Dear Dr. Wetmore: 
Referring to your letter of March 28, I note what you say in 
regard to the International Ornithological Congress. I think 
you are right. First let's find out if they are going to meet 
in the United States in 1942, and then have the proper author¬ 
ities settle where the meeting should be held. 
I sent you copies of correspondence with M. Delacour so that 
you know the Academy has extended an invitation.
