00386 I am deeply distressed over Miss Ackerman's condition which is indeed most grave. The last report I was able to get on Friday wes that her chance for recovery was very slight as her condition seemed daily to grow worse. The diagnosis is not yet positive but it would appear that she is suffering from a virulent milisry tuberculosis. She is getting the best attention and treatment possible in any place in the world but that does not lessen the tragedy of her situation, poor girl. This letter is but an interim report and I hope to be able to write to you in the course of a couple of weeks and tell you what the Foundation is prepared to do with regard to our plan. The meeting at which the decision was made was held at the end of May so the letters on the subject cannot now be long delayed. I had the pleasure of meeting Pere Teilhard du Chardin at luncheon at Dr. Grabau's last week in company with Drs. Matthew, Nelson, Granger, Tong ané Barbour. The discussion at lunch was most interesting and will, I hope, result in a determined effort to place the Pontian in the Pliocene where it would appear to belong from the standpoint of vertebrate Palaeontology. I expect Xrs. Black and the children will get off to Peitaiho next Saturday but I shall spend most of the summer here in my laboratory on the Kansu material and comparative series. We join in sending our most cordial regards to "you and Mrs. Andersson end look forward to seeing you here next autumn. Thank you ever so much for your good wishes and congratulations on the safe arrival of our little deughter. With best wishes, I remain as ever, Very sincerely yours, t Bader LA z —> Davidson Black.

0085 DEPARTMENT OF ANATOMY PEKING UNION MEDICAL COLLEGE PEKING, CHINA. June 20, 1926. Pr. J. Ge Andersson, Statens Historiska Museum, Stockholm, Sweden. Dear Pr. Andersson:- It is just a month since I received your good letter of April 6th with all its interesting news. I have delayed answering in order to have some definite information to give you on the subject of the Foundation's attitude towerds our central Asiatic project and with regard to my own works. The former however is still uncertain and though I have every reason to believe that cooperation of some kind will be fortheoming I can not yet say how much nor in what manner this will be arranged. As to my own work I find myself in circumstances very similar to yours namely that I do not see how I can possibly finish my report and be ready for the field this year so that our original plan for a start in December 1927 or January 1928 seems to be the only one open to us under these circumstances. | I find thet the amount of work involved in the proper enalysis and comparison of the wonderful material you collected will require a much longer time than I had first anticipated. In addition I will have to do a considerable amount of outside work this summer in preparation for the September medical meetings here and for the next teaching year - and it is also possible that I may have to attend the Pan-Pacific conference in Tokyo in October. I åm very keen to make a start at the earliest opportunity but I feel as you do that a considerable responsibility rests SS upon me to present a careful and considered report on the Kansu material before we start. I am tremenéously interested in what you tell me of the progress of your work and of the support you have obtained from your Swedish colleagues. NS The prospect of the visit of the Crown Prince to Peking is splendid and it will be a great honor to us to have him visit our institution. To me however the news of your own presence here in October is even more welcome and I have many things I want to talk over with you. Dr. Matthew says Mr. Andrews is hoping to be able to invite the Crown Prince to take a rapid trip out to the dinosaur beds in the expedition cars if only the war sitvation will permit. There is little prospect of the expedition being able to go into the field till the late gummer and probably not even then. It is very hard on them all but wonderful for us to have the men in town for the summer - this opportunity for discussions on the problems of primate dispersel with Dr. Matthew has been a particularly fortunate one for me and I am glad to say he is in quite enthusiastic sgreement with our main conclusions.
