Dear Dr Hooper

I am very slow in replying to your letter of Oct. 6, but I have really been quite busy. I am sorry that I can't seem to explain my views on gravitational polarization lucidly, but the trouble is probably with me. I shall try to get something worked up to send you but I don't quite know where to start.

Our work here has been progressing slowly because of silly little mechanical troubles. We have built 5 commutators to swich the currents to produce a rotating field and there has been a serious difficulty with each. We are now working on a rolling mercury design which looks promising.

We did try to use the rotating field from the ceramic magnets to drag around a field produced by a coil and current, but there seems to be a problem with the compatibility of the antecedents of the fields, because the limits within which it will spin are apparently narrow and we have not yet been able to determine their magnitude or the rules governing this action.

Because of the commutator difficulties we have not yet been able to try the big rotating field, but we have it all built and if and when we get this last bug licked we should be able to look for a few answers...

Sincerely,

Wilbert B. Smith
