Deer Dr. Lederberg,

in am enclosing a completed application for
the american Cancer Society Fellowship for the purpose of obtaining
the signature of the Chairman of the Dept. of Geneties, as called
for in paragraph 31. Also I would be very much interested in your
comuents concerning the rescarch program I have outlined. As you
can see I am very much interested in a further exploration of the
formaldehyde effect. The problem you suggested interests me as
well. I do not believe that there is any dichotomy involved and
that both approaches may be valuable in explaining mutations.

ould you please return the applications to me
with the necessary signature and any coments and/or elaborations
of the research program as proposed, so that I might include such
NS suggestions in the final draft.
