and -2- data or discussing any of the problems, as we see them, with him. I regret that I gave Dr. Flinn a copy of the paper which was prepared for publication last June, and hardly know what the best thing is to do in view of his attitude. He seens to feel that this paper should not be published and might have a tendency to be rather critical and unfair in an expression of his opinions regarding same should the proceed with publication. In my letter of last week I suggested that you and Dr. Fialla consider the publication of this paper jointly, but upon further consideration of the matter, and in view of the fact that Dr. Flinn has been consulted as a co-author, I question whether this would be a wise procedure. At the moment it occurs to ne that in the event you feel that the notes reported by you, both on yourself and on the girls at the hotel Marseilles are worthy of publication, you proceed with such publication under your name along. In fact this seems to be the most clear eut manner in which this could be undertaken. There should be no reference made to the data obtained in cooperation with Dr. Flinn's work. Dr. Flinn's position in this work is rather a favorable one, for he has had an opportunity to study cases, and should be and probably is the best authority on the subject. His knowledge in this field, however, I attrigute not to his own scientific endeavors, but to the collection of opinions of any men, either in the scientific or medical field who saw fit to discuss the subject with him and present their ideas. In other words he has become a clearing house on this subject. With kind regards, I am Sincerely yours, Vice President. HHBarker+R
