Dear Dr. Lederberg:

Md 2

Thank you for your note. I do believe that the
breakfast was very successful and timt the presentations
will have an impact on the Members and their staffs who
were present.

T

The vote in the Committee of the Whole showing a little
over 100 Members to be present is unfortunately quite cus-
tomary. Only in the most extraordinary situations do the
Members remain to participate in discussion when the House
goes into Committee,

H 90,

Sincerely,

Bret \CL
