Write soon and tell me what you are doing now. Relaxing I hope, but
I can't picture you not working.

I have received your last letter. Unfortunately I am in no
position to send you an invitation; you will know the true reason in a
year or two.
Regarding Ritter I suggest that you tell him that his paper has nothing
to do with the term Orgonomic Functionalism and the best thing for
him to do would be just simply to drop that term from the title. You may
also indicate my belief that he is a victim of Red Fascists, who are using
for their own evil purposes his strong identification with me.
I am sending along a book on an official account of flying saucers.
This book will show you what malignant blabber of little frightened
souls around me amounts to.
I would expect from you as a friend that you reveal the identity of
the person or persons who are supplying you with all the nice rumours.

I gave Ritter your message two weeks ago but got no answer.
I have very little to write about today. You ask me as a friend to tell
you where the rumours are coming from. I simply don't know. You are
much spoken about over here by admirers and their opposites, but what
is said is so unbedeutend [unimportant] that one forgets who said which.
But I think my mentioning the rumours to you was a spot of plague on
my part, for I ought to have remembered that your attitude to gossip
and mine differ widely. I don't care a damn what they say about me ...
I don't care because the gossipers don't mean a thing to me and because
they aren't true. In your case it may be true that you were alone in
