ae | Augus tb20, 1956 Dear Alan: Of course we are disappointed, but we defer to your own judgment about ‘the experiment'. I would like to have som sort of try at it, but hate not yet gone into detail with Walter about it. Why don't you come up and pay us a visit anyhow? Anytime now will be convenient. We've been bhck from Woods Hole about two weeks, but my desk is first clear and I can enjoy the lab again. Yours , P.S. I wish you & Dave would do an experiment Joshua Lederberg to look for DNA transfer in F-duction. Or have you?
