    Dear Dr. Latarjet, I enoiose a preprint of a paper on our genetics work. You may recollect that I reported our basic idea in the discussion at the Gol de Voza conference, though not the bit about the coding ratio being 3. At the end of the conference I handed in a short written account. Could you tell me when and where it is likely to be published? It is the only simple means I have of establishing that we had the idea before Nireriberg' s astonishing discovery that poly U codes for polyphenylalanine. May I take this opportunity of saying how much I enjoyed that conference, both scientifically, socially and scenically. My wife also was very glad she came to it. With best wishes, Yours sincerely, F.H.C. Crick. Dr. R. Latar^et, Laboratoire Pasteur de l'Institut du Radium, Service de Radiobiologie et de Cancerologie de L'Institut Pasteur, Rue d'ülm. 26, PARIS (Ve), FRANCS .
