PAUL N. MCCLOSKEY, JR. COMMITTEE ON
117H DISTRICT, CALIFORNIA GOVERNMENT OPERATIONS

AND
COMMITTEE ON

Congress of the United States MERCHANT MARINE

AND FISHERIES
House of Representatives
Washington, B.C. 20515

August 6, 1969

Dr. Joshua Lederberg
School of Medicine

Stanford University
Stanford, California

Dear Dr. Lederberg:

I noted your recent grant from the Science
Foundation and write to offer congratulations.

I would like to meet again with the Stanford
Advisory group, perhaps in October, on either a
Friday morning or Saturday morning, the 10th or
11th.

I am wondering also if in September you
might be interested in appearing before the House
Republican Task Force on Population Planning. We
had a presentation yesterday from Dr. Shockley, who
presented his arguments that the National Academy
of Science should support research into racial
heredity questions, and I am sure that the Committee
would appreciate hearing the opposing views.

Best regards,
Nees < ad
