Budapest, 13th [VII] 1925.
Dear Miss Addams,
I hope these lines will arrive in time to bring you my very best wishes for a merry Christmas and for a happy, successful new year, in good health and with a visit to Europe.
I am looking forward very much to hear of Madeleine Doty's impressions in Ireland; the discussion about the frontier between the Free State and North Ireland made me feel somewhat uneasy about the Congress, but I hope every thing will be all right.
I am trying to help in the work of the Hungarian Section which is a very hard task indeed, but most necessary and important.
My personal situation is still unsettled; unemployment among intellectuals is so great that I have scruples to accept a job which can be filled in by other people as well. I am trying to get hold of my pension; it [page 2] has been refused by the municipality, and is now before the Minister of Education. Have you read the speech he has just made in Geneva? You would not think it very likely that he would alter the decision of the town council. But still, it is not impossible, and then I could perhaps rely on articles on foreign policy in some of our newspapers to complete it.
I am glad to know the Geneva office in so much better financial conditions and not to have abused any longer of the very kind hospitality you gave me there. I hope Madeleine Doty will be able to afford sufficient help and not get tired too soon of her various duties.
With kindest regards and many thousand good wishes
devotedly yours
Vilma Glücklich
