  • Letter from G. B. Kistiakowsky, National Defense Research Committee, to LP. RE: Gives suggestions about the financial aspects of his trip. Would like to know when LP is coming. Hopes it doesn't coincide with his trip abroad. [Filed under LP Science: Assorted LP War Work, 1940-1946: Box #13.006 Folder #6.1]
  • Letter from George Hale, Jr. to LP RE: Reports that he will not be working at Cal Tech this summer, but at the local orange packing plant. Requests LP intercede on his behalf with Den Heinrichs concerning the needed grade points to apply for a half-tuition grant. (Note in left margin: "Sorry - it was almost good enough. A was given third term.") [Letter from LP to Hale June 23, 1942] [Filed under LP Correspondence: Box #165.7, file:(H: Correspondence, 1942)]
  • Letter from J. H. Martin, Assistant, Office of the Chief of Ordnance, to F. S. Gordon, Office of Scientific Research and Development. RE: Lists companies who are allowed to receive the Pauling Oxygen Meters. [Filed under LP Science: Scientific War Work - Materials re: the Pauling Oxygen Meter, 1942-1950: Box #13.002 Folder #2.3]
  • Letter from LP to F. S. Gordon, Office of Scientific Research and Development. RE: Is writing to recommend that a contract be made by the OSRD with the National Technical laboratories for the further development of a submarine type oxygen instrument. Has designed and constructed the first model. Is not satisfied with the rate at which the instrument follows changes in the air. Discusses changes which could improve the instrument. Could continue to work with it, but would like to move on to the airplane model. Is confident in Beckman's ability to produce these instruments. Would think it would be appropriate for the OSRD to give a contract. Would like to know if there is a reasonably good chance that a contract can be made.
