March 11th 1947
Professor Albert Einstein,
c/o Emergency Committee of Atomic Scientists,
90 Nassau Street, Princeton, N.J.
Dear Professor Einstein;
My sincere thanks for your important letter of Feb. 10th.
As a member of "United World Federalists" I fully understand the great importance of the educational task your committee has undertaken.
April last I attended a one-day World Government Institut at the campus of the University of Chicago and always will be grateful for the few hours I could listen to Dr. Urey, Dr. Szilard, Dr. Allison and their colleagues. Since than, for me -yesterday was thousand years ago-:
A few weeks ago I had the great pleasure to meet Dr. Frankl of the Princeton Institut at the World Government Congress in Asheville, N.C. in which I took part as an accredited delegate of the World Federalists of Ohio. I came away from this convention with still higher spirits and new hope that the establishment of a world community based on law ("In the name of sanity" as Mr. Raymond Swing puts it) is still a possibility, even though time is running out fast.
My contribution I mail with a separate letter to the Emergency Committee of Atomic Scientists. In conclusion please permit me to send you "die herzlichsten Glueckwuensche zum Geburtstag" and remain,
very sincerely yours,
Ernst O. Stech
