Will you be coming through Rostock or its vicinity sometime? It still pains us
very much that we could not see you here last
time.[8]
At the very latest, I hope to
see you in February if you are in Berlin then; for around that time I am supposed
to give a talk
there.[9]
My wife, the
children,[10]
and I wish you and yours all the
best. In offering best compliments to your esteemed wife and sending you my most
cordial greetings, I am, in gratitude & admiration, yours truly,
M. Schlick

In indignation about the pan-German

character, we affirm to you, in truly international spirit, the sympathy of all liberal
persons, who are proud to know you rank among them and number among the lead-
ers of science worldwide.

118. From Helmut Bloch
Berlin, 30 August 1920
Esteemed Prof. Einstein,
In greatest respect for you, I take occasion as a Jew—and consider it a pleasure
to write you a few lines—as well as from the hum[an] point of view, to feel for you
most warmly about the great injustice done to
you![1]
Although I am a layman of
your science, I do gladly have great interest in becoming acquainted with a paper
treating your work; and it should be a pleasure and an honor to receive such from
you, either for reimbursement or I would demonstrate my most grateful apprecia-
tion by means of my above-mentioned articles (such as shaving instruments,
etc.).[2]
