apdo, 633 Cuernavaca unclear Mexico 10 Mar 67 Dear Jack, thanks, for yours of Feb 28 which crossed with mine in th blue above the Rio Grande. We'll have to stop crossing letters and get together. Your letter says nothing about the Conroy Archives, you ole fox, and I'd come to see you even if you were nude or archives; but let me tell ya th libraries are really thirsting for your archives, and if I have anything to d-do with th deal, they'll pay well for the privelege of peering into the (paper) parts of the one & only (no longer in captivity) Conroy. I am indeed sorry to hear about those shits in the UnEmployment Bureaucracy, but don't give up: I got a claim almost a year after its first rebuff, by continual reapplication, over the objections of employer, union, government officials and everybody except one man in the State central office who admired my case: Hope you can do somewhat th same. THE BRIDGE is exciting to us, down here. We wonder how it will splash down. It could hardly do better than N V which sold more than 8,000 and is still selling. I'm trying a 'study' of the BRIDGE, but would rather be writing poems. Yes, will try your friend Wagoner, whose work I've liked, what I've seen of it. One other lil thing: I never saw your full review of N V in Chicago Trib, but will hope to see it this trip. Th dame in PUBLISHERS' WKLY may well find herself left behind; the book is 100 times greater than she seems to think poor gal. I've met, with pleasure, yr friends Keaney & Ames, but am busier than a cat on a hot printer's slab trying to cover commas (I just invented this, c in a circle, see), & hope to see more of them later. Maybe you'll venture down again; I'll try to fix up a lecture or expense jaunt for you, the very which I can't fix up for me: Hoping to see you before the Ides of March march into April. unclear unclear Charlie PS I do hope your Gladys is one, or two, up on the unclear. How does she like your cooking1? PS2 For Gladys, from my garden: pressed leaf
