"You ask me some rather difficult questions. It is possible to be a first-rate technical mathematician without ever bothering about foundations; and, conversely, one may be first-class on foundations without being expert in other parts of mathematics. I have not myself worked at mathematical logic, except sometimes, spasmodically, since 1914 and I am, therefore, hardly the best person to advise you."

On verso of Casshyap's letter.

"Thank you for your interesting letter of November 8. So far as I can tell it will be quite convenient to see you on December 1, but you had better ring up, as you suggest, a few days beforehand. I think you would do well to tackle the first volume of Principia Mathematica which I do not think you would find difficult. You can skip the demonstrations which are only put in to confute the sceptics. No previous knowledge of any kind is required for reading the book."

"I have never opposed the removal of nuclear installations in Cuba and am glad that this was, in fact, carried out. It was not the desire for their removal that I thought contemptible, but the fact that the matter was not negotiated. Also I object to it being said that Cuba has no right to go Communist if it wishes.

Your suggestion that newspapers might be exchanged by countries involved in the Cold War might, if implemented, make a small contribution to easing tension, however, the fact that most western newspapers are owned by wealthy men who have no desire to see the Cold War terminated would create difficulties for even this modest proposal."
