The White House
Washington
October 19, 1939
My dear Professor:
I want to thank you for your recent letter and the most interesting and important enclosure.
I found this data of such import that I have convened a Board consisting of the head of the Bureau of Standards and a chosen representative of the Army and Navy to thoroughly investigate the possibilities of your suggestion regarding the element of uranium.
I am glad to say that Dr. Sachs will cooperate and work with this Committee and I feel that this is the most practical and effective method of dealing with the subject.
Please accept my sincere thanks.
Very sincerely yours,
Franklin D. Roosevelt
Dr. Albert Einstein,
Old Grove Road,
Nassau Point,
Peconic, Long Island,
New York.
