Letter from Frank Sullivan, Saratoga Springs, New York, to Mr. Blanchard, 1953 August 8 : autograph manuscript signed.

Questioning the Omnibus matter of getting eleven articles into 5,000, since it would probably run to 25,000 or more; saying that four New Yorker pieces would run to at least 6,000 words, and the New Yorker does not allow condensation for any of their short pieces, only in the case of serials; adding that Herbert Mayes, editor of Good Housekeeping, is in Europe for the summer, and he thinks Margaret Cousins might be in charge; giving payment information for Omnibus; giving past payment information about an item from A Rock in Every Snowball that was used by Readers Digest and what the New Yorker pays.
