Show s : »/ 2.^ Catomirte Wixxibtx#ify PARKER SCHOOL 421 W E S T H7T-H STREET OF FOREIGN AND COMPARATIVE LAW OFFICE OF THE DIRECTOR NEW YORK 27, N.Y. June 17, 1958 Professor A. S. Atiya Department of Oriental Studies Princeton University Princeton, New Jersey Dear Professor Atiya: Enclosed please find a copy of a letter which I have just received from Professor Sultan of the University of Cairo. This letter would indicate to me that there is a good chance of achieving cooperation between Egyptian and American universities. Professor Sultan's letter also makes me feel that we may have found in him the person we were seeking, namely, one who would take the initiative in getting things under way in Cairo. I wonder, therefore, whether we should henceforth deal only with Professor Sultan, or whether I should still be on the lookout for others who would aid in promoting cooperative activity. Specifically, it may no longer be necessary for me to go to Cairo. And I wonder what I should say to your friend Mr. Muhammad in the ^U-ght of this development. Incidentally, I have received a very courteous letter from him, saying that he would be happy to see me in Washington almost any time next month. Could you, at your convenience, give me the answers to the questions I have raised above? I hate to trouble you in this matter, but you have been very kind to me in the past, and therefore have given me some reason to believe that you would not mind my trespassing on your time once again. Faithfully yours, Willis L. M. Reese wIMR:es enc. |
