Dear Bill,

It was a very great joy in receiving the wishes for my birth day from all of you. Now I am 53 years old (or young?) with some problem to set my future life of retired. A very great disaster to have a Government like this we have. When a people is ready and formed to give orders shortly by all the experience of the past years, this people must stop. This is the life, but you know that, like you, I am very busy with all my interests and hobbies, but sometimes this is not sufficient.

In a separate envelope I send a tasting of your future book. The title is an idea of myself and could be different. May be that this title is soft, but it is expressing Australia by the word chooks. Let me know what you think. The book is yours.

I think that this book must contain the answer from Rich, and so you must write to her as soon as possible, because the problem of the Malay is the crowning of all your researches and theses.

I wait for your comments about the future Chattering on chooks...

My kindest regards and appreciations.
