Please let me know whether the possibility of collaboration on these lines interests you. If it does we might discuss it in more detail before you leave. I shall then have to seek the Government's concurrence and endeavour to secure a grant for the purpose in 1947.

Handwritten: With best wishes for the success of your present campaign.

Handwritten: Yours sincerely
