Dear Ben Hecht:
Someone let me borrow your book- A Guide for the Bedeviled- and I've just finished reading it in one sitting. I
hasten to write a few words of commendation even though as you admit there are things to which I take exception and open for debate. But I'll have to wait till I can get my own copy of the book from the states to re-read & contemplate.
You see- I too believe in attack. In fact I am a member of the Air Forces as flying personnel so that if God is willing & I return I can have even greater practical ammunition to use against those attackers of human decency & Jews- also will
