General

Letter. István received a letter from Mrs. Angela Bront, ALG's secretary, questioning István's payments for the ads. He finds her lines reproachful and her attitude annoying. Thus István sends a long letter explaining to ALG the situation in order to clarify the misunderstanding. During his 26 years as an editor and writer he has never accepted money for his reviews. Now István wrote ALG's book review, still for free. But ALG's secretary confuses the money ALG sent for advertising his book with the review István wrote for the same magazins. Yet it was ALG's belated idea to advertise his book at the first place. István forwarded all the money he received from ALG to the newspaper for paying the charges for the ad. István feels that his strong-backed journalistic integrity is objected to in the secretary's letter and sends ALG's money back. He encloses a check for $70. István thinks that ALG would have done the same thing in his place. Hungarian
