This sub-series of correspondence (212 letters) centers around issues on the use and legality of psychedelic drugs in the 1960s, as well as correspondence and materials dealing with mental health topics, in particular schizophrenia. Bates' interest in the psychedelic movement of the 1960s led to his participation in the M.I.T.-based Neurobiological and Psychedelic Study Group (1965-1969). Notable among the correspondents are: Kahlil Samra (American Schizophrenia Association), Lisa Biebermann, Abram Hoffer, Peter H. John (Psychedelic Review), Timothy Leary (3 L.), Ralph Metzner, Max Rinkel. Also included in this sub-series are numerous clippings, offprints and brochures relating to individual correspondents.

The Writings by Others files date primarily from 1960 to 1971. The files are arranged alphabetically by author's, name and then by title. The files contain correspondence, drafts of manuscripts, reprints, pamphlets, and radio broadcasts. An attempt was made to include in this-part unpublished manuscripts or material that would not be readily available from other sources. The manuscripts include documents, which Rabinowitch may have collected because of his specific interest in science or international affairs. Or the manuscripts may have been sent to Rabinowitch by the authors for his review and comment. The writings cover a wide range of topics including nuclear energy, disarmament, population control, chemistry, international politics, and scientific education. Of special interest are the scripts of radio broadcasts entitled "The Fifth Horseman". Broadcast in 1946, this Series was designed to educate the American public about the atomic bomb and the results of its use.

The sub-series contains single lectures dealing with the political, social, and legal systems of France, Germany, and the United States. There is also a large number of lectures on international affairs.

Included in this section are correspondences (ca. 580 letters) relating to Bates' employment efforts, correspondences with members of the German Consulate, as well as routine correspondence concerning household matters, vacation plans, medical matters and retirement.

The material (frequently undated) pertains to the following university courses: International Law, International Organization, International Law and Organization, Comparative Politics: Europe, Introduction to Political Science, Comparative Politics, Verfassungslehre und Verfassungspraxis in den USA und der französischen fünften Republik (Constitutional Theory and Practice in the USA and the French Fifth Republic), Le Système Politique Français, and Politics in France. The lectures are accompanied by numerous handwritten and typed additions as well as newspaper clippings.
