Professor Ragnar Frisch, Universitetets Socialøkonomiske Institutt, Karl Johans Gate 3. Oslo.
My dear Frisch,
Back in Holland I want to thank you once more for the splendid days I had in Oslo. I think it was extremely pleasant and useful. I have the feeling to have learned very much both about your work and mine and about Norway's practical problems. Please, give my thanks also to Haavelmo and your collaborators.
With this letter I am sending you the first of a few notes I am preparing (as you will probably also do) in order to consolidate the results of our discussions. Other ones will follow therefore. In annex I I tried to formulate in my own words what seems to me to be the essence of your index number proposal. Before passing this to Idenburg I would like very much to have your comments. Annex II tries very shortly indeed to summarize the question we discussed the last evening in the country.
As soon as I have got back my notes (which are in the famous "case" with printed matter you have sent on for me) I shall re-write my memorandum using the new notation adopted by the "World Conference".
As to the latter we already agreed, I think, on sending the results to Koopmans; I wonder whether it would not be good to send them to Stone and to address the letter for Koopmans at the same time to Marschak.
With all good wishes,
yours very sincerely
