Well, I have so much to say, or rather would like to say for your magazine. I like it in every detail but one, which is waiting a whole month for the rest of my stories. I wish you would give us the third sequel of "Out of the Ocean's Depths." Let the young scientist discover a way to perform matrimony between the girl of the ocean and the man, and then let their child live either in or out of water. There could be two more good stories or sequels of "Out of the Ocean's Depths." I like them all. I liked "Murder Madness," too. It seems as though it is really real, and not fiction. I wish you would get the book out twice a month.--Mrs. B. R. Woods, Cotte, Arkansas. _From Author to Author_ Dear Editor: Since Astounding Stories began you have published a goodly number of really remarkable stories, chief among which, in my estimation, are the following: "Spawn of the Stars," by C. W. Diffin; "Brigands of the Moon," by Ray Cummings; "Monsters of Moyen," by Arthur J. Burks; "The Atom Smasher," by Victor Rousseau; and "The Moon Master," C. W. Diffin. But none of these can compare with Diffin's last short story, "The Power and the Glory," which appeared in the last (July) issue. For originality of theme, clever phraseology and excellent literary craftsmanship it stands alone--a little masterpiece. Its author should be congratulated. To the best of my knowledge, Mr. Diffin is a newcomer in Science Fiction. The first story of his that I read was "Spawn of the Stars." Keep his pen busy, Mr. Editor; he's valuable--an' I don't mean maybe! If I could write a story like "The Power and the Glory," I'd certainly congratulate myself!--L. A. Eshbach, 225 Chestnut St., Reading, Pa. "_Held Me Spellbound_" Dear Editor: I happened to read one of your books the other day--Astounding Stories is the one--and I was very much taken up with it. I found that it was a very interesting book, indeed. I have no fear in saying that it held me spellbound from the start till the finish. The one that I happened to buy was the issue of May, 1930, and the story that gripped me most was "Brigands of the Moon." It was very thrilling, indeed, and I am very sorry I could not obtain the previous copies so as to start at the beginning. But, however, I am able to obtain a copy every month and am very pleased, as I would hate to miss a copy again. Well, I hope this letter will reach you safely. Remember me as a contented reader of your magazine.--Geo. Young, 447 Canning St., Nth. Carlton N. 4, Melbourne, Australia. _We Are Printing It_! Dear Editor:
