu to. Charlotte Martinů mu při setkání na festivalu v Praze [Pražské jaro] řekla, že už byli na venkově. KBJ by s BM rád mluvil a vyjasnil si s ním záležitosti z roku 1939, kdy C[elestin] Rypl zařídil, aby byl KBJ propuštěn z rozhlasu a BM měl přijít na jeho místo. KBJ má v ruce dokumenty k této záležitosti a v červnu po válce byl komisí osvobozen od oněch zlomyslných obvinění. Přesto mu rozhlas dal výpověď a on musí teď učit v USA, protože v Československu nemá práci. KBJ byl sice navržen na profesora AMU, ale ke jmenování stále nedošlo. KBJ by raději učil doma české studenty než černé a žluté v USA. KBJ by rád od BM dostal pár řádek. KBJ ujišťuje BM, že na jeho kladém postoji se nic nezměnilo.

Karel Boleslav Jirák has been in the USA since June and teaches at Roosevelt College in Chicago. When he was in New York in June, he tried to contact Bohuslav Martinů, but failed. Charlotte Martinů told him when they met at the festival in Prague [Prague Spring] that they were already in the country. KBJ would like to talk to BM and clarify matters with him from 1939, when C[elestin] Rypl arranged for KBJ to be dismissed from radio and BM to take his place. KBJ has documents in his hand on this matter and in June after the war he was acquitted by the commission of those malicious charges. Nevertheless, the radio gave him his notice and he now has to teach in the USA because he has no job in Czechoslovakia. KBJ was indeed nominated for a professorship at AMU, but the appointment still did not happen. KBJ would rather teach Czech students at home than black and yellow students in the USA. KBJ would like to get a few lines from BM. KBJ assures BM that nothing has changed in his positive attitude.
