I have replied: n Wait until after April First 1933 then I shall let 
yon know". As x have told' you before:i feel that we have only just 
touched the Orchids of Honduras and I would rather continue collect¬ 
ing for the Arboretum,enen at a finincial loss to myself, until 
we have collected a representative showing of Honduran Orchids. 
Should you give me tha contract for another year it will 
be impossible for me to finance myself until the first of July,as 
I did last year, I have very little money saved from my salery as 
I have been paying expencies,except assistant salery,for the past 
two months and another month to ge. 
I hope that you have a very pleasent trip to'the Indies 
and that I amy hear from you soon after your return. 
"fours very truly,
