If you think I am mad, you're right! I'm beginning to think you are running some kind of a racket, but I know you have so much to do and we are all so deeply indebted to you that I really cannot make such an accusation. But, obviously you do not even read the letters that are written to you, you just cash the checks. Maybe you keep a few of the letters for publication, I don't know.
Furthermore, I am still waiting for the Falsie Kit that I sent you $5 for on Oct. 14th. That makes $17 of my money that you haven't acknowledged and apparently pocketed. If I don't receive issue #7 and my Falsie Ket within the next 10 days, I am turning my cancelled checks and the complete story over to the P.0.Dept. Inspector for possible Mail Fraud action. I'm sorry, dear, but it's nobody's fault but your own!.

I was naturally very much upset to receive this letter. I checked my card, no money showed for 7,8,or 9. I checked back over my bank deposit cards, and sure enough there was a deposit in the week of 12/13 for $13 and way back there was one for $5 for the falsies. I checked the Service Dept. and these hadn't been sent either. So here I was, greatly in error having received money and by some accident not hav- ing recorded it on his card and therefore not having mailed the goods. I promptly got out my checkbook and sent him a check for $18 in refund. Much as TVia needs subscribers I'll not have someone who feels this way about me on the list.
When others have not received the mag. a nice letter of inquiry got the matter straightened out and it always will. This is an amateur operation and a side line so I can make mistakes, but I will also correct them without being insulted. I've been through too much for this magazine (just how much I'll relate to you in about a month) to take this from any- I'd rather quit the whole business right now. I say this bluntly and intentionally so that you will know that al- though I may make errors I'm quite willing to apologize and correct them but I'll not have anyone impugning my honesty or integrity. I give you information, education and enter- tainment in these pages, you must give me your confidance!
