Oakley told me of a Mr. Lahenian in Trinidad (headquarters) who is collecting fruit fly parasites for the Bureau of Entomology. He also told me of Marc Kisliuk, 844 Federal Bldg., Christopher Str., N.Y.C., who recently made a trip collecting fruit flies in the West Indies and  followed our route from Jamaica to Trinidad. 1931-32. He is a Plant Quarantine Inspector. 
[[notation in left margin]]X-14-35[[/margin note]]I had planned to ^[[go]] back to El Yunque today, but it rained during the night and almost continually all day, so I didn't even start. Went to town in morning to get my fountain pen fixed, mail, package of motor parts from Customs, etc. In the afternoon I bought some stationery, a hot-water bag for Ruth, some filing cards (1000 3x5 for $1.25), and made reservations at the Bull Insular Line for our passage to St. Thomas on Thursday, the 17[[superscript]]th.[[/superscript]] the tickets will be ready on Wednesday.
