The London School of Economics and Political Science (University of London) Sciroi/s14 7 Houghton Street, London, WC2A 2AE Telephone: 01-405 7686 June 6, 1978 •^ear Josef, This is to let you know that I shall definitely be in Vienna between the l4th and 17th July and would very much like to have a chance of seeing you. It would also be nice if you could keep open the evening of the 15th or l6th July (Saturday or Sunday), to give me a chance of inviting you for a dinner at the Weisser Schornsteinfeger or a similar place. It is true that we will be quite a crowd (Elisabeth, my daughter Cathie, and an old friend, Bernice Hamilton, who is coming with us to Hungary); but we two can sit at one end of the table and have a quiet chat. I suggest that on arrival, I give you a ring; and we can then agree on the exact time and detail of our meeting. I reserved rooms for all of us at the Pertschy in the Habrsburgergasse for our few days 1 stay in Vienna on the way to Budapest; but we will be back in Vienna from Budapest on 26 July for a single night in order to board the London plane the following morning, on 27 July. For that nightthe Pertschy would only have a "fiiesenzimmer fur 4% which we would like to avoid if at all possible. I am wondering therefore if I could impose upon you to try and reserve for that single night (Wednesday, 26 July), for the four of us, in any hotel or pension not too expensive, either one double and two single rooms or two double rooms, with at least one of them with two beds. My hope is that you .could do this by telephone and without spending more than, say, 20 minutes in arranging it. Should it be more complicated and more time consuming than that, please forget about the whole thing — I dare say we can survive the inconvenience and lack of privacy of one night in a Riesenzimmer. In any case, I greatly look forward to seeing you soon.
