I don't know, but he published an open letter on international finance
two years later at the same publisher:
Valutasorgen; or, "The flight from the mark." An open letter to the
president of the United States of America on the vexed problem of
German exchange .

I have no idea what this could be, do you?
The Tanjur and The Kanjur: A Dissertation on Sanskrit, the Language of
Antiquity, and on the corollary question, "Where was the Cradle of the
Aryan race?"
RICHARD, William L.
Verlag: La Casa Amaraca, Freeport, N.Y., 1920
described as follows:
First edition. Oblong octavo. Printed wrapper: 7, [1]pp., photographic
frontispiece portrait and unpaged (approximately forty-one) gelatin
silver photographs of the Sanskrit manuscripts. Contemporary custom
binding by the Atelier Bindery in full pale brown morocco with four
raised bands and black morocco spine label with title and decorations
of dragons and swastikas in gilt, dentelles in elaborate gilt floral
pattern, all edges gilt, marbled endpapers. Top corners slightly
bumped, very near fine in custom cloth slipcase. One of 500 numbered
copies, this copy unnumbered. Brief dissertation about the author's
copies of rare Tibetan Sanskrit manuscripts. Apparently issued as an
eight page pamphlet, this copy has been enhanced with the photographs
and seems likely to have been the author's own copy. Attractive and
beautifully bound volume. *OCLC* locates two copies of the pamphlet,
but nothing with accompanying illustrations. (Yale and NYPL).

it seems to me in the first place probable that the person who wrote
this does not know the difference between Tibetan and Sanskrit, but
maybe that is not true? Interesting, i think, and it makes me curious.
