| and had not authorized you to show it to specialists before it is
| printed. I see no reason to address the--in any case erroneous--
| comments of your anonymous expert. On the basis of this incident
| I prefer to publish the paper elsewhere.
|
| Respectfully,
|
| P.S. Mr. Rosen, who has left for the Soviet Union, has authorized
| me to represent him in this matter."

| Apparently the formal process of peer reviewing wasn't a thing
| until then.
