Is sending a copy of the agreement [with Constables for the publication of the "Annual of New Poetry"], which has not yet been signed; has had the advice of [Lascelles] Abercrombie and [Gordon] Bottomley during negotiations, but all the contributors must approve the contract before Trevelyan signs it. For convenience, the contract is between Trevelyan and Constables; there should strictly be another contract between Trevelyan and the contributors showing that he holds the copyright only in trust and receives profits for distribution, but Abercrombie and Bottomley advised this is not necessary; is quite willing to have one if any of the other contributors wish. Discusses points in the contract: the comment on Clause 8 that it 'will allow [Eddie Marsh's] "G[eorgian] P[oetry]' to have the poems after a year has been crossed through. Asks for Drinkwater's opinion of the contract; alterations are still possible, but they are 'anxious if possible to get the "Annual" started this Autumn'. Plenty of time to send an alternative contribution if he wishes.
