March 13, 1953 Dear Harry: Thank you for your letter of the 10th. I have been spending all this time trying to straighten out arrangements with Cavalli. These are now reasonably well settled, and we expect to prepare a joint paper. Cavalli will be dealing directly with Chain, which should simplify matters. I am afraid it is still very much an open question whether we shall be in a position to make the trip ourselves. I did have an informal proffer from NSF, but it hardly began to approach the costs, and I could not accept (as it would have barred someone else). Best wishes for your own success in this matter. Yours, Joshua Lederberg
