EINSTEIN, Albert. Autograph letter signed ('Papa') to his son Hans Albert, n.p., n.d. ('Friday afternoon'), one page, 4° (punch holes).
EINSTEIN AND THE AMERICAN WAR EFFORT. Einstein feels confident that his son's citizenship will soon be approved, as he, Margot Einstein and Helen Dukas have been called upon to give testimony. 'I am curious whether I feel be able to achieve anything for the Navy before the war is over -- I am rather cut off here in my hermitage. As far as I can see, a lot of good work is being done. What do your superiors in Washington think of your contributions to the war effort? [...] I myself have received no official confirmation of my functions'. He will lend what help he can with Hans Albert's search, although 'paternal initiative does not generally have an effect on strangers'.
