Dear Dr. Lederberss

I have read your manuscript with sreat pleasure and I am very
giad to have it for GENETICS. Since I have been waitins for .
some other manuscripts before going to press with the September
number, it was still possible to get your paper into this number,
I must add, however, that the actual appearance of the September
number will be somewhat delayed.

I have made one or two small chanses in your manuscript which I
hope you will not disapprove of. Further, I had to use the
symbols plus and minus as ap throughout the paper. JY

Beginning next week, please address me at the Department of
Qbology, University of California, Berkeley 4, California.
With kind regards,

Sincerely yours,
Cart SE
