I am very sorry, but I feel that I do not want to go in on the South Amer= ican expedition. It is just a case of money. As I wrote you in December, = we have (like many other papers) a newsprint problem that is serious, sho= rtages of help, necessitating new labor-saving equipment -- further compl= icate the outlook. And finally taxes in 1951 will take probably a much he= avier bite out of earnings. So altogether I cannot at this time make a pr= omise. I sent the little iron globules to another man -- A.W. Herbenar, my forme= r assistant -- who is going to make some more photos and try another etch= He worked with me on perhaps 75 irons and knows more about them than an= yone else I know. I also want him to look at the Peru photos. As soon as = I hear from him I will write you. With all good wishes for the new year, Sincerely, (Stuart Perry - name is missing as this is the file copy. The original se= nt to Nininger would have been signed by Perry) ------=_NextPart_001_0043_01C41D0C.5D471890 Content-Type: text/html; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <HTML><BODY STYLE=3D"font:10pt verdana; border:none;"><DIV><FONT size=3D2= > <P>(Stuart Perry to Harvey Nininger letter, Perry's File copy)</P> <P>J= anuary 4, 1951</P> <P> </P> <P>Dear Nininger:</P> <P>Your letter of = December 18 came while we were in the midst of preparations to come here,= and I have been unable to get at my correspondence until now.</P> <P>I a= m very sorry, but I feel that I do not want to go in on the South America= n expedition.
