9 I have been trying every where to get a most valuable little book
10published by you, called "German Social Democracy during the war", by
11Bevan. They say they cannot get it for me. Could you possibly let me
12have a copy? I specially wish to give it to someone. I am sorry I did
13not meet you when you were in Africa, but there was a misunderstanding.
