Dear Dr. Anderson:

I should be glad to have you include in your textbook on inorganic chemistry the diagram referred to in your letter of January 18th. I wish to point out, on the other hand, that the work of Keggin and later investigators including Bradley indicates strongly that the structure which I proposed for duodeciheteropoly acids is incorrect. The new structure resembles the one which I suggested in its general character but not in detail.

Sincerely Yours,

Linus Pauling
