Summary
Informing him that Edward Dowling claimed to have never received Wagenknecht's script (for "What Maisie knew"), and remarking that he is "beginning to understand why I do not get excited about doing plays for the present theatre - and movies are a million times worse."; calling the book Douglas Fairbanks (by Ralph Hancock) "Pure fiction", and expressing interest in Jung's book on Psychology and alchemy; recommending the film "Mahatma Gandhi" to him; wondering what to do about Eddie Dowling, as "He must have received your play"; stating that she must go hear her sister Dorothy read her lines for television, as she is on the air tomorrow.
