Mr. Bernard Berelson
Director, Behavioral Sciences Program
The Ford Foundation
477 Madison Avenue
New York 22, N. Y.
Dear Mr. Berelson:
I am pleased to have received your letter saying that your staff is prepared to recommend that a grant be made in support of our proposed research for a period of five years.
Our Comptroller has told me that the Institute would accept the allocation of up to 10% of direct costs to the indirect costs of the research.
We shall be pleased to accept a grant as described in your letter. I enclose a revised approximate proposed annual budget. The principal change relates to X-ray crystallography as applied to this problem. I think that, when necessary, support of this phase of the work can be obtained elsewhere.
Sincerely yours,
Linus Pauling
