I have
no
property, but I have
a
small income from about
8
private lessons
a
week. As
an
auditor at the Polytechnicum I
carry
accident
insurance. I
am
in
possession
of
expired
documents
as
I
emigrated
at the
age
of 15. Here I have
a
residence
permit,
and Mr. G.
Maier
and

Mr.
Bernheim deposited
a
personal bond.
My
parents have
been
living
in
Milan
for the last
61/2

I
live
at
Dolderstrasse

at Mrs.

a

it is
very
hard for
me
that
