RE: Dr. Waldo Schmitt & party 
This wil3- confirm our telephone conversation of yesterday in connection with 
the forthcoming Belgian Congo trip of Dr. Waldo Schmitt and party. 
Based on the 45-day itinerary submitted, the selling price will be $1,785 for 
each member of the party. This price includes all hotel accommodations ‘and 
meals as well as rail transportation from Matabi to Leopold sville, aijvjbrans- 
nortation fro m Leopold sville t o S tanleyvillg, and from Butovu to Juba, and 
steamship transportation from Juba to Kosti. as-vC^. r<-'L •, u u 
The selling price for the 30-day itinerary araoimts to $1^297 for each , member 
of the party^ also including the rail from Matabi to Leopold sville^ the air 
as above and steamer from Juba to Kosti. 
If a European guide is desired for the party ^ the additional amount will be 
^25 per day. This amount^ of course^ will be shared by the members of the 
party. 
lir. Thornton Dailly strongly recommends making all hotel reservations in ad- 
vance as hotels are sometimes only small places and the party will be arriving 
with 6 people . 
The air connection from Bukavu to Juba will be via Entebbe where the party 
has to change planes. The flight from Bukavu to Entebbe operates 
Monday, while from Entebbe to Juba flights ar^operated every Tuesday, Wed- 
nesday and Thursday. - ' " 
Please let us have final acceptance of the Itinerary at your _^rliest possible 
convenience so that we may go ahead with the necessary reservati
