Shripad Ak<strong>in</strong>chan Maharaj to pr<strong>in</strong>t the<br />

paper 500 only for September. In this connection<br />

I asked the press if they will reduce<br />

the charges for this less number of<br />

pr<strong>in</strong>gt<strong>in</strong>g. He said that the charges will be<br />

same. I th<strong>in</strong>k that we should pr<strong>in</strong>t it as<br />

usual i.e. 1000 . Ak<strong>in</strong>chan Maharaj has<br />

secured contribution of three reams of paper<br />

(241bs) and the postal charges will be<br />

only 1/4th of the last month. So why for<br />

the matter of sav<strong>in</strong>g some papers we shall<br />

not pr<strong>in</strong>t the full number. In my op<strong>in</strong>ion<br />

we should pr<strong>in</strong>t more than 1000 copies<br />

every month and distribute them <strong>in</strong> large<br />

scale. I th<strong>in</strong> you will reconsider the matter<br />

and let me know your futher op<strong>in</strong>ion. The<br />

pr<strong>in</strong>t<strong>in</strong>g will beg<strong>in</strong> <strong>from</strong> dayafter tomorrow<br />

and you will k<strong>in</strong>dly reply this just<br />

on receipt of it.<br />

I hope by the time this letter reaches<br />

you you have had returned <strong>from</strong> Nabadwipa.<br />

Hope you are well.<br />

Yours affectionately,<br />
