Summary
Telling him that if Rosenberg hadn't seen his letter in the Times the week before, he is sending him a clipping from the paper (which is not here). In his letter to the paper, he wanted to defend the loyalty and intelligence of Americans against the scoundrels who are dragging them through the mud. He has quoted their articles in his letter. He has had the satisfaction of drawing people's attention to France Quand Meme, (evidently supporting his point of view), and has had several positive responses. He and his wife were delighted to visit Rosenberg's New York gallery.
