Referancet Hemo, same subject, dated 23 Lugust, 1954.

1. The tuo packeges of Pegamun barzala Le and Pegamun Kericamm arrired in good conition on Angust 27th. The material was gratefully recaivad by on the plants within the next fey weeks. It appears quite certain that there Dr. andseveral other interested people who expeot to bagin ressarch will be a need for additional zeed of both plants in the near future. If still available wa suggest that an additional ons to four poumds of each type of seed be collected and forvarded. In view of the interest developing in this project it appears that it will be sasier to err in the direction of too littis rather than too much, so that even more then four pounds wonld probably be put to good se.

2. We are sorry about the misinterpretation of our dispatch whioh has led to ths delay in filling the Sleepy Grass requirasent, bovevar ve vere glad to hear that it will still be availabls. We egree that the warding of the teletype was somevhat mislsading and that it sbould have read aiditional requirenents" rather than "ney requirements."

3. There is a definite interest in any vork which has been done concerning groving coniitions of these plents, Plsase suizit any inforzation uhich your sourcs has along this line as an It is also suggested that, in the future, you subait any caterials which you zey collect undsr an process sheet in order to bettar reflect the time and effort whichyour offics hes had to put into collection of this type.

4. We will be very interested to hear ofany information which has on Pegemuaharmsla.

Chier,DG
