Kent acknowledges the Pugwash Conference on Eaton's Nova Scotia estate and informs Eaton of the letter he received from Diego Rivera, of which he will send a copy.

"I have wired Rivera to learn from him what his intentions are and whether or not he has in mind that I should undertake its publication and circularization. Diego Rivera's name commands the greatest respect in America, and his appeal could be made to reach a far larger public than Linus Pauling's. If the appeal is launched, I would be deeply appreciative of your counsel."

Kent is getting in touch with Corliss Lamont.
