User-Contributed Transcription May 17th -1952-
Dear Mr. Shapiro;
Your letter about my election as a member of the Board of Trustees of "Poetry" honored me, and made me very happy, - both because of my old association, and because of my delightful and admiring acquaintance among the present Trustees.
But I must regretfully refuse this honor. I know too little about contemporary poetry to qualify as a member of your Board -- though I hope I know enough to qualify as a constant and devoted reader and friend of "Poetry,"
E.F.W.
