Correspondence from Aleister Crowley to Wilfred Talbot Smith
Barton Brow, Barton Cross, Torquay, Devon.

Your letter of April 26. I fear that the motto which you mention is couched in language beyond my powers of understanding.
About the proposed journey. I suppose that a bond of 2000 dollars would cover 6 months stay: a lawyer would tell you. But my permanent interests seem to lie in California. I should apply for nationalism if necessary. I hope that this will not be the case, but that a Federation of Free Peoples will abolish frontiers. There was no trouble in travelling under Queen Victoria!
My financial position depends on various considerations. If the Tarot Exhibition (Oxford June 7-21) is a success, it might lead to a lecture tour in the U.S.A. And there are other matters. My 'gilt-edged' resources amount to 500 dollars a year; and the war may knock this sideways.
Fra∴ Saturnus [Karl Germer] may visit you as my personal representative and plenipotentiary. He knows me, and world affairs; you had better act just as he wishes.
