R returns B's Darrow file with copy of R's letter to Darrow.
Typescript copy of letter from S.C. Roberts to Dr K.K. Darrow, 30 December 1943. Syndics of C.U.P. like to have book by D on physical sciences in America. They agree no undue emphasis should be placed on 'organisation'. Book of 75,000 - 80,000 words be suitable. Syndics propose royalty arrangement with an advance on account of royalties - precise terms fixed when MS completed and cost of production estimated. Looks forward to receiving MS.
