Dear Doctor Bernfeld:
In response to your letter of Aoril 3rd, concerning the
application for a contract to test a precondensed s.oke concentra_e
and an instant s-mo}:e condensate, I car. now state that it will be
impossible to fund this contract at this time. The unusually lasye
nwnber of grants and co^-ra--ts that have becose available for
cors ideration by the Scier.ti'ic Advisory 3oard has :.a'_e it necesaanr
to establish priorities. The very extensive worK that has been
supported by other agencies using the skin apolicaticn rethods `as
r,.oved the percutaneous applicrtior. of tars and fractior.s to a lcver
priority.
Iwss impressed by your detaile3 report of the caper'_ner.t
that was eecn, leted 1rst 'all and do hoee to receive soon a copy =_
the «enusc=iot that will be submitted for Fu:hlicatic n. It aiq` _ be
advsatagecis i° it a^+ea_e:'l befcre the large studies dor,e b? the :. ._.
were reYorte3. I have iPar3 that they are noc+ bein" s~~^arized. -
agree with Lie sta`e-ent ,.iz` you cuoted Cro:r. the N.nu_1 Rc?o=: :: The
