Rotblat thanks BR for his letter informing him of his participation in the Vienna meetings of the Pugwash Conference, for which all expenses for BR and Edith will be paid, Rotblat having received $8,000 "... from a body associated with the World Health Organization in Geneva" and from the Soviet Academy of Sciences. He wishes similar grants would come from the Royal Society and the American Academy of Sciences.

"Our meeting passed off very well, even although it took us three days to go through the business. I shall be sending you the minutes of the meetings next week so that you will know what we have agreed. The most urgent matter is to send out the invitations to the various scientists."

The ribbon copy of this letter is at record 117226.
