Carbon of letter to John F. Stephens, 20 East Grand Street, Mount Vernon, New York

November 8, 1956

 

Dear Mr. Stephens:

I cannot tell you how delightful it was to be entertained by you and Mrs. Stephens — including the two juniors — at supper and for the evening yesterday. It was most refreshing to receive so much hospitality, both intellectual and domestic. I am happy to look forward to seeing you both again.

 Meantime, I am sending you several little booklets, chiefly on the proprietary administration of com­munity affairs as against the political and fundamen­tally coercive. I was happy to hear you say that there should be an alternative way for the conduct of commun­ity affairs, and that great advances frequently come in ways that are least expected — at least by the consti­tuted authorities and those who are accustomed to think­ing in a particular way.

 Again thanking both of you for your lovely hospi­tality, and looking forward to seeing you again, I am

Cordially yours,
