Dr. Alexander Sachs bas written :you, under date of June l, the attached letter, enclosing a oop:y of h1s test1mon:y, given last November before the Senate Committee on Atomic Energ:y~

I could wish that Dr, Sachs understood the value of clear and simple Englishl I have difficulty in making out what he is driving at~

I gather that he thinks that, in cons1deri.ng the future of atomic energy, we should go back to the kind of 1 a:yntheaia1 between 1politioal and moral strategy and war teohnolog:y1 e:z:empl1!1ed in a proposal he submitted in N0 vember, 1944, See Page 2 of h1s letter, at top of page, beginning "Following a successful teat •••• •

Paragraph 4, Page 561 of h1s testimony, to which he refers in h1s letter, apparently raters to the o1.rcumstances under which h1s proposal was sub­mitted in November, 1944~

Apparently h1s letter has not yet been answered~
