COPY Kate M. De Ballve Sinchi Roca 2712 Lince Lima, Peru Dear Sir: Please forgive me of occupying your time with the following matter: Mr. Ludwig von Mises tells me that a critical opinion published in your review would help a great deal to the difusion of my late husbands book recently published in English translation by the name of Essentials of Economics, editor, Van Nostrand, New York. The author was Dr. Faustino Ballve, International lawyer of Spain and Mexico, student of Barcelona, Madrid, Berlin, and London, Deputee to the Parliament of Madrid, member of the Mount Pelerin Society. As you may see by the enclosed note, the Spanish original, first issued in Mexico in 58 met from the beginning with an astounding success in whole Latin-America. Could you, please, be kind enough to consider the possibility of the matter? Very thankful to you, Sincerely, Kate M. De Ballve
