MR. MASON'S POEMS
Sir,-May I congratulate you on your notice of R. A. K. Mason’s poems? Mr. Mason is an important person in our literature, and you treated him with the space and critical insight that are his due. I would like to make one comment. Your reviewer mentions T. S. Eliot and his effect on Sir John Squire. I doubt if many people are still "enraged" by T. S. Bliot, but I am sure a good many continue to be puzzled. There is one thing that can be said for Mr. Mason that cannot always be said for Mr. Eliot: you know what he means. And there is another thing; Mr: Mason does not write for a coterie.
