to believe that the mild Bill simply walked out with the two motors?
Unglaublich [Unbelievable]. So glad to hear of the Observatory. I long
for next summer to see it.
Bulletin 3 is very good. One thing astonishes me in the Institute
policy... page 1 14: "Wherever a local tumour can be removed by
radium we advise to do so." I don't see the point when you claim that
the tumour is only a symptom.
Speaking of diet, I still think diet or absence of it might help to
solve that problem (also page 11 4) of the clogging of the excretory
pathways, but here the layman talks. I know that food is subsidiary, that
sex-economy is the first vital thing, but I am sure that if a man eats
stodge, takes no exercise, drinks too much liquid, sitting in the Box
won't have the effect it should have. Yet in my native village a woman
died at 104 last month, and she ate stodge all her life!
The N.Y. publishers sent me a book Love and Death, a study in
censorship. * It gives a grim picture of sadistic comics, and makes much
of the fact that sex is suppressed in U.S.A. while murder is approved
by the state (in literature). The author, Legman, mentions you on the
last page. If you haven't seen it, shall I send you a copy?
Xmas trees versus sales of Box. I doubt if the former would bring in
much, owing to cost of transport. And to sell the Box would mean
guarding against all the devils who would cry: "Quackery!"
Barakan paid me another £20. I haven't seen him nor Eastmond. I
reread your Character A nalysis with great pleasure. I wish it could be
read by millions.
Our love to you all. Hope the compost heap is a success.
Yes, send on Anna F. 's papers if you have them.

October 6, 1949The book on Love and Death by Legman has stolen the sugar
from my Function and used it in a very bad way to put something over
* Love and Death: A Study in Censorship, by Gershon Legman (New York :
Breaking Point, 19 49).
