Astronomer Vesto Slipher, of the Lowell Observatory, writes to EPH asking permission to print images from Mt. Wilson of spiral nebulae. He plans to publish a paper regarding their orientation and hopes to illustrate with photographs taken at Mt. Wilson. He is now only asking permission generally, as he does not yet know which images he will want to use.
