    Dr. J. D. Watson

    California Institute of Technology

    Dear Jim:

    I am asking the participants in the symposium on the structure and function of nucleic acids to send their manuscripts to Miss Mary D. Alexander, University of Chicago Press, 5750 Ellis Avenue, Chicago 37, Illinois, by 15 June 1954. I trust that you can meet this deadline. It will be all right for Dr. Rich to be a co-author with you, if you wish.

    Sincerely yours,

    Linus Pauling: W
