Dec. 16, I think Jack I, oboy:

    Sent you a free press and Village Voice (NYC) under separate cover few days ago - might find something to tickle your rural mind.
    Dont like idea of Nixon in White House - never trusted Tricky-Dick - he has too many friends in wrong places and his appointments to cabinet sort of spell dictatorship for USA - and no help at all for the poor, white, black or Spanish - Cuban - Puerto Rican - American.  Nixon is essentially, I feel, an evil man.   His foreign aliances [sic] will be strongly pro-facist, even Irael [sic] I do not consider a democratic country - and Nixon has Milton Friedman, of Chicago I believe - a Jew fascist - a reactionary like Joe McCarty & Martin Dies.  Fear the next four years, but maybe militant blacks and hippies can keep Nixon in line - I hope.
    Glad your book sold in West Germany - the W. Germans are more prosperous than us Americans - besides they lost the war and we are helping the Huns and Japs build up again, where we won't help Appalachia!
    Thought you might like Monterey restaurant paper - travel editor sent 'em to me, he knew I'd chuckle over 'em.  Best, JCR/    Cold here - whooey!

in left margin Saw Norman Mailer on TV - he is no "movie maker" and has written out I guess, but he at least ? the Establishment - seems a "lost intellectual" like Dwight MacDonald.
