Dear Director,

One more request. I forgot Privy Counsellor Wiener[1] of our Ministry of Education: he, too, should receive a copy, provided that UE does not already direct its latest publications to him in its own right. I will ultimately2 write to the Privy Counsellor myself, and ask you please not to forget him.

My very grateful thanks,
With kind regards,
Yours truly,
[ sign'd: ] H. Schenker
