Dr. W. Albert Noyes, Jr. Editor
Journal of the American Chemistry Society
University of Rochester
Rochester 3, New York
Dear Albert:
I received a copy of your letter of September 29 to Dr. Lind, about Fajans' review of my book.
You may be interested to know that in New York Dr. Fajans met me at a reception and attacked me with great vigor, about the report that I rendered to you of an article that he and another man had submitted for publication in the Journal of the American Chemical Society, and that you had sent me, in order that I might serve as a referee. My report to you as a referee was a confidential one, but Dr. Fajan stated that by accident your office had included in a letter to him the signed letter that I had sent to you. You may remember that I had stated my opinion of this article frankly, without going to the trouble of phrasing the remarks in the polite way in which they would have been phrased (although the content might well have been the same) if I had been making a report directly to Fajans.
Yours truly,
Linus Pauling:W
