could visit South America, the office would consider it as
the most statisfying solution. [43 133].
Aug 8 ALS from Davis Erdtracht. Renaissance requests permis-
sion to publish Einstein 1917a and 1920j in Polish. Note in
IE’s hand beneath signature: “15 % des Verkaufspreises.”
[41 1013].
before Aug 10 En route to Kiel, visits with Moritz Schlick in Rostock.
Aug 10 Stays in Kiel.
“On Reporters” is completed (Vol. 7, Doc. 61).
TLS from Werner Bloch. Requests recommendation for
delivering lectures on relativity. Also offers private teaching,
translation from English and French, shorthand, typing, etc.
[43 285].
Aug 11 TLS from Clemens Schaefer. In AE’s letter of 16 Jul the use
of the 10,000 M awarded by the KWIP is restricted to a Pan-
zer galvanometer. In the 5 Apr letter of Friedrich Schmidt-
Ott, no restrictions were mentioned. Asks permission to buy
a Paschen galvanometer for less than 10,000 M and to use
the rest for supplementary items. Note in AE’s hand beneath
signature: “bewilligt. Einstein durch Karte vom 22.VIII.”
[77 602].
Aug 12 TLS from Muller. On behalf of Algernon Methuen, reminds
that the publishing house had already approached AE for a
list of his books that Methuen would like to publish in
England. Assume that AE did not answer because of vaca-
tion. [67 972].
Aug 13 ALS from Waldemar (Vladimir) Alexandrow. Reminds AE
that he attended his lectures at the University of Zurich.
Solicits help in obtaining an academic position, which for
him, as an alien, is difficult. Gives a list of publications in
relativity and mathematics, and attaches a recommendation
by Hermann Weyl. [43 031], [43 031.1].
Aug 17 ALS from Curt Bamberger. Proposes to construct a mem-
brane that is penetrable for molecules only in one direction,
i.e., works as a valve. Molecules in Brownian motion would
accumulate on one of its sides, exerting a pressure that
could be used for work; a perpetuum mobile of the second
