Concerning Lorentz's role in selling his article ["Starvation Under The Orange Trees, "] the machinations of the Associated Farmers [of California], and Steinbeck's decision to donate payment for this article to the Simon Lubin Society. Reporting that his series of articles published in the San Francisco News as "The Harvest Gypsies," resulted in improvements in the conditions of migrant workers; reporting that he is sometimes "oppressed by a really frightening sense of weariness." Informing Lorentz that the dramatic version of "Of Mice and Men" has "run a lot longer than [he] ever thought it would."
