There is one matter of buslness‘ which I am sorr 3 r to 
have to bring up, but which I v/onder if you c.ould dis- 
cuss with your 'financial managers. ^ My joinir.g the FREE- 
LMCS for this ^ trip involves me flying from Antigua to 
St. Thomad, and the preseht .captain of the ship flying 
ba,ck. \Ie, wonder if it would be. possible for the Smith- 
sonian to bear the expense of this flight ('a matter of some 
|6l,00 US)? I' should like to pffer to pay for it myself, 
but I have -just built a house, ‘ and am in no position to 
do so, I am ..afraid, I hope you don't mind ,us asking you 
this, but I should like to kno\'; v;hat you feel on the matter
