93.

 

Food poisoning on top of the rest; been sick for a week. Not quite right yet.

     

Yi going strong.

     

Great news from U.S.A. Clymer [R. Swinburne Clymer] has forced Lewis [H. Spencer Lewis] to maintain that I never had authority from Reuss [Theodor Reuss] to work O.T.O. but invented an imitation order myself!!

     

Now Clymer publishes photos of Reuss' Oriflamme with my picture and titles and so on as large as death and more than twice as unnatural.

     

We've got 'em cold.

     

Vive le IX°.

     

Mortadello has been accepted by a producer; we hope to have it on in London before Xmas. Personally I doubt it.

     

But it might help me to find a market for the film rights.

     

Hope to see you at once. The Californian Crisis may develop rapidly by cable. Could let you know to-morrow—important conference to-day.

 

Love
