Summary
Expressing hope that the story [probably "In Dubious Battle"] is progressing to the satisfaction of Lorentz. Noting that Hawks saw Hal Wall, and that Harry Cohn of Columbia [Pictures] is interested in discussing the situation [of the production of "In Dubious Battle"] if Warner [Bros. Pictures] falls through.
