Rotblat thanks BR for his letter of 5 May and his cheque of £100 for Pugwash expenses.

He had not heard about Eaton receiving the Lenin Prize prior to BR's letter but writes that he is impressed.

Rotblat encloses more invitations for BR to sign and send, as well as a letter to the Home Office regarding visas for the Russians to attend the committee meeting in London.

"As you will notice the dates have now been fixed for the 21st-23rd of June, and since some of the participants will just manage to arrive for the meeting, we had reluctantly to abandon the idea of holding the meeting in Penrhyndeudraeth."

Rotblat wonders if Eaton has given up hope of the Nobel Prize.
