Miss Lee Ya-ching
American Women's Association
New York, N. Y.

Dear Ya-ching,

[right indent] Since our trip to Florida is now completed and the arrangements in my New York letter pertaining thereto are satisfied, I wish to tell you how much I appreciate your efforts and fine popularity which accomplished such beneficial results in behalf of Relief Wings' United States and Chinese Divisions.

[right indent] This letter is further to express our pleasure in the project of your continuing with us on a more extended tour; and, in order to assist our memories in the future, to record the arrangements between us.

[right indent] I understand that you will exert the same fine continuous efforts to secure money for Relief Wings and that all funds received on our tour, unless specifically, earmarked, will be divided equally between Relief Wings' United States and Chinese Divisions (with the use of the money in the Chinese Division continuing as per our Florida agreement), and that when it appears to me necessary, and when funds are not specifically earmarked for China, Relief Wings may use 10% of the Chinese Division funds to assist in general overhead expenses.

[right indent] Furthermore, I understand that you agree to take care of all your own expenses while on the tour, including room, meals and personal items and that you will continue to observe our organization policy of incurring no expenses in behalf of Relief Wings without first obtaining my approval. 

[right indent] Again, it is understood between us that in case you are not able to arrive in Miami or Tampa by the time I feel we must leave, that you will thereby consider all our arrangements cancelled.

[right indent] If, at the end of one or two weeks in California, I decide to remain longer than you feel able to stay with us, or that our future arrangements can be worked out to our mutual satisfaction, I will pay your
