In effort to avoid suppression of his book, Elder Bruce R. McConkie drafts letters to IMPROVEMENT ERA and CHURCH NEWS stating that MORMON DOCTRINE "contains my personal views only, and I am solely responsible for all statements or opinions expressed in it." He submits these for review of First Presidency, who reply on Feb. 18 that "they do not conform to the ideas that we have that you cannot be disassociated from your official position in the publication of such a manuscript." Presidency concludes that "pending the final disposition of this problem no further edition of the book be printed."
