May 31, 1934. Dr. H. Schlunit, Roon 110, New Chemistry Bldg., Columbia, Mo. Dear Dr. Schlundt: This is to confirm my telegram of Tuesday after- noon stating that the LePorte case has been postponed until the Fall Term of Court. We were very mich disappointed in this postponement as we have spent weeks of time in preparation and folt we were as well prepared as we ever would be. We also appreciate that you have undoubtedly gone to considerable inconvenience in arranging your schedule ao that it would be possible for you to come to New York at the time specified, and want to express to you our appreciation for your endeavors in this direction. The Judge who was to hear the case is a hard working man, and he felt he could more ably render decision by letting the matter go over until the Fall Term of Court, as he has a considerable amount of work shead of him and stated it sould be impossible for him to render decision before Fall, even if he heard the case at this time. As soon as a definite date for trial has been set, we shall communicate with you and hope that your schedule will be such that it will be possible for you to assist us at that time. I an doubly sorry that the case is postponed, as I had anticipated a visit with you during the next two weeks. fith my very best regards, I am, Sincerely yours HHBarker:DK Vice-President
