that I played in Waco except as I actually did play it.i was not conscious of being the heroine Samin his extravagant love for me proclaimed me to be. I was in love Andie twice with two of the finest men any woman was privileged to be loved by -- and I never nor shall get over the gratefulness and humbleness I always felt to be allowed to share the thought and days lives of men ( boys) who were doing things. The thing I want the world to appreciate is the transcendant faith and moral courage that it took to continue to build Wacos and the Irony that they should die so young and to be sure tha to show that had any of the capacity been differentor the temptations rejected for moral compromise had been accepted or had there been selfishness and personal greed allowdd to usurp the stage Waco might have not been the Romance of Industry and honesty that it became. In other words it is a modern Aesops Fablewith an up to date theme --AVIATION----- and the players well known -- and still very much alive --- plus what ought to be a reinstating faith that business can be decent. Any how it proves potential force and irrevocable even after death and that love , real love, is after all the strength that rests strong men so that they can resume difficult tasks and enable them to leave the posterity in infinite help. I do admit that had I been different , or selfish , I would not have been the proper and necessary compensatio nand inspiration for men of the Capacity of Buck and Sam. Right here I will wager that most of the girls you know bore you to death - and that older girls are on your small list. Your disposition demands a good bit of belief (not momentarily assumed) to let you sparkle. i have a thought. You do wiggle a mean pen-- if I am any judge and when I read your letters I can write better

I would not mind rewriting the article to you. i certainly would have been a whiz to have done it first crack. i th thought you just wanted a historysans sentiment except as it demonstrated the investment and growth of the company. I was rrestraining myself because on Waco stuff i get too expansive and in the delineation of the human qualities fear I digress too much. I am awfully glad that you are frank with me-- otherwise i would be wasting time-- and life is too short My idea is this. Suppose I write the story to you in letter form knowing that you will answer each letter. You pretend th that you are a dear friend to me and in this incidence should you be male or female? This would keep up a spirit of zest and your mood could be as it no doubt would responsively be to each phase of the development. Then we would have a complete book that i would upon good criticism consider publishing myself.

For the magazine you ghost write the story or just write it and call it yours. You could put me in my role better t [[illegible]]
