Dear Prof. Akhtar,
I want to inform you why you did not hear from me during last autumn. There was a change in my plans since the United Nations technical-assistance budget was not sufficient at the time to finance my trip to India. This is why you did not hear from me and why I did not try to visit you.
Meanwhile I was happy to be invited by the United Nations and by the International Bank to participate in work connected with the problems of underdeveloped countries. So it may even have been good luck that I was not yet engaged for the next half year. There may be a [chance], however, that I shall go to India later on and you may be sure that I shall not forget your kind invitation to see you.
With all good wishes for you personally, I am
yours very sincerely,
(J. Tinbergen)
