Dear Dr. Williams,

When we wrote you last time for some poetry you said perhaps
later in the year; we need it so very much more now that we're
writing again. If there is any chance that you could let us
have something we'd be very grateful -- it will mean so much
to us and to the unknown young writers whom we hope to help.

We've already received contributions from E.E. Cummings, Willard Maas, Terence Heywood, George Barker, and John Middleton Murry, but I'm sure you understand our urgent need for more first-rate material.

Since FACET is a non-profit venture backed by Miss Rothbard
and myself, we are unable to pay for contributions. If, in spite
of this, you can find something for us, we will be deeply grateful.

Thanks so much for your time and your help.
