雪泥鸿爪斯诺可和我不同。他的写作在这段时期并没有荒废,因为他总能全神贯注、倾注全副精力在一件事情上面。每天清晨他都伏案写作。接电话、读报纸或是其它一切使他分心的事,他都一概不做。可是从一九三八到一九三九年间,他的写作也中断了。当时,他只给报馆干干工作,同时着手拯救中国工业合作社,那是我们俩和路易·艾黎于一九三八年初创办的事业。从一九三七年一直到一九四○年,斯诺连一本书也没有写,因为那段时期他不得不跑到菲律宾的碧瑶,集中全力忙工业合作社的事。记得当时为了这事我曾对斯诺大发雷霆,他怕了,不敢再给我火上浇油。直到我们离婚以前,他多次对我说过:“我想到的只是你的赞成。”我愿意承担所有的家务劳动、社会活动和研究工作,一心只想让斯诺专心写书,以他的书影响和感染世人。我从来不许他参加这样或那样的委员会的工作,生怕浪费他的时间,损毁他撰写佳作的才智。我只愿他的名字出现在作品上面,以此作出贡献。斯诺也不喜欢委员会(斯 Snow mud Hung Clauseno can be different from me. His writing has not been abolished during this period, because he can always concentrate and concentrate on one thing. Every morning he is writing at desk. Answer the phone, read a newspaper or anything else that distracts him. But from 1938 to 1939 his writing was interrupted. At the time, he had only done the work of the newspaper, and at the same time set about to rescue China’s industrial co-operatives, which were founded by both of us and Louis Alley in early 1938. From 1937 until 1940, Snow did not even write a book, because during that time he had to go to Baguio, Philippines, to concentrate his efforts on the industrial cooperatives. I remember at that time for this matter I was furious on Snow, he was afraid, afraid to give me fuel on fire. Until we got divorced, he said to me many times: “I only think of your approval.” I am willing to undertake all the housework, social activities and research that I only want to let Snow concentrate on writing a book for him Book affects and infects the world. I have never allowed him to join one or more of these committees for fear of wasting his time or damaging his intellectual aptitude for writing masterpieces. I only hope that his name appears above the work, in order to make a contribution. Snow does not like the Commission either
