MEMORANDUM TO ALL PARTICIPANTS -- SEVENTH CONFERENCE ON SCIENCE AND WORLD AFFAIRS

Certain difficulties have arisen in connection with the sites originally
selected for the Conference -- Woods Hole, Massachusetts and Aspen, Colorado.
It has been decided, therefore, to hold the meetings in a single location and
The Lodge at Smeglers Notch in Stowe, Vermont has been selected. Ali other
conference plans are unchanged: the period from September 5 through September 8
will be devoted to discussion of international cooperation in science, and the

riod from September 10 through September 17 will be spent on the subject of
disarmament and arms control.

Stowe is located in northern Vermont at the base of Mount Masefield.

It is 36 miles from Burlington, 22 miles from Montpelier. From New York,
Eastern Airlines flies to Burlington. From Boston, Northeast Airlines flies
to Montpelier and Burlington.

The normal average tenperature range at Stowe during the Corference
period is 50 ~ 75 degrees fahrenheit. The facilities at the Lodge inciude
an outdoor heated swimming pool, tennis courts, horseback riding stables,
and goly course. In addition, on Mount Mansfield many hiking trails are
available from the top of the chairlift. Bring the necessery clotbes and

equipment if you are interested in any of these leisure activities.
