Carl Kreider to Bender: the part-time position at Princeton might be abolished; deep uncertainty how Kreider could finance another year at Princeton; on his family’s finances, mention brothers Leonard Kreider and J. Robert Kreider and “Don” [Don Kreider]; mention “Leonard and Rachel” [Rachel Weaver Kreider, Rachel Kreider?] as yes, holding to Mennonite principles; asked Bender’s prayers “for me constantly as I form opinions about the economic society in which we live,” that they “be completely compatible with the Gospel of Jesus Christ and the historic position of the Mennonite Church”; attached is carbon of letter Carl Kreider to Pres. S. C. Yoder [Sanford C. Yoder], April 19, 1937--commenting on answers to what was obviously a questionnaire for prospective faculty [questionnaire earlier mentioned in Kreider-Bender correspondence]; Kreider writing that he was “certainly in full sympathy with the program of Goshen College.”
