Mark Lane offers his thanks for the Russells' support, whose "lack of concern for the attacks of those in power but without facts has been the source of the continuing inspiration for me that made this work possible." The document is a note of thanks on the draft of Lane's book, Rush to Judgment.

BR is asked for his comments on Melman's draft of Inspection for Disarmament. Melman would be grateful if BR could provide his comments by March 21, 1958.

Einstein thanks Melville for his letter and manuscript. Einstein disagrees that "people can be roused in behalf of a cause by reasoning with them." He believes that "to produce strong movements of an active character one has to possess the art to create powerful emotions or, if they exist already, to organize them." He refers to Gandhi as an example. Einstein hopes the book is successful in that it may "help to dampen dangerous nationalistic passions" and comments on Melville's style as "lucid and simple though perhaps not quite aggressive and pungent enough (I am thinking of Voltaire and Bertrand Russell)."

The letter is enclosed with Melville's manuscript of Populism and is a negative photostat of the original.

Farley, on behalf of BR, thanks Rochet for his letter. Farley tells Rochet that BR's representatives are in East Africa and that it is uncertain when they can visit Rochet. The BRPF will keep Rochet informed.
