Negro Digest 1820 SOUTH MICHIGAN AVENUE Chicago 16, Ill. CALUMET 5-1000 February 17, 1969 Dear Mr. Emanuel: We are returning your check. The copies of the magazine were sent to you courtesy of the company. Yes, I know the atmosphere around the American community in France. I once wrote a piece about it for a "little" magazine. I spent half an evening in Germain des Pres "putting on" an agent from the CIAO He wasn't even cool enough to conceal his identity. I wouldn't recommend your sending your manuscript (collection of poems) to the Johnson Publishing Company. They still are not interested in general publishing, and they would be terrified of a collection of poems. I will use your poems (the ones Dudley sent) during the summer. Addison just surfaced from a great deal of work (books, anthologies, articles) and got off a long letter to me. His book of essays is due at the end of this month, called, Black Expression: Essays in the Creative Arts By and About Black Americans. Best wishes, [signature] Hoyt W. Fuller Managing Editor M.
