"We are instructed by Bertrand Arthur William Earl Russell and by the Bertrand Russell Peace Foundation Limited to write to you in respect of a paragraph in the issue of Newsweek dated the 17th April 1967 to which our Clients take the strongest objection. The paragraph we refer to bears the title 'Lord Russell, Texas and the V.C.' and refers to the negotiations for the sale of Lord Russell's collection of private papers ... and alleges quite falsely that Lord Russell has indicated that the proceeds of sale will go to aid the communist forces in Vietnam including the Viet-cong."
