Dear Mom, Paul & Julia

Received the newspaper and picture of future car – sure would like to have one – when do they come out.  Worked yesterday, still busy and will be busy for next 3 days – will try and write you and long letter one of these nights.  It looks according to paper that this war has realy still, and hope it is over in next few month.  I’m getting tired of this life – at least that is the way I feel today.  That new car is OK sure hope we will be able to buy one after war.

Regards
CKaiser
