Dear Dr. Lederberg:

Enclosed are two manuscripts of ours which you might be
interested in. Both are in press; one in Biochem. Biophys.
Res. Comm., and the other in PNAS. I hope to have another
manuscript soon which I will send to you. It will contain
some characteristics of the genetic code derivable from these
and additional data.

Sincerely yours,

“| wd Sk N meee
