Dear Sir:

We have an urgent request that requires your immediate attention. A reading of the enclosed letter will essentially familiarize you with the problem. Specifically, our question is: may we substitute our own publication for another, since we give the reader full option to say “NO” should he desire his money back. Both publications are similar in content and scope. The original subscription “Involvement” was sold at $5.00; our own rate is $7.00 (to rise to $9.00 March Ist). We are willing however, to fulfill all committments made at the lesser rate. We feel confident that this is a proper procedure, but would appreciate a confirmation from you as quickly as possible.

Sincerely,
Mary Claffey
Circulation Director
