Dear Dr. Lamanna:

Under separate cover, you will receive reprints of all the papers
still available from the list you requested.

If you are interested in the Bacillus-mesentericus-anthracis
transformation, I would appreciate any comments that you might have
after reading their report. A more complete account than that in
the Experientia reference cited 1a a paper in English "Induced Mutation
on Bacillus anthracis and Bacillus mesentericus", Manninger,2. and
Nogradi,A., Hungarica Acta Phyalologica, I (6): 1-5. Perhaps I quoted
them a bit loosely, but I could not find enough detaile at the time
to warrant ay more detailed citation.

‘Sincerely yours, .
i é -
