This recalls the statement signed by Albert Einstein, Bertrand Russell, and seven other Nobel laureates in 1955 renouncing thermonuclear weapons and promoting the establishment of peaceful means of settling international disputes. The authors ask Nirenberg to join a new statement, part of a five day conference involving more than one hundred environmental and peace organizations in Washington, D.C. The statement, an elaboration of the Einstein-Russell "Manifesto" of 1955, is included with the letter.
