June 9, 1947 1607 West Wall Midland, Texas

Albert Einstein Princeton University Princeton New Jersey

Dear Mr. Einstein:

  It was with great interest that I read Philip Wylie's strip on this atomic era which he has so aptly dubbed  "The Horror". 
  He requested contributions be made to you by those who are interested in their future in this world and it is with some reluctance that I send in this mere contribution. 
  For my part I do not wish an acknowledgement but a sincere friend made a part of the contribution and I would very much appreciate that a post card acknowledgement be made to him as follows:
Mr. George R. McDonald      
Midland Hotel Midland, Texas. 
  May the facts of atomic energy be widely diffused by you and your associates in this venture and I sincerely hope that you will put me on your mailing list for material that you may elect to send out from time to time. 
       Yours very truly, 
           Henry G. Orson
           1607 West Wall 
           Midland, Texas
