Dear Dr. Mayer:

Congratulations on the splendid symposium on "Science and Ethics" which you arranged and carried through so successfully at the A.A.A.S. meetings in New York. Certainly it was surprising to see such a large attendance, and such keen interest.

The discussion was an admirable one. Unfortunately, it does not seem that the material is sufficient in volume to warrant book publication. This matter was discussed very thoroughly. Unless much additional material can be attained, it would simply cost too much to try to put it together in book form.

Accordingly, it is my warm recommendation that the papers be offered, in some sort of appropriate arrangement, for publication in *The Scientific Monthly*. This could be arranged to great advantage. Reprints could then be obtained, singly, or as a group.

This would be very appropriate for *The Scientific Monthly*, and further I think that it would assure much wider distribution than would be the case with a separate volume. This is a matter of importance.

It seems to me that you should follow up the symposium, with arrangements for a similar sort of discussion in another year or so. There is much more to be added, and there are many additional angles to be explored. I think a symposium could well be arranged again on the subject in another couple of years. This could explore the moral implications of various kinds of applications of scientific knowledge, it could explore the question as to whether or not there may be a scientific basis for ethics, and it might go into the question of the inter-relations of science and society with respect to such matters as the freedom and responsibility of scientists. Accordingly, the symposium might be a rather broad one, thus attracting even more attention and interest.

Here's hoping that everything thrives with you and yours. May the New Year be a very happy one for you.

Dear Professor Kissinger,

Since you do not know me let me refer to the enclosure No. 1 (curriculum vitae and report on my university-studies and my research-work). Until the end of September of this year I shall stay in Paris in order to finish a study on an aspect of French foreign-policy. In 1968/9, I shall be research fee student at the Graduate School of the London School of Economics and Political Sciences, working on certain political aspects as well as economic ones of Western European Integration.

In 1969/70 I should like to do political research work in the United States. In this respect I am contacting you since I have been most impressed by your books. I am thinking of the following program: In general, I want to improve my knowledge of American studies on international politics, and in particular, I should like to study: "Developments and Perspectives of Re-Organizing Central Europe"; in enclosure No. 2 I have made some suggestions.

I would be very glad if I could work under your direction. Please, let me know whether you think that it would be possible.

Dear Professor Kissinger,

First of all I should like to congratulate you on your appoint-
ment announced by Mr. Nixon a couple of days ago. Your appoint-
ment has also been, as far as I can see, very well received in
Britain, France, and in Western Germany.

It must be fascinating for you to try to apply practically
your research-work on the foreign policy of the most powerful
state in the world, in particular nowadays since so many
"traditional rules" of diplomacy are apparently out of date
now, and since we are confronted with new problems, new dangers
and new chances. In "The troubled Partnership" you have out-
lined some mistakes of the US-Government in its dealings with
Europe, and in particular with the France of DE Gaulle. I
wish you - and the Europeans as well - that the new administra-
tion will listen to you attentively and act accordingly.

I am, of course, very very sorry that, under the new circum-
stances, you will not be able to direct my work in Harvard
next year. However, the aspects I mentioned before are a com-
fort to me. Anyway, I hope you will be able to spare some time
to see me during next year. May I also ask you to recommend me
to one of your colleagues in Harvard at the Center for Inter-
national Affairs who, you think, could supervise my work in-
stead of you ?

My work is going on very well. The text of three books is
finished: "Western European Integration from the Eastern European
Point of view"; "Austria and the Common Market" (a "white-paper"
of the Austrian Socialist Party); "The Neutrals and European
Unification". All books are in German. In the case that you find
them interesting, please, let me know, and I shall send you the
books you want. They will be printed at the latest in June next
year.

With my best wishes for the New Year,

MAR 22 1967

I am conducting an MIT research project on the attitudes and self concept of Jewish academicians. This currently involves interviewing Jewish social scientists at several Boston area universities, and that task is what leads me to contact you.

Since there is no religious register of scientists available, I have had to resort to clues and hints of various sorts in order to form my sample. Understandably, certain of the people I contact turn out not to be Jewish. My method of selection, then, is the source of error if you are one of these people.

However, on the assumption that you are a Jewish social scientist connected to a Boston area university, then I would appreciate your consent to be interviewed for this project. I realize that this is an extreme inconvenience, but I will attempt to make the interview as short as possible, and its time and place are almost totally subject to your own convenience.

I understand also that, aside from any scheduling problems, there may be some reluctance to be interviewed on a subject as personal as your feelings toward Judaism. Since I am dealing with such a small, specialized sample, the problem of being refused interviews is quite serious. Faced with such a difficult situation, I can only appeal to your professional appreciation of this predicament to try to induce you to consent. The interviews, of course, will be, and will remain, completely private.

The length of the interview is usually about 40 minutes. I tape record approximately half of it. Questions will be almost totally concerned with aspects of your Jewish attitudes and self concept. The interviews are usually conducted in the respondent's office during school hours. However, almost any other arrangements can be made for your convenience.

I will be contacting you by phone in the next few days. Please give my request your very serious consideration, because the success of this research is so highly dependent on the cooperation of the entire sample population.

Thank you.
