Transcript
  • Ap 7 Sunday Wrote to Middleditch asking to arrange Harrison Smith money to be sent direct here: also asking for English money to be sent to Chiswick bank: also discussing terms for book of Claudius film. Solomon learning to keep to the path. Went to Gelat's: he discussed possibilities of electrical power sold to Valldemossa: 8 or 9 thousand [pts] a year immediately on a 50,000 outlay, because the Valldemosa power-station is dependant on a machine, always breaking down, which cost 1400 [pts] a month in fuel alone. Strenge & Schwarz to tea and then to village and then back: swapping stories. At the café Schwarz wanted to pay. We said “ Todo esta pagado ” . Schwarz said ironically “Ah if only some national conference would say that to Germany.” Laura said “ Hitler would only say that the German nation was insulted.” Laura and I decided to publish Epilogue ourselves with Heffer as distributor: also perhaps James Reeves 's poems and Tom 's novel. Seeds coming up
