  24 July 1958

  President L. A. DuBridge

  California Institute of Technology

  Dear President DuBridge:

  I have discussed your letter of 15 July 1958, about the appointment of Dr. Richard W. Lippman, with Professor Ernest H. Swift.

  I pointed out to Professor Swift the great difficulty in obtaining the services of an able research man with medical training in connection with our Ford Foundation program of research on chemistry in relation to mental disease and the serious problem that would be raised in connection with my research if I could not continue to have Dr. Lippman as my right-hand man in this work. During the past two years Dr. Lippman has become more and more effective in these activities, and I am counting on him for the future.

  The work that Dr. Lippman does here (and at Pacific State Hospital) is in my opinion suitable for the title of Medical Consultant and for a non-faculty status, inasmuch as it does not overlap with teaching or general research activities. Professor Swift has pointed out that there might be some justification for giving him the title of Research Associate, but I do not believe that this is necessary.

  Sincerely yours,

  Linus Pauling:W
