2849 Tomioka, Kanazawa Yokohama 236, JAPAN September 26, 1973 Professor & Mrs. Ludwig von Mises 777 West End Avenue New York, N. Y. 10025 U. S. A. Dear Professor & Mrs. Mises: Congratulations on the 92nd anniversary of Professor Mises. Taking this happy occasion, I would like to express my gratitude to you for all you have inspired me in the study of the sound economics and philosophy since my attendance in your seminar in New York University. As a token of my appreciation, enclosed please find an international money order of $100.00. For the first time, I attended a meeting of the Mont Pelerin Society held in Guatemala this September. I was greatly impressed with the profound understanding of your works on the part of Spanish speaking members participated in the meeting. Your influence over the Latin- American countries is certainly overwhelming. It behooves me to propagate the sound economics and philosophy in Japan! Yours sincerely, Joshio Murata Toshio Murata P.S. Mrs. Greaves wrote to me that you had kindly sent to me a copy of the Japanese translation of THE THEORY OF MONEY AND CREDIT. I do thank you for remembering me this way.
