“Measurements
on
the
basis of zonal
time,”
I
cannot
imagine
how
such
measurements
ought
to be
carried
out.
The
statement,
p.
116
below,
is
without
grounds
and
incorrect.[57]
The
rest of
this
chapter
cannot be refuted in
detail,
because it
is
built
upon
earlier
errors.-
Dear
A[dler],
Now I
have been
sitting
over
your
work for
two
and
a
half
days
and
have
studied
a
good
half
of
it
thoroughly.[58]
I
know
your
chain of
reasoning
and
believe
I
can
forgo
studying
the remainder for
now,
since it
is
probably
based
upon
the
foregoing
deductions,
which
I
do not view
as
correct.
Now I
expect
from
you
some
instructions
on
what
I
should do
with
your
manuscript,
or
whether
I
should
keep
it. In
any event,
I
would
prefer
if
I
were
not invited
by
a
third
party
to comment
on
it
publicly.
If
you publish
these
reflections,
I
am
unlikely
to write
a
reply
to
it,
because I have remained silent
about
a
number
of
analogous
publications
already.-
Now
I
wish
you
continued
fruitful
researches in
your asylum.
Whenever
a
book falls
into
my
hands that
I
think
could
give
you pleasure,
I
shall send it
to
you.
Prof. Goldscheid in Vienna
published
one
recently,
Individualmoral und
Staatsmoral
(or some
similar
title),[59]
which could
perhaps
be made accessible to
you.
With
cordial
regards, yours,
Einstein

To Walter
Dällenbach
[Ahrenshoop,]
8 August
[1918]
Dear
Dällenbach,
I congratulate
you on
your
doctorate.
Judging
from
my
own
experience,
it
facilitates
dealings
with
people
to
a
quite
considerable
degree.
For
the
publication
of
your
dissertation
I
recommend
the
Vierteljahrsschrift
of
the
Zurich Scientif.
Society.
Publication
in
a
German
journal
falls out of consideration
because of
the
great
paper
shortage.-[1]
There
is
no sign
of influenza here at
the
Baltic Sea.
But
I
am
going
home
again
to Berlin in
a
few
days.[2]
Wishing you happy
holidays, yours,
Einstein
Cordial
regards
to
the
Bessos.
