FREDERICK NYMEYER, 16546 South Park Avenue, South Holland, Illinois, U.S.A. July 15, 1965 Dr. Ludwig von Mises c/o Hotel Prince of Wales De Vere Gardens London W 8, England Dear Dr. von Mises: Thank you for your letter of July 10 which gives us your itinerary. It will be valuable for us to have it. At the Oxford meeting of the Mont Pelerin Society, one of the visitors was a Dr. Ira Latimer who is president of the Small Business Men's Association in Illinois. Formerly he was way over to the left in the same way as John Chamberlin was; I think Latimer is now reliably on the "right."

Pierre-Paul Schweitzer. He made a speech which I do not like because it makes too many concessions, in my opinion, to the Keynesian inflationists who over-populate the world. Not wishing to hurt his feelings, I started the letter with a fairly inept first page, but I did not know what else to do with it. For the rest, I tried to make some points in opposition to his speech. Not wishing to pose as an economist, which I am not, I decided that I would declare what I am, namely, a business man who happens to hold severely to ancient moral principles, not because they are ancient but because I think they underlie
