Dear Dick:
Here is a first draft of a paper that I may publish.
If you have any ideas about it that you think would be interesting to me, please write.
I must say that I feel that the few cents a day involved in glutamic acid feeding (L (+)-glutamic acid costs less than one cent per gram) might well be expended, to see whether or not mentally retarded people are helped. The treatment needs to be carried on for six months or a year before a decision is made about its value. Probably, if it is valuable, it should be continued permanently for the patient.
Sincerely,
Linus Pauling
Encl.
