Dear Plomer,
It was very nice to get your letter and the copy of the Voorslag, which is extremely interesting. I like the beginning of your story and am looking forward to see how it goes on. We would certainly consider a book of short stories by different people, though short stories are troublesome things to publish. I am so glad you are writing another novel, it would be very pleasant if you would bring it to us yourself in the spring.
The strike has made this a disastrous publishing season, and when everything is taken into consideration TURBOTT WOLFE has done well, I think. It has now sold about [text missing] copies.
I wish we could publish a good paper here, but it is a terribly expensive and precarious thing to attempt. However, perhaps one day --
I should very much like one day to talk to you about the whole black and white question[.]
Yours
