    4 March 1961

    Dear Harold:

    Thanks for your letter. My trip to New York was not thoroughly successful. I kept hoping to hear from you up to the last minute. Then on 15 February I had to decide whether to go ahead with the plan to come to New York on the 10th, despite the Congo trouble, or to change the plan. I decided to go ahead. On arriving in New York I telephoned the news agencies, and got some response - about 15 people at the press conference. However, The New York Times carried only a 5-inch article - the Post was better.

    I enclose a copy of the petition. You will be interested to see the list of initial signers, on the back. I gave out this list at the press conference.

    My wife and I are now collecting further signatures.

    Sincerely yours,

    [Linus Pauling]

    6 March 1961

    Dear Crellie,

    It was wonderful to have you here for my birthday celebration. I was sorry to see Linda go away on Saturday. She had been checked up on by Dr. Abowitz, who found nothing wrong with her.

    Mama and I are to arrive in Seattle on UAL 890, due at 7:55 P.M., Tuesday 14 March. I think that it might be better for us to stay in the hotel the two nights that we are there, but if you have room and can arrange it we would be happy to stay with you. Make any arrangement that you want for us to see George, either that night or Wednesday night.

    I think that we shall be busy with the lawyer, Mr. Francis Hoague, most of the day. I shall write to him, giving him your address and phone number, but possibly you should telephone him (Main 2-1604) in order to find out what he plans to have us do when we file the libel suit.

    We are to leave on Thursday 16 March, 2 P.M., UAL 757.

    Give our love to Lucy, Crellie, and the girls.

    Love from

    [Linus Pauling]

    14 March 1961

    Dear Crellin,

    Mama pointed out to me that we had not yet turned over to you the remaining sum to be paid to you in accordance with Mr. E, W. Crellin's Will.

    The original sum was $1,300, endorsed to you by Mr. Crellin on 14 April 1939, as a Christmas present.

    Rather, the note was for $1,300.00, dated 14 April 1939, and it was transferred to you on 25 December 1945.

    We agreed on an interest rate of four percent from that time, making the value on 25 December 1954 equal to $1,863.29.

    Various changes in the balance caused it to become equal to $540.70 on, I judge, 25 December 1955. The sum of $544.70 is given in my letter of 3 October 1956 to you.

    I have decided to use six percent interest rate, compounded annually, from that time until 25 March 1961, bringing the total amount due to you to $739.40. My check for this amount is enclosed.

    Probably Mama and I shall see you before this letter reaches you.

    Much love from

    [Linus Pauling]

    Dear Mama and Daddy,

    There was a most pathetic scene at the airport just as your plane left: One of the last people to get on the plane was a young man who was reluctant to bid adieu to his lady love, a tall, heavily made up, dyed hair wench. As the plane started to taxi away, this female dissolved in tears. Somehow it seemed incongruous to me to see a dame who looked like this one behaving like that.

    Lucy and I and, of course, the girls were most tickled to see you in our little house. It is too bad that Mt. Baker wasn't out, but perhaps when you come next the weather will be better. Perhaps the course of your suit will be such that you and Peter will be here at the same time next summer. Wouldn't that be fun?

    The birthday party for Uncle George was a great success. He was surprised speechless, he didn't have much to say all evening, which as you know is unusual for him. I think that he was really touched; I knew that he was the one who would appreciate the most such a party. There were eight of your siblings there; I was Ava's baby for an evening! Besides George, there was L. Gorgo, Clay and Nettie B., Milton and Dorcas, Nettie, Mary and her husband, Lillian (Dick) and her husband, and mirabile dictu, Aunt Pat! I was certainly surprised to see Pat, and had a good time talking to her. Unfortunately for us, she ran off to Oregon the next day, before we could have her over to supper. But she sort of half promised to come back, since her airplane ticket is Seattle-Philadelphia. She told me to scold you for not being here.

    I told George what you had told me about his specs...I think that he was tickled about that, too. He wondered how you knew he needed them. I told him that you had asked me to keep an eye on him to be sure that he gets them, and I offered to find out about a Doctor for him.

    I am going to try brewing some home-brew. Home-brew costs about six or seven cents a quart, and if it is any good and if one can borrow the crock, which I have, one ought to be able to save a little money.

    Love from us all

    Crellin

  • Letter from LP to G. Wilkinson, RE: LP thanks Wilkinson for the references, but doesn't think that Wilkinson has answered LP's main question from his letter of March 15th. LP did not ask for references to the whole molecular-orbital method and ligand-field theory, but rather that Wilkinson provide one case in which he discusses some important structural problem by each of these methods. At Wilkinson's suggestion, LP has reread Moffit's article of 1954 on dicyclopentadienyl compounds. LP finds the article interesting, but says that no chemist could possibly understand it without unusual mathematical background and experience, and that in spite of Moffit's complex mathematics, Moffit himself admitted that he could not come to an absolute conclusion in regards to the nature of titanium biscyclopentadienyl. LP still hopes that Wilkinson can offer a non-mathematical discussion in which either the molecular-orbital method or the ligand-field treatment is given of some structural problem, so that LP can include it in the next edition of his book.

  • Letter from LP to Gail Draper, James Kew School. [Note from Gail Draper to LP, undated] [Filed under LP Correspondence: (D: Correspondence, 1960-1966), #99.2]
    29 March 1961

    Dear Miss Draper:

    I am afraid that I am not able to answer the question that you have asked in your letter. You ask why a bird loses its sense of direction when it enters a radar area. I had not heard that this effect was caused by radar. Moreover, I myself do not know how it is that a bird preserves its sense of direction.

    In addition, we must always be sceptical about reported observations. I think that it might be difficult for an observer or experimenter to be sure that a bird loses its sense of direction when it enters a radar field. For example, there is the possibility that the electric field of the radar vibrations would interact with some particles in the semicircular canals of the bird in such a way as to make it feel sick or dizzy, and not to behave in a normal manner, and there are other possibilities also. The loss of sense of direction would be a minor part of the whole group of effects caused by the radar waves.

    Sincerely yours,

    [Linus Pauling]
