Letter to "Professor Paton," in part: "I am glad to learn from Sir Solly Zuckerman that you are ready to join the Central Advisory Council for Science and Technology…The appointment would be understood as being in your personal capacity and not representing any specific interest, either Governmental or non-governmental, or any particular field of scientific or technological activity. My intention in creating a small Council…was to ensure that in our planning of the deployment of our scientific and technological resources we have the very best advice at our disposal." In fine condition, with a rusty paperclip impression to the top edge.
