Summary

Dankt für erneutes Schreiben in der Sache der Anti-Nazipropaganda [s. Br. an M. v. 16.6.1940]. Lehnt den Vorschlag ab, unter einem »nom de plume« zugunsten der Leute deutschsprachiger Herkunft zu schreiben und sie zu beeinflussen versuchen. »But events are moving so rapidly abroad that it is America which must be warned in time, and this can only be done by American citizens and not by foreigners no matter how well intentioned.«
