Bohuslav Martinů se omlouvá Karlu Boleslavu Jirákovi, že dlouho neodpovídal na dopisy. Byl přes prázdniny ve Francii a vrátil se deprimován a unaven a isoloval se, jezdil pouze učit do Princetonu. V Paříži se setkal s [Karlem] Šebánkem, který mu přivezl některé partitury vydané Melantrichem a jsou skvěle vypravené. Národní banka BM povolila zásilku peněz [do zahraničí], ale stejně nic nedostal. BM dostal cenu akademie za svou SYMFONII č. 3, za kterou taky dostal vynadáno v Právu lidu. [Rudolf] Firkušný a [Rafael] Kubelík vyřídili vzkazy, BM za ně děkuje. Chystají se ke štědrovečerní večeři a myslí na rodinu doma.
