736 SENGA TORU 50 Budapest, 24. Ker Jozs rakpart May 9th 1905 Your Excellency I am afraid my telegram will not be duly remitted 1 therefor write to say that I shall be delighted to see Your Excellency on Wednesday the 10th of May at 2. p.m. Yours faithfully A. Vambéiy" 51 „Budapest. 24. Ker József rakpart May 19. 1905. Your Excellency I am afraid all my efforts to find the man suited for our purpose in P. will not be so easily found (sic!), unless we content ourselves with a common newswriter, whose information is of no particular use and very far being reliable. Up to the present I have written four different letters and of course I shall continue as long as our object in view is attained. I may interest You to know that certain governments in Europe are relentless in their effort to blacken Japan as much as possible and to parade always their favourite bogey of the — Yellow Peril -. Quite recently has appeared in Germany a book entitled „Arier und Mongolen" a vehement attack upon Japan and in the same time a most frightening picture of the dangers which threaten the Christian world through the success of the Japanese. I dare say, this publication surpasses even the fanatic and stupid assertions of M. Edmond Théry and of his colleagues. Something real and efficacious means be done to stop the inconvenient to Japan and dangerous to the peace of Europe. Please let me have Your opinion on that subject Will you kindly tell me, when do You leave Vienna for the country? Yours sincerely A. Vámbéry" 52 „Budapest. University May 4th 1909 Your Excellency! Trusting to Your well known kindheartedness and Your appreciation of scientific endeavour, I beg leave to present and to recommend particularly my countryman and friend Count Paul Teleki, a Hungarian noble man of a much respected family, who has just published a highly interesting and learned work on the carthography of Japan from the earliest time to the present. This work is based upon a long research and a painstaking study, and it is very natural that Count Paul Teleki is most anxious to present a copy of this magnificent book to His Imperial Majesty the Mikado. I am sure, You will lend to my countryman Your influential assistance in the ex[e]cution of this his desire, which aims at working but to prove the sympathies of Hungarians towards the great nation of Nippon. Yours faithfully A. Vámbéry"
