'# 816 First Street, Coronado, California. January, 4, 1947.

Emergency Committee of Atomic Scientists, 90 Nassau St., Princeton, New Jersey

Dear Professor Einstein:-

As National Head of the Peace & Reconstruction Depart. of the Theosophical Order of Service, I found your letter of December 11th., regarding the Atom Bomb, profoundly interesting. I enclose my personal check for ten dollars to be applied to your fund and wish sincerely it could be more.

My work in the Theosophical Order of Service keeps me in touch with the various efforts going on the world in the line of reconstruction and I feel that this background information gives me a true perspective of the urgent importance of your proposed educational campaign in regard to atomic energy and the atom bomb. Truly all work for world peace is useless if there be no world! It comes down to just that, doesn't it?

We Theosophists have been thinking and teaching World Brotherhood as against Nationalistic Separativeness for over seventy-five years. As we believe the brotherhood of man is an existing fact in nature and has but to be recognized we herald with joy such movements towards that recognition as your committee embodies. Please accept my sincere wishes for success in your great attempt and I will appreciate being kept on your mailing list as I am very much interested in just how your committee intends to go about this matter of educating the public in regard to the facts of atomic power and its implications for society.

Sincerely yours, [signed] Diana G. Winslow (Diana G. Winslow) National Heat Brother Peace & Reconstruction Dept. T.O.S.
