PRINCETON UNIVERSITY INTERNATIONAL FINANCE SECTION (Department of Economics) Fritz Machlup P.O. Box 644 Director (retired) Princeton, New Jersey 08540 January 7, 1974 Mrs. Ludwig von Mises 777 West End Avenue New York, NY 10025 Dear Margit: I'm enclosing a xerox copy of the memorial which I wrote for the American Economic Review. It will probably be published in the June issue. Such delay is quite customary. The December 1973 issue contained the memorial for Frank Knight who had died in April 1972. I hope that you are satisfied with what I wrote. This is not an easy task, because as an unsigned communication such memorials should not be sentimental and they must also avoid statements that might be criticized as overstatements. If I have committed any serious error, please let me know. I suppose I will receive galley proofs and may have an opportunity to make corrections. Mitzi and I are leaving this week for Europe and shall not return until February 18. I intend to see you soon after my return. With best wishes and regards, I am Sincerely yours, Filet Fritz Machlup FM:sb Encls
