Mr. Raymond Lee Williams

7209 Seville Avenue

Huntington Park, California

Dear Mr. Williams:

I am very pleased to say that I am now able to recommend to you a former graduate in chemistry of the California Institute of Technology who might be willing to carry on the chemical research in which you are interested. This man is Dr. James M. Carter, who received the degree of Bachelor of Science at California Institute of technology in 1926 and the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in chemistry at Western Reserve University in 1929. He has had a wide variety of chemical experience since then. He is one of the best men ever graduated from this Institute, and I can recommend him to you strongly.

Dr. Carter might he able to devote part of his time to work on your problem. I suggest that you get in touch with him directly, at 3650 Second Avenue, Highway Highlands, California, telephone Churchill 9-1849.

Sincerely yours,

Linus Pauling
