Correspondence regarding Mr. Davidson and the Robertson Panel
AI-Generated Summary
This document outlines a strategy for managing persistent inquiries from an individual named Mr. Davidson by coordinating a unified response among panel members and referring future communications to the Air Force.
This memorandum, dated May 29, 1958, from Philip G. Strong of the OSI, is addressed to Dr. Lloyd V. Berkner, President of Associated Universities, Incorporated. The document serves as a follow-up to previous correspondence regarding an individual identified as Mr. Davidson. Strong informs Berkner that he is contacting the other three panel members—Alvarez, Coudsmit, and Page—to ensure a unified front in response to Davidson's persistent inquiries. Strong expresses concern that Davidson is consuming excessive time and effort. Consequently, the established procedure for future correspondence with Davidson will be to acknowledge receipt of his queries and inform him that they have been forwarded to the Air Force for appropriate action. The document includes two enclosures: a letter to Davidson and a letter to Robertson.
I am also writing the other three panel members, Alvarez, Coudsmit, and Page. This is being done in anticipation of their being bombarded by Davidson as you and Bob have been.
