Děkují za dopis, ihned odpovídá [Marie Martinů], že žádný opis ani smlouvu nemají a neměli, takže neví, o co se jedná. Možná ji má Bohuslav Martinů - v tom případě by ji měl poslat? BM psal, že se má dobře a dobře se mu pracuje, plánuje se tam [v Nice] zdržet do podzimu a možná déle. Pracuje na celovečerní opeře na italský text od [Carla] Goldoniho, která s jmenuje LA LOCANDIERA, první jednání už dokončil. JULIETTA se snad bude hrát ve Wiesbadenu. Včera zjistili, že 4.2. hrál V. Neumann v Karlových Varech 4. SYMFONII. V Hamburku provedli ŽENITBU a v Berlíně Symfonii [jakou?]. Psal [Jan] Novák z Brna, že mu nedovolili hrát TŘI TANCE PRO DVA KLAVÍRY. František Martinů možná pojede do Prahy v květnu, tak si o všem mohou popovídat. Srdečně děkují za nabídku z předešlého dopisu, ale stále mají z čeho žít, tento měsíc jim došla poslední splátka ze Státní banky (10 000K). Adresa BM: 94 Chemin de Brancolar, Nice, A.M. Francie.
Věci BM, o kterých se KŠ zmiňuje, mají uložené ve spořitelně v sejfu a ostatní, které se tam už nevešly, uloží do ohnivzdorné pokladny, budou KŠ k dispozici. Psal také [Miloš] Šafránek, že Český hudební slovník si u něj objednal heslo o BM, potřebuje k tomu data, o která bude MM psát BM. KŠ má pravdu, že BM ani neví, jak se má, poslal jim pohledy z Karnevalů, udivilo je, že ještě existuje tak "bezstarostné veselí". Zajeli si také do Mentonu, kde slavili Karneval na loďkách na moři. Přejí mu to. Návštěvu KŠ by uvítali, ale kraj je "zamořený", nemocnice jsou uzavřené a u nich doma si "to" odbývají jeden po druhém - zrovna se doléčuje Jindřiška Martinů. Jak se má matka? Bez příkazu KŠ nepodniknou nic.

They thank [Marie Martinů] for the letter and immediately reply that they do not have any copy or contract and have not had one, so they do not know what it is about. Perhaps Bohuslav Martinů has it - in which case he should send it? BM wrote that he is well and working well, he plans to stay there [in Nice] until the autumn and perhaps longer. He's working on a full-length opera on an Italian text by [Carlo] Goldoni called LA LOCANDIERA, he's already finished the first negotiations. JULIETTA will hopefully be performed in Wiesbaden. Yesterday they found out that V. Neumann in Karlovy Vary on the 4th SYMPHONY. In Hamburg they performed the GENEITBA and in Berlin the SYMPHONY [which one?]. [Jan] Novák wrote from Brno that he was not allowed to play THREE DANCES FOR TWO CLAVERS. František Martinů may come to Prague in May, so they can talk about everything. Thanks for the offer from the previous letter, but they still have to live on, this month they ran out of the last instalment from the State Bank (10 000K). BM address: 94 Chemin de Brancolar, Nice, A.M. France.
BM's belongings that KS mentions have been kept in a safe in the savings bank and the others that no longer fit will be placed in a fireproof box at KS's disposal. He also wrote to [Miloš] Šafránek that the Czech Dictionary of Music had ordered an entry on BM from him, and needed the data on which MM would write BM. KS is right that BM doesn't even know how to do it, he sent them postcards from Carnivals, they were amazed that such "carefree merriment" still exists. They also went to Menton where they celebrated Carnival on boats at sea. They wished him well. They would have welcomed a visit to KS, but the region is "infested", the hospitals are closed and they are taking "it" one by one at their home - Henryk Martinů is just finishing his treatment. How is your mother? They won't do anything without an order from the CS.
