Mr. John Schuyten
5520 Esmond Avenue
Richmond, California
Dear Mr. Schuyten:
I am writing in answer to your letter of 30 June, which arrived in Pasadena shortly after I had started on an eastern trip.
I do not have any very good suggestions to make about places where you might apply for a position. I do not have very close contact with engineering work.
Have you had any experience on the investigation of alloys with x-rays - I mean the determination of their structure by x-ray diffraction? I hear about openings in this field occasionally, and might be able to refer you to a prospective employer.
Sincerely yours,
Linus Pauling:W
