3 June 1961
Dear Pete,
Here it is, travelling time again, so I get busy and do all the things (or most, anyway) I've been supposed to do for the last six months.
Anyway, it was really fine to see you in February, and I hope we can get together again this summer. For your information, we will be passing briefly through London both on the way in and the way out of Geneva. Anita and I hope to make a special trip in sometime during the summer, but I suppose that plan is subject to scuttling.
We're coming in on PAA #104, June 13, at 7:10 AM, and leaving BEA #556, June 13, at 10:20 AM.
Incidentally, Linie is travelling with the Stumps and they will all be coming into London PAA#2 at 7:45 AM on June 18, staying for a couple of days, supposedly with Joy, except that no one has heard from Joy for the last six months and we are therefore worried about her. Do you know what is going on with her? The Stumps have your address and will no doubt contact you.
Then, I'm returning to Honolulu for two or three weeks in July, then back to Geneva for August. We leave Geneva August 29 on BEA #555, arriving London 2:15 PM, then leaving on PAA #121 at 4:30 same day for Los Angeles, where we'll spend several days.
[...]
I enclose also the long-promised check for the tape-recorder, and I propose to start sending you some tapes when you get a stereo setup in operation.
I hope, again, that we can spend some time together this summer. Perhaps you could come to Geneva or perhaps we could go off somewhere while Anita is visiting Joy in London (or Joy visiting Anita in Geneva). Anyway much love to you, and we're anxious to know how things are going with you, Julia and the children.
[Linus Pauling, Jr.]

THE GENESIS OF IDEAS
by Linus Pauling.
I propose to talk about the genesis of ideas, the process of originating ideas.
Having ideas is a part of thinking. Some people have said that thinking is the process of solving problems. Professor John Cohen said some years ago in NATURE that thinking is much broader than this in scope: that in much of our thinking we are groping to find out what needs to be done rather than how it needs to be done. Some of the most significant new ideas in science involve the recognition of new problems.
Many scientists have been interested in the question of the way in which scientific discoveries are made. A popular idea is that scientists apply their powerful intellects in the straightforward, logical induction of new general principles from known facts and the logical deduction of previously unrecognized conclusions from known principles. This method is, of course, sometimes used; but much advance in knowledge results from mental processes of another sort - in large part unconscious processes. Henry Poincare in his essay on mathematical creation said that knowledge of mathematics and of the rules of logic is not enough to make a man a creative mathematician; he must also be gifted with an intuition that permits him to select from among the infinite number of combinations of mathematical entities already known, most of them absolutely without interest, those combinations that will lead to useful and interesting results. In illustration, he described his investigations on the nature of the Fuchsian functions, which he had discovered while working at Caen. He left Caen on a geologic excursion, and for some tine, while traveling, made no conscious effort to attack the problem; then one day, as he put his foot on the step of an omnibus, the idea suddenly came to him that the transformations that he had used to define the Fuchsian functions are identical with those of non-Euclidian geometry. Several days later he verified this discovery by detailed analysis.
From my own experience I have come to the conclusion that one way for me to have a new idea is to set my unconscious to work on a problem. This is probably what the Persian philosopher Avicenna, a thousand years ago, also did when he was unable to solve a problem. He would go to the mosque and pray for his understanding to be opened and his difficulties to be smoothed away; he probably had fixed the problem in his mind before going to the mosque, and his nature was such that his unconscious could then set to work on it.
I doubt that the unconscious can be directed to work on a problem. But the problem can be suggested to it, and if it is interested in it something may result. C. G. Jung has said that art is a kind of innate drive that seizes a human being and makes him its instrument. A creative scientist is an artist - an artist whose ideas are in the field of science. W. W. Sawyer has described the behavior of school boys who are born mathematicians. They have mental venturesomeness: when one of them is told that no one has ever trisected an angle by means of ruler and compass alone, he attempts to carry out this operation; when he has been shown how to solve a quadratic equation by completing the square, he tries to solve a cubic equation by completing the cube; he has the desire to explore that marks the creative mathematician, and he may, throughout his life, have an unconscious that concerns itself, day after day (and also night after night) with the field of mathematics.
Herbert Spencer has written that it was never his way to set himself a problem and puzzle out an answer; that instead the conclusions at which he had from time to time arrived had been arrived at unawares, each as the ultimate outcome of a body of thoughts that slowly grew from a germ.
I once heard a commencement speaker say that there is no place in the world for the man who works just to satisfy his own curiosity, that instead everybody should work for the solution of problems that will benefit the world. He was an engineer, primarily interested in the application of knowledge to the solution of practical problems. But he had forgotten that the knowledge that he wishes to apply must first be obtained, and that to obtain it is not easy. The knowledge that we have about the world, and that is applied, for the benefit of mankind, to the problems of technology and medicine, has in the main been obtained by men who were satisfying their curiosity about the nature of the world; by pure scientists and mathematicians.
The progress in the physical sciences and in technology that has taken place during recent decades has been based in large part on the developments in mathematics of the last two hundred years. Most of the mathematicians whose work has turned out to be fundamental to practical progress - did not make their mathematical discoveries for the use of the engineer, but rather to satisfy their own curiosity. Often a field of mathematics is not found to be valuable in technology for a long time - it is rarely that a mathematician sees his discoveries put to practical use during his lifetime.
I could mention many examples of important discoveries in the field of physics and chemistry that have resulted from the effort of a scientist to satisfy his curiosity. It is, of course, possible to be curious about trivial matters - as Poincare said, a good mathematician has an intuition that leads him to select a significant field about which to be curious. During the years just before 1900 Max Planck became curious about the observed distribution of intensity with wavelength of the light given out by a heated body. His curiosity led him to discover the quantum of action, Planck's constant - one of the most important discoveries ever made. It is unlikely that Planck would have made this discovery if his interest in the radiation had been a practical one; he might well, instead of discovering the quantum theory, have developed an improved pyrometer, permitting high temperatures to be measured with greater accuracy than before, and the world would have suffered accordingly.
Let us return to the question of the genesis of ideas. Albert Tyler has told me that Thomas Hunt Morgan once said to him that a little idea is enough to permit a scientist to get started. He told Tyler that even a simple experiment, when carried out, may suggest another one, and that another one, until, as the result of a succession of experiments and ideas, some significant discovery is made. As a geneticist, he might have said that ideas breed ideas.
I was interested to learn, nearly twenty years ago, that there may be a great difference in the attitude toward the world of a biologist and a physicist. In the period between 1956 and 1939, when I had extended discussions with Dr. Karl Landsteiner about the problems of immunochemistry, I found that his attitude toward this subject was much different from mine - I think that his attitude was that of the experimental biologist, or at any rate of some experimental biologists, and my attitude was that of the theoretical physicist. He had the idea that nature must force us to accept ideas about the world. Often he would ask "What conclusions about the structure of antibodies and the nature of serological reactions are we forced to accept by these results of experiment and observation?" On the other hand, I would ask "What ideas about this question, as general and as esthetically satisfying as possible, can we have that are not eliminated by these results of experiment and observation?"
Both of these attitudes toward the world are valuable; each of them provides a way of analyzing the situation, and each can lead to the suggestion of new experiments. I think that the great success that the theoretical physicists have had during the past sixty years in increasing our understanding of the world suggests that their method should be more generally applied also in other fields of science; perhaps also in the social sciences, to the extent that these fields of knowledge can be made sufficiently precise.
The determination of the structure of crystals by the diffraction of x-rays provides interesting illustrations of the ways in which scientific progress is achieved. If the structure of a crystal is sufficiently simple, it can be determined from the observed x-ray diffraction pattern by straightforward, completely logical arguments. This method was largely used during the early years of x-ray diffraction, around 1920, and also during recent years. Another method, the stochastic method, was used with much success during the intermediate period. I applied the adjective stochastic to this method in 1933 at the suggestion of Karl K. Darrow, who referred me to the use of the word by the chemist Alexander Smith. In his "Inorganic Chemistry," 1909, page 142, he wrote "When Mitscherlich discovered that Glauber's salt gave a definite pressure of water vapor, he at once formed the hypothesis, that is, supposition, that other hydrates would be found to do likewise. Experiments showed this supposition to be correct. The hypothesis was at once displaced by the fact. This sort of hypothesis predicts the probable existence of certain facts or connections of facts, hence, reviving a disused word, we call it a stochastic hypothesis. (This derives from a Greek word meaning apt to divine the truth by conjecture.) It differs from the other kind in that it professes to be composed entirely of verifiable facts and is subjected to verification as quickly as possible."
In the stochastic method of treating very complex crystals a plausible structure is guessed with the aid of hints provided by the observed size of unit and space-group symmetry, as well as knowledge of general principles of molecular structure, and the stochastic hypothesis that this is the actual structure of the crystal is thereupon either verified or disproved by the comparison of calculated and observed x-ray intensities.
I may mention that mathematicians have recently used the word stochastic in a different sense. The stochastic methods of the mathematician involve the idea of randomness. Professor Nicholas D. Cheronis has pointed out to me that the use of the word stochastic by the Greeks did not contain the slightest suggestion of the random. Instead, Aristotle, Plato, Galon, and other classical authors used it in the sense of endeavoring to arrive at a conclusion or a solution of a problem at hand by thoughts from within, by reflective thinking, making a good guess.
In order for the stochastic method to be significant the principles used in formulating a stochastic hypothesis must be restrictive enough to make the hypothesis itself essentially unique; that is, an investigator who makes use of this method should be allowed only one guess. If he were allowed many guesses he would sooner or later make one that was not in disagreement with the limited number of test points, but there would then be little justification for accepting that guess as correct.
The problems that are now being attacked by science are so difficult that we cannot afford to overlook any possible aid to their solution. I think that the time has come to carry out a penetrating study of the principles of the stochastic method, in order to get a better understanding of it and to make it more powerful. We need to study the general problem of the genesis of ideas. I think that it is not unlikely that young men can be given some training in having ideas - would not instruction in the art of having ideas about good experiments be just as valuable to the young experimental scientist as Instruction in laboratory technique? I doubt, however, that we know enough at the present time about the genesis of ideas to plan a course of instruction.
Twenty five years ago the Division of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering of the California Institute of Technology adopted the system, which has been used for many years in Holland, of requiring each candidate for a doctor's degree to submit a set of original propositions, about a dozen in number - that is, to formulate a dozen new ideas that he is prepared to defend at his doctor's examination. The young men who have been faced with this task have met the challenge with varying degrees of success. Probably all of them learned from the experience that original ideas are not easily got. Probably every one of them would have been grateful to have had at hand a book discussing the problem of how to have ideas.
Some years ago E. Bright Wilson, Jr., of Harvard University, told me that he was planning to write a book on how to carry out scientific research, and intended to discuss the matter with a number of men who had carried out research successfully. I thought that the book would be on the problem of how to have ideas. His book was published nine years ago - "An Introduction to Scientific Research"; it is a fine book, but it is a book about how to work after you have had your ideas, and not how to have ideas. The statement in the book that comes closest to our problem is the following, from the first page: "Usually it is desirable to have new ideas of some sort before undertaking a problem..." I wish that this statement, instead of standing alone, had been followed by a hundred pages of discussion.
My own experience, which I may illustrate in my talk by some examples, has suggested to me that it is possible to train the unconscious to help in the discovery of new ideas. I reached the conclusion some years ago that I had been making use of my unconscious in a well-defined way. I had developed the habit of thinking about certain scientific problems as I lay in bed, waiting to go to sleep. Sometimes I would think about the same problem for several nights in succession, while I was reading or making calculations about the problem during the day. Then I would stop working on the problem, and stop thinking about it in the period before going to sleep. Some weeks or months might go by, and then, suddenly, an idea that represented a solution to the problem or the germ of a solution to the problem would burst into my consciousness.
I think that after this training the subconscious examined many ideas that entered my mind, and rejected those that had no interest in relation to the problem. Finally, after tens or hundreds of thousands of ideas had been examined in this way and rejected, another idea came along that was recognized by the unconscious as having some significant relation to the problem, and this idea and its relation to the problem were brought into the consciousness.
As the world becomes more and more complex and the problems that remain to be solved become more and more difficult, it becomes necessary that we increase our efforts to solve them. A thorough study of the general problem of the genesis of ideas and the nature of creativity may well be of great value to the world.

14 June, 1961
Dear Mama and Daddy:
It certainly was nice to talk to you on the telephone on my birthday, I had thought of calling you, but I didn't know if you were home, and so its good I didn't. I had sort of a pleasant birthday; Lucy's mother sent me a really lovely terra cotta hand knit sweater, about the color of Linus' old Porsche. It is just lovely, nice and warm. The girls pasted some nice birthday cards for me, and Lucy painted a couple of five foot sex-pot nudes. She knows my taste! She also bought me an electric hair clippers, so she can cut my hair.
We have borrowed a piano for the duration of our stay here in Seattle, just for the cost of having moved over here. We have it in our bedroom, which as a result isn't nice and spacious the way it was but it is worth it to have a piano.
We like our little house more and more all the time. The view over the lake is really lovely, and the yard is very nice, especially for the girls. Our roses, which are more or less neglected, appear to be the best in the neighborhood. They have been blooming very well for a month or so now. We have set out a few tomato plants, and just this evening, have gotten some cucumber seedlings.
I have also gotten myself a Lightning class sailboat. Although it is sort of expensive, I rationalize it by my enjoyment of sailing, and the fact that this area is a very good one for sailing. Boats are fair investments, in that they do not depreciate much, but on the other hand they do not earn interest. I am quite happy with my new toy, and I think that I shall enjoy having it and sailing around the lake. If I ever take any I'll send you a picture of it. Even better, if you come up here during the summer I'll take you for a sail.
Speaking of coming up here, do you have any idea when you might do just that? Peter will be here for a couple of weeks early in August, and it might be fun if you came while he is here. Also Linus mentioned coming here, I think in September.
As usual, my letter writing got interrupted, and hence put off. I received notification today that I have been awarded a USPHS predoctoral research fellowship, for one year, starting 15 Sept. The stipend for me is smaller than that which I currently receive, but it has a dependent allowance, giving a net of $4000 for the year, plus tuition. In view of this, perhaps we might cut down on the size of the allowance you send us, or alternatively I may put some of said allowance into savings. Incidentally, thank you for the recent increase in the allowance. Getting this PHS fellowship is nice not only because of the increased stipend, it also has a certain prestige attached. Needless to say I feel pretty good about it.
The sailboat is purely a capital 'investment.' It is a good one, in good shape, that doesn't require a lot of work, and hence time, to keep up, and I have been advised by my friends in the sailing fraternity that it was a good buy. All first rate equipment.
This is $1000 more than my current fellowship.
Crellie is quite a boy – he turns over, crawls a little, has nice blue eyes. He is still very good. Cheryl's birthday is pretty soon. We will go on a picnic. It might be fun if you were to come then, too. She would be tickled pink!

14 June 1961
Dear Mr. President:
I am writing in support of the petition for executive clemency for Fred and Marie Haug that has, I understand from a letter from Marie Haug, been presented to you.
My wife and I have read about the case, and on 18 March 1961, when we were in Cleveland attending the annual meeting of the American Humanist Association (I had been awarded the honor of having been designated Humanist of the Year), we talked with Fred and Marie Haug. The personal impression that we formed of Mr. and Mrs. Haug was a thoroughly favorable one.
Mrs. Haug is now in the Women's Federal Reformatory, at Alderson, West Virginia, and her husband is scheduled to go to jail when she is released.
It is my understanding that the relevant section of the Taft-Hartley Law under which they were convicted has been repealed and also that there is some doubt of the guilt of Mr. and Mrs. Haug, even under the law as it existed at the time of their conviction. I feel that the granting of executive clemency to Mr. and Mrs. Haug would be in accordance with the principles of justice and mercy, and I recommend this action to you.
Sincerely yours,
[Linus Pauling]

- Letter from LP to William Butler, RE: LP does not think that Butler answered LP’s argument from the June 15th letter.

They share the American scientists' concern about the course of the negotiations, but disagree about the reasons of conditions at the conference. They feel that the U.S. and England are responsible for the complication of the conference, and their main issue deals with having a panel of three people (one each from the USSR, U.S., and England) in charge of inspection vetoes, as opposed to a single official.

Dear Linus,
I am moved to write to tell you again how much I like the pin of two superimposed Kekule structures for benzene that you gave me on my birthday.
I have worn it everyday now, since receiving it - for nearly four months. I wear it in my tie, as I did when I first received it. For a few days I wore it in my lapel, but I decided that I liked better having it in my tie.
I feel that this symbol represents my work as well as any could, and I am happy that you should have had it made and have given it to me.
Mama and I celebrated our 38th wedding anniversary yesterday, by forgetting about it. She reminded me of it at about six o'clock in the evening, as we were driving to Los Angeles to have dinner with some friends. We had stopped in to see Dr. MacMillan in the afternoon, to help him celebrate his ninetieth birthday. Mrs. MacMillan died about two years ago. Dr. MacMillan is in moderately good shape. I doubt that he lays down any permanent memories anymore. Edwin was there, and John, who is Catherine MacMillan’s son. Catherine will come in next month, on a visit. Her husband is Professor of Aeronautics at Johns Hopkins.
Much love from,
[Linus Pauling]

Monday 26 June, 1961
Dear Parents,
Thank you for the telegram. I am beginning negotiations for this house. It is a compromise in some ways, but I think a fairly good one.
The advantages are that it is in an ideal position. It is on the west end of the terrace of houses opposite where we are now; that is it is a semidetached house with a path around the side to the back. The garden is nice and the communal garden of a couple of acres behind the house is magnificent, the best of these gardens with open grass and clumps of bushes and trees. Not too prim and not too rough. The end house is a little bigger than the terraced houses, though not much. The house has five floors; an open basement, three good floors and two rooms in the attic. I think we would live primarily on the ground floor and the basement. There are three trees in the front on the street side, and a couple of trees in the gardens on either side. It is very aesthetic. Trees are a mixed blessing as they cut out light and drop leaves but all told I am in favour of them. It is a very nice looking house. We would have to do some work on the basement, put in an electrically heated floor of concrete in the basement (absolute necessity in London clay) and a good kitchen and bathroom. The house is number 79 Elgin Crescent. The house is I think in quite good repair, though I shall be sure shortly.
The disadvantages are that the house is leasehold - that is, after 67 years it belongs to someone else. The ground rent is $25 a year. This is not a real disadvantage and I think we shall be able to buy the freehold for a few hundred dollars. Possibly not. The other and more important disadvantage is that there are sitting tenants on the first floor and in the attic. This is a nuisance but I think a good investment. There is a good chance of getting rid of the tenants in a reasonable time, the old girl in the attic will be moved to an old folks home and the people on the first floor may move. The point is that we can live on the bottom two floors plus my study on the second and the lowering of the purchase price due to these tenants makes it a good investment to wait for them to go. The owner wants to go to Australia and so time is on our side.
I do not know what the best thing to do about money. I think this house is a good investment; houses in big cities are going up in value though I think we have missed the great rapid upsurge in prices here in London. I can borrow about half the amount of money I need to do it from my bank, I think. At 6% or 6½%. That is cheaper than a mortgage from a building company or someone. Now if you wish to invest your money somewhere else, I can borrow half or so from the bank. Also, interest on borrowed money is tax deductable by me, but of course you must pay tax at a higher rate on the interest so I suppose there is not much point in my paying you interest but there is point in paying the bank interest. I shall ask my lawyer what the cheapest way is, but it probably should be the cheapest way for you. I think property in central London is a good investment. Rents per floor for a house vary from about £3 unfurnished for friends to about £10 furnished.
The point is that we can live quite well on the three free floors, without contact with these tenants. Their rent at present totals $470 a year, which just pays the taxes for the city and a sort of income tax. When the tenants move, which they must sometime, the capital value of the house will go up by $5000.
I think I can drive a better bargain by being able to pay cash on the nail. Mortgages are very hard to get on these houses, because there are too many standard, suburban houses which are so safe. Capital is getting tight here now.
It is a beautiful house and an excellent position. The thing to do is to fix the basement and ground floor for us, and later when these tenants are moved out to do another good job on the upper part. They are a nuisance, but I think they do not upset life really and the house and its position are so nice that it is worth it.
I have been working fairly hard. Lot to do. I have been seeing a fellow named Fletcher twice a week and talking about me. We have accomplished quite a lot and I am very optimistic. Perhaps Julia can go to him later. His attitude about people is very good, it would help her a lot if she paid attention. I am feeling that I can live with her quite happily. The children are loves. Thomas is really quite smart. He is nice. Sarah is a rough tough kid. She will be a tart.

The Neutron Bomb
By Linus Pauling
Fresno, 28 June 1961
The neutron bomb, now (also 12 May 1960) being sponsored by Sen. Thomas J. Dodd, is a greater fraud than the so-called clean bomb. It is a political weapon, not a military weapon.
The standard weapon today is the three-stage megaton superbomb. It kills the enemy population in four ways: by blast, by fire, by immediate radiation, and by local fallout. Of these the last may cause the greatest number of deaths in a megaton war.
The "clean" bomb decreases the local fallout.
We know how to make bombs much "cleaner" than the standard megaton bombs, and the Russians know too. But we do not stockpile them, and the Russians do not stockpile them, because we and they want the added effectiveness of local fallout; we want to kill the enemy with local fallout as well as with blast, fire, and immediate radiation. Also, the "cleaner" bombs are more expensive and more bulky than equivalent standard superbombs. The Pentagon is not interested in clean bombs.
The "neutron" bomb, if it were made, would decrease not only local fallout but also blast and fire. Its effectiveness would be due to immediate radiation only. The neutron bomb would be much inferior as a weapon to the "clean" bomb, very much inferior to the standard superbomb.
The Russians could meet an attack by neutron bombs much better by using their existing standard megaton bombs than by using neutron bombs.
The "clean" bomb (1957) fizzled out militarily, but it put off the bomb-test negotiations for a year -- it was a political success. President Eisenhower was the dupe of the H-bomb scientists and defense contractors. Now it is Senator Dodd who is their dupe; President Kennedy's scientific advisors are too smart to let him be caught.
The neutron bomb is part of Sen. Dodd's efforts to stop the bomb-test negotiations in Geneva.
