Letter from LP [Signed by Linda Hopkins] to Charles Spencer Chaplin. [Filed under LP Correspondence: (Charles Chaplin), #64.3]

4 April 1965

Mr. Charles Spencer Chaplin

Vovey, Vaud

SWITZERLAND

Dear Mr. Chaplin:

I am writing to ask if you would be willing to help in the fight against the acquisition of nuclear weapons by Switzerland, a question that will, I understand, be brought to the people on 26 May 1963.

I enclose a copy of the Oslo Statement, in which the danger to the world that would result from the spread of nuclear weapons is discussed.

I am sending a copy of this letter to say friend Mr. Heinrich Buchbinder, who is a leader in the peace movement in Switzerland, and is one of the three presidents of the European Federation Against Nuclear Arms. Mr. Buchbinder lives at Reginastrasse 12, Zurich 2/58 telephone 45 79 28. He is a journalist, and I have been closely associated with him in some of the international peace activities.

I hope that you will find it possible to discuss this matter with Mr. Buchbinder.

I remember with pleasure the one occasion when we were together at a social function in Hollywood.

Sincerely yours,

Linus Pauling:lh

4 April 1963

Dear Linus

Mama and I were shocked to hear about your serious accident. It must he a terrible experience to come so close to death. We are sorry not to have been able to visit you and help cheer you up.

Our lecture tour went along all right. On about the third day Mama had an elevated temperature, but she was careful not to overwork, and she then began to improve rapidly. All of the meetings were successful - in Chicago there were nearly 2,000 people who came, at $2.00 apiece ($1.00 for students), to hear us. This meeting had been arranged by the American Friends Service Committee itself. We both spoke there, and also at a meeting in the Unitarian Church in Cleveland, which also was successful — by far the biggest crowd that had ever been in the church, they told us. Our other meetings were separate, addressed by either Mama or me.

Then we went to Miami, in order that I might deliver the First Baxter Lecture to the International Anesthesia Research Society. We decided to stay one day longer than we had planned, in order to make a trip through the Everglades, where we were taken by Frank Catchpool's sister and brother-in-law — Frank himself was also with us.

We were happy to have you with us at the ranch, and we wish that you could have stayed longer. We are having trouble getting back for another visit, ourselves. Probably we shall go up there about the tenth of April, for six days.

Much love from
