Dear Dracy:
On receipt of your letter of November 15th I spoke

to Lindegren and asked him to send you immediately a copy
of his revised manuscript. Ha agread to do that.

 

The difficulty as I see it is this. A drastic revision
of Giscussion based upon the revised manuscript wmld, of
course, necessitate the revision of Lindegren's reply. All
of this would take time which Demerec does not think is available,
so that probably the only two alternatives open to us is
either to leave the discussion as is or to delete it. It
was on the bagis of these two alternatives that I sugsested
deletion as the fairest solution. I really do not see what
else can be done without delaying inordinately the appearance
of the volume. However, primarily this is Denmreso's concern, —
and it is entirely up to him to make a decision on the matter.

I really regret deeply that this unfortunate situation
arose but there was very little I could do to prevent it.

Cordially yours,
Sek
