Dear Mr. Alston,

This is to let you know that we have been considering you very seriously as a war artist correspondent. Unfortunately, we find that we cannot take you on at this time because we are under a quota as to just how many men we can have out in the field at one time, and we cannot take on any more right now. However, we are certainly going to keep you in mind for future work should we be able to expand our quota.

With kindest regards, I am

Very sincerely,
Margit Varga
