Please don't say that you cannot come. You must, really, or all my campaigning to bring about friendly relations between North American and South American poets will suffer a great set back.

Don José Santos Chocano, whom I want you to meet, is one of the most distinguished poets of Latin America. You must meet him. If he were going to stay here for a long while, your not coming to my house next Saturday evening could very well be remedied arranging another appointment. But he has to sail back South very soon. So you must come.

Other guests will be: Mr. Thomas Walsh, M.
Joyce Kilmer, Archer Huntington, the editors
of Las Novedades, Louis Untermeyer, etc.
The reception will be informal.

My translation of your _Falkoner of God_ has been published. Hurrah!

Your,
