Pauling informs BR that he has received no replies from Rabinowitch or Hans Bethe but does have an answer from Kalven. Pauling asks BR to write a letter to Rabinowitch after reading the June, 1963 issue of the Bulletin.

At the foot of the letter, in Edith Russell's hand, is a message from BR, probably to Schoenman: "Perhaps you would reply to Pauling that I am considering what I can effectively do further. What do you think can be done—or said? Please return the copy of the Bulletin to me and this letter."
