Dear Popdaddy –

Well I got this one back a little closer to the promised time!

I hope it is of more value to you than my previous effort, which apparently you read only in part. The work was considerably easier for me, due in part to a very considerable increase in precision of expression over your earlier manuscript. If any of that increase is due to my complaints I am made very happy.

I suppose you are reading Buckley’s “National Review”. I was delighted by the article on fund-raising in Ivy-League schools! She has a remarkable sense of humor.

The “Human Events” you sent causes me a weekly furor at the office. Everyone enjoys the hubbub, though few are sympathetic (understatement!)

Crawford
