Dr. Irving Louis Horovitz Chairman Department of Sociology- Livingston College Rutgers University- New Brunswick, New Jersey O8903 Dear Irving: Many thanks for your recent note and the check. Please know that I am currently working on a revised brief version of my paper for Transaction and I will try to get it to you in about a month. I really believe it requires a good deal of work and therefore I feel that I should do the re­ vision rather than the Transaction editorial staff. Warmest personal regards.
