Summary
Requesting that he send 8 copies of Meridiano de Roma; saying "And git it stuck in ur/ torpid block that EVERYTHING I am now saying in the Meridiano might bloody well have been PRINTED there five years ago if Bardi had had a head instead of a limp of SUET (grassa)"; adding that he ran out of copies of yesterday's Giornle di Genova, but is sending a spare typescript of what they printed; stating that he can read the first article in Meridiano out of one of his copies; asking why he doesn't answer letters and if there are better painters than those reproduced in Meridiano and that he won't accept no as an answer.
