Benjamin recieved a long letter from Mr. Grierson. In my review of his book I asked for time to give a history of the democratic era. He writes that he is preparing a gallery of French revolutionary charactors. I ask him to write Arthur Brisbane and Mr. Hearst 5hinking they amay like the papers on The Cosmopolitan. Grierson has sent me splendid reviews on his book. I havent done anything on the new Magazine. After speaking to some friends I'm waiting a fews days to see it the crisis on The Arena is rearched. I'm satisfiedthat the magazine has to move on to other hands. It would be easier to push the Arena than to start a new magazine. Salaries are due and I'm 3 months behind in rent. Mr Brandt seem to be in failure financially, in the event a reciever will be appointed. It's AApril and no March issue of the Arena. The Arena is in financial problems.
