I had a CHRISTIAN HERALD reporter at eleven, and two
AMERICAN HEBREW reporters at twelve. They were all of them
intelligent. Then Hugo K. turned up in the middle of it all, and I just
abandoned the Hebrews. I took H. to lunch with Mr. Liveright and two
gentlemen of the film industry. I believe they wanted to see my face.
I do not believe it lends itself to filming and I am much too big, but
still it was interesting to meet them and one got a new point of view.
I dined with the Misses Cooper Hewitt, daughters of Abram Hewitt, once
Mayor of New York, quite a different atmosphere from any other in New
York. Real old world, and most of the people I met talked to me about
my family, remembered my grandfather and seemed to have loved my aunts.
