Dear Helen,
for
Thank you, for your letter of December &X& 23.

What I ha@ told Professor Lederberg when I talked to him

in Pavia s as follows to the best of my recollection.

1) That some time ago we had got together a number of

popular articles and had given them to a publisher ( Manisha
Grapthalaya). That before the articles were published

I Mad wishéd them all to be dated, i.e. the date of their

or ginal publicwtion ascertained in order to print alongside

‘| article, and I had asked the publishers to do this

but I hadiinot heard from them again.

2) That m@st articles that were published in India or

since Haldane went to India woul be available in typescript bic
form with’ Hari and it would be af job to find cut the dates oA)
of allarticles and where they were published. *

Profeseor ihederberg had offered copying facilities ‘Gn the
U.S.A, and glso perhaps obtaining money from a publisher
to finance’ any research that would be necessary in order
to get articles ready to be reprinted. This money would
of couse "be in the nature of an advance.
\
I wonder whether you received my letter written aftey
my ¢onversation with Professor Lederberg. I am still valting
for your cqmments ans suggestions in this regard.

Yours sincerely,

a

(s.p. Jayakar)

aed. Professor Lederberg
