Dear Thorfin:

I have just learned from Zachariasen that you are leaving at Christmas for a six months vacation in Europe, and Ava Helen and I are very happy to know that you are going to have such a good vacation. It is fine too that the Rockefeller Foundation has asked you to make a survey of biochemical work; I shall look forward to finding out what you learned when you come through Chicago or you come to Pasadena to visit us. Are you going to take the boys with you? No doubt they would profit very much from the trip at their ages, but you and Phoebe would probably have more fun if you could arrange to leave them at home.

With very best regards, I am

Sincerely yours,

Linus Pauling
