DEAR HARRIS: We are opening our Italian Fortnights on October 15th with a formal Ball being given in honor of the Italian Ambassador and his wife. A special flight of Alitalia will come from Rome and Milan to Dallas on October 14th bringing over a large group of Italian businessmen, government officials, movie stars and mannequins from the Alta Moda. It occurred to me that you might have some principals in Italy with whom you do business who might wish to take advantage of traveling over on this special flight and combining a business visit to Dallas with this great Italian merchandising and cultural presentation. If you:-should think of anyone, let us know and we will be happy to .send them invitations for the various affairs. In writing to them, you can suggest that they make their reservations directly with Alitalia or American Express in Italy. With best regards, SM: ehl Stanley Mar s
