With the passing of Imagination I reluctantly put the dust cover on my typer far as scientifictional fandom is concerned. And considering the lusty and thouroughly enjoyable pogroms I've engaged in and with various prominent members of this aforesaid fandom I'd like to gather up a few loose ends and knot them before I put my rather checkered homespun away. To begin with here's an open sentence or two to Don Wollheim. Donald, I don't agree with your politics; I probably wouldn't like your brand of cigarettes; but Donald I've learned to think you're pretty much alright. I make no apologies for the DAW thing; I enjoyed writing it; but I will say this that when you took it good naturedly with the laconic comment, "DAW isn't DAW, he's two other guys", I LIKED you. Here's hoping we can cross pens again sometime. To Miske, Thanks for your letter in the September issue. You displayed that "good taste" which you so deplored as lacking in my writings, I feel that any article written by my self is a decided success when it can produce a hodge podge of sanctimonious shrieks, holier-than-thou's, and an abandoned descent to personalities, as my burlesque evoked from you. Knowing that you read Esquire (And look at the nast cartoons, too! I can understand your obvious sophistication. Then, too, there seems to be an idea in the minds of some that I was the machinery behind Madge's recent censorship program. I wish to say here and now that not only am I not guilty of this step but on the other hand I have fought it as best I could. I wish that I could draw some correlation in between this censorship policy and Madge's demise——but there are no grounds for it! So, curses, I can't set my face in smug lines and murmur, "I told you so"! And in conclusion please don't attribute last month's "Ressurection" [sic] to me. It w̲a̲s̲ ̲a full length review, but after having been bowlderized by the inimitable Mr. Ackerman and embroidered by numerous of his typical insertions ----- I relinquish my dubious paternity! Forrie is the Pop. And he's welcome to the changeling. S'long. (Advt, sic)
