Notes and topics

BR suggests it is up to Creasey alone to decide if it is better to include the "new look" in The Evil That Men Do.

BR elucidates his views on communism: "Communism, like other -isms, varies according to the people who are carrying it out. At the present time, I think that Russia has a more wholesome outlook on world politics than the United States, but this view might change tomorrow and is totally independent of the relative merits of communism and capitalism in the abstract. The greatest evil in the present day is the mutual hatred of the two sides, not the badness of either." "... our Foundation is, as you say, international, and our overall purpose is the prevention of world war. To achieve this we need support from both sides."

BR returns a revised draft, an enclosed TL(CAR), and asks if it is still effective in its amended form.
