Nerewith a longish piece on arms control,
My pieces have been setting loneer, hut
they have also been on hivcer subjects. I
promise to retrench in future,

Cf course, my first wish is that you take
this intact, and T send it this early to
Bive ym the most time to piece it in,

T have alse marked the sections that could

be extracted, and still do the least violence
to the main themes of the piece. TI think they
all have sonething interesting to say, and
they are important for continuity; but if
much has to Le taken out, I styrest you fol-
low the lines of copy CC. But would you then
also use some typographical mark, like

eee K

to indicate the breaks. Maybe even also a
title like "exceppts from a Scientist's note-
book."

The article does not follow certain contem-
porary nytholosvies about arms control --
Cog. MOVERKILL"™ ~- and is quite critical of
others; Lut it is a soft sell,

Diek Garin is responsible for reviving the
Satlarid/iined Cities ANXANTKEWKNT; but I
idn't feel rieht about attributing to an une

lished Pugwash paper.  KRE RSS XXANXRYRXKNEHE
