| Sumario: | The article focuses on the publishing industries, publications, and authors in the state of North Carolina. Twice within the past two months, H.L. Mencken, editor of "The American Mercury" and contributor to the Baltimore "Evening Sun," has proclaimed "The Journal of Social Forces," a University of North Carolina Press publication now beginning its third volume, the most significant periodical the South has ever seen. From the North Carolina Historical Commission has come volume one of "The North Carolina Historical Review," and during the most recent tour of the Carolina Playmakers a second series of "Folk Plays" written by the Playmakers has come from the press of Henry Holt and Company. Some time during the summer an attractively printed volume of prize short stories and poems came from the North Carolina Federation of Women's Clubs, the Wachovia Historical Society issued an important historical publication, and throughout the year generally articles and an occasional book by North Carolina authors appeared in the national magazines and in the lists of national book publishers.
