_But--Conniston Was An Impostor!_
Dear Editor:
I read with interest Mr. Ray Cummings' story, "Brigands of
the Moon," in the March number of Astounding Stories. The
tale was a worthy one from the pen of so clever a writer. I
do think, however, that the author might have left out the
point about Sir Arthur Conniston, an English gentleman,
turning traitor. This sort of thing is hardly calculated to
bring about a friendly feeling between England and America,
the two greatest countries in the world. I have the greatest
admiration for the United States, and though we may have a
little fun at each other's expense, there is no ill feeling
meant, but I really hope you will not publish any other
story like that one.--An Englishman, Montreal, Canada.
_Likes the Romance_
Dear Editor:
I have just finished my second copy of Astounding Stories
and I wish to say I have enjoyed every story.
For some time I have been a reader of Science Fiction, but
none will compare to Astounding Stories. These stories seem
to have the proper amount of romance in them to make them
really interesting, and it adds the proper touch.
I have no criticism to make. May I wish you a great success
with this magazine--Frank I. Sontag, 825 Prescott Ave.,

_High Praise_
Dear Editor:
Allow me to congratulate you upon the establishment of "The
Readers' Corner." I do not know which was the first issue of
your delightful magazine, but I have been buying it
regularly for quite a few months.
I may not be an experienced critic, but it can be easily
seen by anyone that this magazine is one of the best on
sale. I, for one, enjoy your stories more than any other
stories I have ever read.
I have just finished the second part of the four-part serial
entitled "Brigands of the Moon." I thing Ray Cummings is the
best author I have ever met up with in stories. The drawings
are fine, the print is excellent, but I think the paper
could be improved. But by no means change the size of your
little magazine. The size is just right.
In your April issue I read in "The Readers' Corner" about a
Science Correspondence Club. Believe me when I say I'm
sending immediately for an application blank. I think the
idea of this club is excellent.
Truly you have contributed a great gift to Science Fiction
readers in offering this magazine to the receptive
public.--Theodore L. Page, 2361 Los Angeles Ave.,
Pittsburgh, Pa.
"_Don't Do It!_"
Dear Editor:
This afternoon I saw Astounding Stories for the first time
and immediately grabbed a copy, as I have read others of the
Clayton group, and moreover am a Science Fiction fan.
