Response by Kalafatovic dated January 5th, 1930. One leaf, handwritten on both sides. Content: Kalafatovic responds to the minister thanking him for even answering the letter, seeing that fact alone as a confirmation of respect the minister has for him. Kalafatovic says he never doubted this and eventually finishes by saying he is not satisfied with a provided answer on the question of not being promoted.
Especially because the minister himself says in his letter that Kalafatovic had met the requirements. However, he says he is not going to complain at the end of his career, since he had never complained before.
