Dear Dr. Allen:

This will acknowledge receipt this morning of
your letter of October 4th. I am glad to tell you that
we have not only received a large number of corrected
galley proofs, but some of these have already been for-
warded to the printer for correction and page makeup.
We will proceed with the paging as soon as you return
the necessary cut dummies, and we can send these to the
printer with the actual engravings so that they may be
inserted in their proper position in the page proofs.

In so far as is concerned the details of
proofreading and correction on the galley proofs, I
know that Mrs. Allen and Miss Gile (not Giles)will do
an excellent job. I know too that Mr. Gartner will do
his part on the illustrations. I have been in constant
touch with both of them and I know that things are pro-
ceeding satisfactorily. I hope to continue the good
work. aes

You will be glad to know that the printer has
completed the typesetting so that the last installment
of galley proofs will probably go forward to you before
the end of the week. Please understand that the printer's
plent is not open on Saturdays so that naturally proofs
go forward only on Mondays to Fridays inclusive.

I now come to the postscript of your letter,
especially your comment that you are rather unhappy about
our plan to place two cuts on a page. As a matter of fact,
I think that I owe you an apology, because I should have
said "two cuts or their equivalent on a single page." [
assure you that we will place the illustrations as close
to the corresponding text as the exigencies of page makeup

will permit. Of course it is goi to be i ible t
