I am sorry that our efforts thus far have not brought forth better results. Unfortunately we did not get started very early and our local committee at a recent meeting decided that it would be much better to defer any active [efforts] to collect funds until the fall. The people whom we would approach are practically all away for the summer and it is not a good time to attempt to raise money for anything but "fresh air" work. I hope that by November we shall be able to raise the quota assigned to us. At all events, we shall do our best. I am sorry to have to write you in this way and I hope that deferring the matter will not seriously inconvenience you or the English Committee.
With kind regards, I am
Yours faithfully
Gaylord S. White.
