Dear Dr. Lederberg:

mnclosed is the report on the last shipment of cultures
received from you. You will note that in large part the results
which you obtained with these cultures were confirmed. The delay
in reporting was due to the fact that we wished to establish with
certainty that the new combinations were really diphasic and not
mixtures of two types. This has been done and we can assure you
that the cultures so indicated are truly dipnasic combinations.

The reprints for which you asked, as well as some others
which may interest you, were sent under separate cover.

“With best wishes, I am
