Dear Otto:
Thanks for your letter about Finbak. I am sorry that he has not been improving more rapidly, although pleased, of course, that he continues to hold his own.
We are glad to have Ken Hedberg back here, and I think that he benefitted a great deal by his stay with you in Oslo.
I have talked with Verner about the matter of a meeting in Paris. I am sorry to say that it seems that none of our electron diffraction men will be there. It is, of course, a long way from Pasadena to Paris.
With best regards, I am
Sincerely yours,
Linus Pauling:W
