Content and physical description

Content	Richard Klos will arrange everything as Charlotte Martinů told [Jaroslav] Mihule. He talked about the SPALIK with Suchy and Dilie. He apologizes that someone sent ChM a telegram by mistake. Regarding the CONCERTANT DUA, he wrote to Kassel and to Sottens, waiting for a reply. The translation of the libretto of GILGAMES into French, which was made by the CHM, is only to serve as a prose guide, as a libretto it has yet to be adapted. To what address should RK send this translation and possibly other versions, if there is someone here who will adapt it? RK spoke to [Frances] Ježková - the bust of Bohuslav Martinů was with [Frank] Rybka, who refused to give it to anyone. It will probably be with Mrs Rybka now, she will try to sort it out with her. He is waiting for news about the screening of Pierre Vidal's film in Vieux-Moulin. At the end of the year he intends to visit [Max] Kellerhals. As I'm sure ChM has already noted, Jan Zrzavý has died. The funeral, which RK describes in some detail, was beautiful, playing SYMPHONY NO. 3.
