Die Sache hat übrigens keinerlei Be- deutung, weil wir wohl kaum daran denken, einen solchen Lehrstuhl zu errichten. A. Einstein. TLS (IL-JeCZA, L12/147III). [37 756]. On personal letterhead. An ADft [36 1007] is also available. [1] Leo Kohn’s letter was actually dated 2 March 1928 (see Abs. 448). Einstein had fallen ill in Zuoz, Switzerland in mid-March (see Doc. 161). [2] Regarding Chaim Weizmann’s preference for Selig Brodetsky over Edmund Landau for the position of academic head of the Hebrew University and the hiring of Edmund Landau as a professor of mathematics, see Abs. 448. [3] Brodetsky was forty years old Landau was fifty-one. [4] Kohn had asked Einstein for his opinion on the circumstances under which Landau should be hired in Abs. 448. [5] Einstein had previously expressed his preference for the establishment of theoretical institutes rather than experimental ones (see Einstein to Leo Kohn, 28 May 1927 [Vol. 15, Doc. 527]). [6] Solomon Ginzberg (1889–1968) was registrar of the Hebrew University in Jerusalem. The geog- rapher in question was Otto Lehmann (1884–1941), Extraordinary Professor of Geography at the University of Vienna (see Abs. 467). [7] Elsa Einstein. 173. To Emil Rupp Berlin W., 16. April 1928 Lieber Herr Kollege, Besten Dank für die sehr interessanten Resultate, deren Interpretation mir in er- ster Näherung richtig erscheinen.—[1] Mit freundlichem Gruss Ihr A. Einstein. TLSX. [124 357]. On personal letterhead. Addressed “Herrn Dr. E. Rupp, I. Physik. Institut an der Universität Göttingen.” [1] The results of his experiments on electron scattering were communicated in Doc. 153. They were published in Rupp 1928b. 174. To Wichard von Moellendorff [1] [Berlin,] 20. April 1928 Lieber Herr v. Moellendorf, Es wird ein Vertreter der deutschen geistigen Arbeiter in die Kommission des Genfer Internationalen Arbeitsamts für geistige Arbeit gesucht.[2] Ich habe— nebbich[3]—mit den Spitzenorganisationen der geistigen Arbeiter wegen dieser Er- nennung zu verhandeln.[4]
