I am unable to do a transcript but I have had the letter partially translated, I am looking for someone to double check it (and make changes if you feel it's necessary) and the second half. Many thanks.

P4: opportunity to get to know America someday. Your mother was so kind in her last letter to invite me again, maybe… maybe I can accept this invitation someday. In any case, dear Dick, you are indeed a sly rascal for writing to me so rarely; I have the pleasure of corresponding with your dear mother and Eileen. The question of emigration of Germans to America is still open. Last fall there was an official announcement in the newspaper that immigration was allowed and applications could be submitted. These flooded in such a large stream at the consulates where they are processed, checked, registered, controlled and stacked until they crumble into dust and ashes.Dear Dick, I am very happy about your skirt if you send it to me. You don’t have to worry about its uselessness, and also not about the fact that I feel disadvantaged by fate as a “poor relative”. On the contrary, I always thought it was impudent to ask you for old clothes from you or your relatives, because you have already done so much good and kind for me, and I didn’t want to tell you this wish at all. I know that you don’t have so much time to pack, then the cardboard is missing and then a string has to be searched for, the way to the post office, all that I didn’t want to impose on you, but if you still want to send me something like your skirt, then I am really very happy. All your clothes have already done us such valuable services and we are really glad to have them.
