Dear Mr. Millar:

I am sure you will understand how breathlessly I am waiting to find out whether or not you were able to arouse interest in Mr. William H. Beal regarding the [[strikethrough]] trip [[/strikethrough] tour that I am to make across the country [[strikethrough]] and [[/strikethrough]] the Stinson which you so very kindly suggested you would try to have put at my disposal. I am expecting to fly to New York with Miss Jacquelin Cochran in in about two weeks, and as a number of other possibilities depend upon this other plan, it would be extremely helpful to me if you could let let me know as soon as possible what chance you think there is of securing the Stinson.  [[strikethrough]] Of course, I am crossing my fingers. [[/strikethrough]]. In case this materializes, would the Stinson people wish to take charge of the publicity, or would it be necessary for me to engage an agent? I imagine that they could do it more advantaguously than I, as they know the game so much better.

It was so kind of you to send me the magazine [[strikethrough]] picutres, which [[/strikethrough]] I am looking forward to receiving with colour. You have been more than kind and I am most appreciative. With thanks and best wishes,

Sincerely yours
