  Dear John:

  I look forward to learning more about the progress of the International Peace Movement. In particular, I am eager to have the answer to the question that I asked at Oxford and again in London—the question about the criteria for membership in the International Confederation for Disarmament and Peace.

  You may remember that at Oxford it was decided that the delegates would be sent the names and addresses of all delegates. Could you have a copy of this list sent to me by airmail?

  Also, as soon as the report is prepared by the Continuing Committee, I should like to have a copy of it. I may say that I trust that it will not be issued as a report of the Oxford Conference, because in fact the final report or statement was never submitted to the Conference for approval, rejection, or revision. Even on the Tuesday after the Conference Mr. Lee mentioned that it was being edited. Such a statement cannot, of course, be put out as the statement or report of the Oxford Conference - I, for one, am not willing to have my name attached to a document that I have not seen, in its final form.

  I look forward to learning the decision that you and Dr. Kloppenburg make about membership on the Continuing Committee.

  Both my wife and I are ill. We found the trip to Europe rather too strenuous for us. We hope, however, to be better soon.

  We send our best wishes to you in your efforts for peace.

  Cordially,

  Linus Pauling:lh
