BOSTON (AP) -- A minute sent by a immature J.D. Salinger to Ernest Hemingway in 1946 will be put on open arrangement for the initial time at the John F. Kennedy Library in Boston.

Salinger met Hemingway in Europe during World War II, and closes the minute by revelation Hemingway that the talks they had were the usually "hopeful minutes" of his fight experience.

The letter, accessible to scholars for years, is piece of the Ernest Hemingway pick up that has been kept at the JFK Library for thirty years. It will be displayed Sunday during display of the PEN/Hemingway Award, since annually to a first-time bard of fiction.

Library executive Thomas Putnam says Salinger"s new genocide sparked new seductiveness in the letter, in that the destiny "Catcher in the Rye" writer discusses his own efforts at a well read career.
