Notes: In his editorial, Titus begins with the presentation of three poetry prizes - the Richard Aldington American Poetry Prize (to E.E. Cummings and Walter Lowenfels), the magazine's own award, to John Collier, and the William Van Wyck Preferential Prize, adjudicating between the two and favouring the latter – before proceeding to engineer a spat with rival magazine Hound & Horn. Collier and Cummings both contribute verse to this issue; other contributions come from Hermann Hesse, Ludwig Lewisohn (on Whitman), Herbert Read and John Cournos....moreIn his editorial, Titus begins with the presentation of three poetry prizes - the Richard Aldington American Poetry Prize (to E.E.
