JEAN-PIERRE HAMILIUS Esch, February 21, 1962. 127, RUE J.P. MICHELS ESCH-SUR-ALZETTE LUXEMBOURG Professor Ludwig von MISES 777 West End Avenue New York 25, N. Y. USA Dear Dr. von Mises: Kindly find herewith a clipping of the article I wrote in December in ypur honor in the Luxembourg liberal paper. I am late in remitting the clipping to you owing to the fact that I spent some time in bed with one of my 11 Hitler-made 11 souvenirs. Fortunately, I am feeling well again now. The article deserves two explanatory remarks: 1. I did not chosse the title if Ideen bestimmen die Wektgeschichte. Re- naissance des Liberalismus, 11 but only 11 L. von Mises. Ein Achtzigjähriger im Dienst des Liberalismus..." The editor of the paper had endeavored to give the article the widest possible publicity as a result of a polemic that had been waged for weeks between the liberal paper and the clerical press around the fact that capitalism has been exploiting the masses for 150 years. The polemic had been won, I must confess, without even an intervention of mine, by a young disciple of mine ( and so of yours ), a young businessman and Vice- President of the Luxbg. Liberal Party. The young man had been quoting several times from your work and SO my article, without any intention of mine! happened to be the culminating point in the polemic. Immediately afterwards the 11 learned 11 Dr. der Soziologie II ( a priest ) who had been doing most in the clerical attack on liberalism, stopped his interventions. 2. Unfortunately, the editor of the paper had dropped all my quotations from your American books: PLANNING FOR FREEDOM, THEORY AND HISTORY, etc Looking forward to the pleasure of meeting you and Mistress von Mises in Belgium next September, I remain, with my best wishes and kindest re- gards, Yours sincerely,
