Paris, April 6th 1925. 

Miss Elsie de WOLFE, 
677, Fith Avenue, 
NEW YORK CITY.
U.S.A: 

My dear Miss de Wolfe, 

I am sending you enclosed the official letter from my book-keeper giving answer to your manager's inquiry of March 25th.. 

As you certainly know, with the new laws in France, the so-called "luxury tax" which is now called: "taxe sur le chiffre d'affaires" has to be included in our selling price and we are to pay it instead of the customer, as previously was done. Therefore, we always deduct, first, this tax from our selling price and it is upon this nett [[net]] price that commissions are being calculated. 

I am sorry I did not see you while I was in New-York. Your office probably told you that I telephoned several times but was not able to join you. I hope that I will be able to make up for this, very soon, in seeing you over her [[here]], in Paris.

Trusting that you are enjoying good health, 

Pray, believe me to be,

Yours most sincerely,
