Mr* D, P* Aub, District Manager

Washington, D*C* 
Dear Mr* Aubs 
I wish to acknowledge yours,with thanks, of 
September 18, announcing that you have reservation for 
me on the S/S "Caracas* from Hew York to La Cuaira 
October 14* 
It is my hope still that you may be able to 
secure accommodations for me on the "Stuyvesant" of the 
Royal Netherlands S/S Co. sailing October 8* Should 
this not be available I will take up the reservation on 
the Caracas* 
Inasmuch as if I go on the "Caracas" I will 
get away a week later than I anticipated I do not believe 
it desirable to secure a definite reservation coming north 
at this time. I can do this myself when I arrive at 
Venezuela, 
With thanks for your attention, I am 
Sincerely yours, 
Assistant Secretary.
