Scope and content

Thrilled that she feels that way still about Hollywood; expresses wish again to go out there; any possible opening do let him know and suggest him. Must visit USA annually for two years more, work in California for a few months each year might be possible; seems the only way he shall see her. Very sad at Addi's [?] news but pleased he'd written to him a week before. Enjoying himself despite earlier reluctance to come over so late in the year. Some excellent plays; Noël's surprisingly good. Kommer rang while he was writing; Tilly arrives tomorrow. Thanks for sending clipping; Nancy and husband's itinerary, hopes Loos can spare them time. Sends best to Alice Head; asks after Mercedes. Just returned on a photography jaunt to Philadelphia and saw incredible Moma [Philadelphia's Museum of Art?] collection; met Edgar and Hope Scott. Mary Weston. The Bill Paleys very happy. Tallulah. 'Everyone very poor but still a lot of spending going on.' Is going to take Kay Chaqueneau's apartment and 'oeconomise on extras'.

In pencil. Waldorf Astoria letterhead.
