He describes a share option he is willing to make and concludes: 'I am a large shareholder in Anglo-Foreign Newspapers Limited and this is in consideration of your remaining a director of the Company.'

For my own part I prefer those sections of your programme which deal with economy and freedom rather than this protective business whatever it may be called. I was evidently wrong. I credited you with the controlling voice in Anglo Foreign Newspapers and through them Industrial Newspapers and have thus looked upon you as to some extent responsible for a troup sic of publications that I would be very glad to have.'

He begins with the wish that Harmsworth has 'returned quite recovered' from his recent illness. 'I have had several talks with Sutton regarding the “Dispatchâ€. I am quite ready to begin the Causerie which we have discussed. I would not like it to be confined to politics. I am quite sure I can get exclusive political news when it is going but it is not always available. In any case a gossipy newsy Causerie should be more comprehensive. At the same time of course I would not deal with social or society matters.' Donald: on letterhead of 12 Thorney Court, Palace Gate, W.8. [ London ] 24 March 1932.
