"I regret that I can not give you my composition Tango unless the terms which we discussed are agreed to by you. The small advance . . . should not be an obstacle, even if it is not customary . . . . If you are really interested . . . the slight departure from your regular rules would not seem to me to be impossible.
". . . [I]n the event of your publishing my Tango, it would be necessary to have any and all editions submitted to me before publication, for my approval. . . ."
