Letter from Howard Walter Florey to R H L Cohen, Medical Research Council, Old Queen Street, London Impossible to find G G F Newton a position on the departmental staff - comments on this - thought that if Newton continued to do good work his Medical Research Council appointment would be renewed at five-yearly intervals - comments on this - great pity if Newton's partnership with E P Abraham were broken up - Newton's capacity to carry on research does not depend on his, Florey's, being in the department - comments on this - should like to put to Council proposal that Abraham should be made honorary director of a Unit for Medical Chemistry and that Newton be put on Abraham's staff - is enclosing Abraham's document about this - comments on the document. 19 May 1958
