However, because 1 often pass your nearby sales office on CPS, I think of you frequently and have often planned to contact you on a proposal. Which Is what this letter Is all about. Specifically, Al ?╟÷ as a publicity pro In New York, still the overall com- munications center and doubtless where you draw your greatest patronage, aside from LA and the nearby coast area ?╟÷ how about our working out an arrangement whereby the Sands can score even greater press mileage? If you can snag a special budget for this I'd be delighted to work closely with you - and with certainty our efforts here would pay off with added punch to the great job you have long been doing. r , , , , While columns are possible, much more fruitful you'll agree would be our cooperative Initiation (or followup) of feature stories in the NYTImes, News ai mags like Holiday, Tlme^lfe and Look, all of which are at my doorstep.

Also, when you're In LA say hello to Ed Grade, editor of the Los Angeles Times Syndicate, which distributes a dally column feature I have been writing for some time. Meantime, Paul H.
