Dear Dr. Lederberg:

You probably didn't have a chance to see the attached newspaper
article, but it will interest you I believe. The paragraphs which
I have underlined pretty well express my position.

Thanks for sending me a copy of your speech. It really was
great. I enjoyed reading it very much and when I have a moment
of leisure I hope to write you about it.

I'm enclosing also a speech by Dr. Cooke. Cooke is a great guy
in my book, and I guess this speech shows why I think so.

Sincerely,

9 1963
