Mr. Scharfman (?) the Ph.D. candidate who came in to look
at your manuscript and the Princeton Papers is a real leach,
as you say, and he will be coming back now or in January.
He wants to know about citing the Princeton Papers. Our
file shows that in 1964 you wrote David McClellan, after
having given him earlierppermission to quote and cite
Princeton transcript, that you did not want him to quote
any more from it, as "from now on, I reserve all quotations
of myself to myself.' I do not see anything specific about citing.
In 1963 you wrote Logan that he could refer to the papers
as "personal papers, not, as he had requested "personal
manuscript material. "
He would also like to photostat certain pages, where you
lay out the reasons (nine, I believe) why the German
situation had changed with the Korean war. I am sure
before you give permission to do this you would want to
see just what it is, and I do not have the exact reference.
However, you may just want to say a flat "no" to this.
May I tell him:
He can refer to having seen personal papers of
Mr. Acheson, with no quotations from them.

He cannot photostat any Princeton material.
