Enclosed is an analysis of the May-Johnson Bill, which is one of the best we've seen. I hope it will be useful in helping to shape any final statement.

I enjoyed my talk with you immensely, and as a result of it feel that our objectives can be successful, if we do not delay. I will call you Tuesday and in the meantime intend to contact other scientists and educators at UCLA

With kindest regards,

Sincerely,

George Pepper

Executive Secretary
