The ads are calling, so Addios. I feel like quoting the first verse of _The Bridge_ for a snappy close:-- Macadam, gun grey as the tunny’s pelt, Leaps from Far Rockaway to Golden Gate, For first it was the road, the road only We heeded in joint piracy and pushed. 134: TO ALLEN TATE [_Cleveland_] _Feb. 15th, ’23_ Dear Allen: --/--/ I enclose a note from James Daly, whose poetry you may have sampled in _Broom_. He was here last Fall visiting a mutual friend, and I think I showed him some of your verse. After you have seen what “some others” think of you, please return the enclosed. _Broom_, by the way, has busted; N. Y. office closed last Saturday; March issue, the last, to be distributed from Berlin while the tent-stakes are being pulled up. I rejoice in a way. At least they won’t get a chance to murder my “F and H” any more. _Secession_ will publish the three parts together probably sometime next summer. (There is no use in my sending anything more to _The Dial_; they just rejected my “Stark Major,” and it is plain that their interest in helping American letters is very incidental. Note the predominance given to translations of the older generation of Germans, etc., who have absolutely nothing to give us but a certain ante-bellum “refinement.” They aren’t printing the younger crowd of any country.) All this should convince you, as well as myself, of the real place and necessity for _Secession_. Of course I’m sorry now that I fooled around sending “F and H” anywhere else at all. _Dial_ had a chance at that, too, you know. You may be indisposed to Waldo Frank, but I must recommend to you _City Block_ as the richest in content of any “fiction” that has appeared in the American 20th century. Frank has the real mystic’s vision. His apprehensions astonish one. I have also enjoyed reading Ouspensky’s _Tertium Organum_ lately. Its corroboration of several experiences in consciousness that I have had gave it particular interest. 135: TO GORHAM MUNSON [_Cleveland_] _Feb. 18th, ’23_
