Margaret Anderson was 43 when she published the first volume of her autobiography "My Thirty Years' War" in 1930.  She had published the Little Review from 1914 to 1929, serialising Ulysses with Ezra Pound's help from 1918 to 1921. "Our thirty minutes war's alull." seems to be FW's only allusion to her-- though they were both in Paris from 1924 to 1940, Ellmann says nothing about them crossing paths.
