3 will probable go south in the fall, probable to Mobile, or New New Orleans. I do want to try to paint a little, but there is this book to finish and a novel eating at me. I'm going to pretty much stay away from Chicago and New York. Whether I'm any good or not what I want is to work. The eternal quibbling about the purposes of art, its drift etc gets on my nerves, knocks me flat.

 Maybe you and Jerry will both come back to the American negroes in the end.  The plan of putting the negroes on the stage, making him paint sing etc etc is all nonsense.  What he has to give is rather noble but is physical - like the running horse or dog, I'm pretty sure of that.
