NOVAE TERRAE ---------- NEW WORLDS
You may have noticed the irregularity that has
occurred of late in the production of NOVAE TERRAE.
The January 1937 number was combined with the December
1936 issue and the February number did not appear until
the beginning of March. We regret such a state of
affairs but circumstances are such that it is unavoidable.
The amount of time and work that are put into one issue
is exceedingly great and if we are unable to devote that
amount of time the issue is unavoidably delayed.
For this reason there will be no March issue of
NOVAE TERRAE. We must apologise to the authors of
material which dates quickly -- other material we have in
hand will be included in future issues. Members of
the Science Fiction Association will be disappointed, we
suppose, at the non-appearance of the official organ of
the society. For this reason we are sending this
along with a resume of the SFA material we had
intended to include in the March issue of NOVAE TERRAE.
You may wonder when you may hope to see our
next issue. We are unable to say for there will be
many new developments to be encountered in production
of a printed journal. The next issue of NOVAE TERRAE
dated April, and appearing sometime during the month,
we presume, will be printed. We hope that a month's
delay is not too dear a price to pay for the very great
improvement a printed journal will represent. Prominent
in the issue will be "The Man of the Future" by Festus
Pragnell, "Weapons of War" by D. R. Smith, "Karol Kapek"
by Douglas W. F. Mayer as well as Edward J. Carnell's
column and regular features.
March 27th, 1937. THE EDITORS
Dennis A. Jacques, 89, Long Shoot, Nuneaton,
Maurice K. Hanson, 95, Mere Road, Leicester.
