Pauling writes in response to Dounce's concerns regarding his model for nucleic acids by explaining the recent structural change he's made by rotating the phosphate groups. Pauling mentions that the x-ray data being gathered at King's College is much clearer and will resolve any measurement problems. He states his belief that in the next three years a definite structure of nucleic acids will be discovered.
