Here are some of the seemingly impossible feats of a recent story: 1--a diver in an ordinary diving dress is able to stand the pressure at three miles down; 2--(granting the above is possible) a diver shoots up three miles without stopping and still does not become a victim of the bends; 3--(granting the above two possible) a diver after shooting from such a great depth and pressure to a depth of comparatively low pressure would not be able to lower the pressure inside his dress, since it would be held so rigid that he would not be able to bend his arms; 4--a man or animal suddenly released from the enormous pressure of about three hundred tons to the square inch to atmospheric pressure, it seems, would most certainly burst before the internal pressure could equalize itself. Please notice that I said seemingly wrong. I'm for A. S. just one hundred per cent and would prefer to have it as right as possible. I don't like crank letter writing and would never have written this now if it hadn't been for several of the letters in the March issue that gave me a touch of hades under the collar. S'long. Maybe I'll write again sometime when I get some more "ham science" ideas.--William S. Lotsch, 1 Morrison Ave., Troy, N. Y. _You Make Them Adequate_ Dear Editor: Thanks. Of course I accept your invitation to "The Readers' Corner." I have been a constant Reader of your magazine since its appearance on the Science Fiction horizon, and I have yet to meet a story that I failed to read in its entirety or that I didn't like. To merely write a letter and say that this story was good, the other story was fair, and oh my! how poor the third story was, is futile. But as it is the usual custom to do so here goes: Excellent stories--all of the first five volumes; good stories--who's interested?; poor stories--where are they?; good authors--takes up too much room and time; poor authors--got tired looking for them. All I want to say is, Astounding Stories is the best or one of the best magazines on the market. Gee, but aren't words futile when you describe something great and wonderful!--Herbert Goodket, 707 Jackson Avenue, New York, N. Y. _Ain't It Too Awful!_ Dear Editor: I knew it. It was bound to come. At last my efforts have been rewarded. Fame has sought me out--even in Brooklyn. It was suggested in the March issue of Astounding Stories that I, Louis Wentzler, as one of the active contributors to "The Readers' Corner," regale your Readers with a description of myself, my interest in Science Fiction and how I got that way. A picture was also requested, but this had better be omitted. As for my personal history, bend an ear:
