Correspondence from Philip G. Strong to Dr. Lloyd V. Berkner regarding Dr. Davidson

This document is a letter dated May 8, 1958, written by Philip G. Strong to Dr. Lloyd V. Berkner, President of Associated Universities, Inc. The letter serves as an interim acknowledgement of a previous communication from Dr. Berkner dated April 21, which included enclosures regarding Dr. Davidson. Mr. Strong explains that he had been away on a month-long trip abroad and had only recently returned. He notes that he had previously received similar letters concerning Dr. Davidson from both Dr. Davidson himself and Major Kehoe. This correspondence had been referred to the Air Force for appropriate action. Mr. Strong indicates that he has been in contact with the relevant officers to determine the current status of the matter and to seek guidance, but he will not be able to meet with them until the following week. He promises to write again once he has more information. Finally, Mr. Strong explicitly states that a claim made by Dr. Davidson—specifically a statement attributed to Huppelt regarding 'orders' to the Panel—is entirely without foundation.
