Dear Friend of the Foster Parents' Plan,

Julien Bryan, official photographer for the March of Time, will offer the premiere showing of his new motion pictures on Mexico at Carnegie Hall, Friday evening, March 3, as a benefit for the Foster Parents' Plan. A group of distinguished men and women is being asked to sponsor this event. Rafael de la Colina, Consul General of Mexico, has consented to be a sponsor, and it is probable that Dr. Francisco Castillo Najera, Mexican Ambassador, will attend the film showing.

In addition to the presentation of a comprehensive and documentary picture of life in Mexico today, the Bryan films include pictures of Spanish refugee children who are the guests of the Mexican government.

You, as one vitally interested in the welfare of the Foster Parents' Plan will, I am sure, consent to have your name included on the committee sponsoring the Carnegie Hall showing of the Bryan motion pictures. If, for some reason, you prefer not to identify yourself publicly with this worthy cause, will you let me know at once. If I do not hear from you, I shall presume that you will permit the use of your name in this connection.

Plans for the showing of these Mexican pictures, as well as other activities of the Foster Parents' Plan, will be discussed at the second monthly Foster Parents' Plan luncheon at Armando's, 54 East 55 Street, Friday, February 10th. You and other friends of Spain's homeless children are cordially invited to attend this luncheon. Reservations should be made by February 6th.

Please reserve ______ places for me at $1.25 per plate at the Foster Parents' Plan luncheon at Armando's, 54 East 55 Street, Friday, February 10th at one o'clock. I am enclosing ______.

Signed
