Mr. Philip Padva
340 East 92nd Street
Los Angeles, California
Dear Mr. Padva:
Because of the demands on my time at present, I am not able to come to your shop to see the operation of your integrator. Moreover, I note from your letter that you do not propose to reveal the method of operation of the device, and it is my policy not to participate in demonstrations under such circumstances. I am returning the photograph which you sent with your letter.
Yours truly,
Linus Pauling
