Dear Doctor Allen:

I am very reluctant to cancel your subscription to the
Kiplinger Washington Letters because of non-payment. You have
been a client since June 15th, 1936 and your subscription expired
on June 15th, 1939. Although I have had no reply to my inquiries
as to whether you wished to cancel or renew, I have continued to
send the Letters to you because I felt that in these critical
times I should not interrupt them until you definitely advised me
to do so.

The fact that I have had no reply to my letters leads
me to believe that probably they have not reached your desk for
any one of a half-dozen reasons. Therefore, I am sending this
letter by registered mail, so that you personally may have the
opportunity of deciding whether you wish to honor the enclosed
invoice.

Naturally, I don't want to continue to send the Letters
to you if you don't want them - and I can't send more than the
next two issues if we're not to be paid for them. Ordinarily your
subscription would be cancelled without further notice. However,
I know so definitely that your business is vitally affected by
Washington policies already in operation, and by those which will
come later, that I hesitate to do so in this instance.

Won't you attach your check to this letter and return
it to me in the enclosed stamped envelope, so that you may con-
tinue to receive these timely advices without interruption? Or
jot a note at the bottom of this letter telling me definitely
that you don't want the Washington Letters, and why -- so we can
get our books straightened out?

Yours yery Ve
a esident.

Thank you.
