The Committee on Immigration and Naturalization of the House of Representatives is studying the distribution of inventiveness among American citizens on the basis of their Old World racial descent. It would be greatly appreciated if you would be good enough to fill out the attached card and would return it as indicated. No publicity will be given any individual return, but only analyses and statistical summaries will be published. If the person addressed is dead, or is unable to supply the facts asked for on the card, it would constitute a valuable service if some one of near kin or acquaintances would supply the necessary data. We trust that you will collaborate in this research.
Very sincerely,
[signed]Albert Johnson
Chairman.
