| Description | 'We must consider if we shall keep the "Notgemeinschaft Deutscher Wissenschafter im Ausland" going for the next time. I am asked by many people to do so at least for the next months as a period of transition. Our American friends are of the same opinion. If you agree I would like to go on with the work. I hope that it will be possible to have the necessary very small funds available for the administration without contributions from private people. In case we should go on we must have the board enlarged by a few people living in London who could help us to find openings. I therefore have in mind the cooption of two persons, one medical man and one scientist. Their names are:
Professor Dr. Ph. Ellinger, former ord. professor of Pharmacology, Medical Academy, Dusseldorf, now Research Fellow Lister Institute of preventive Medicine, London and
Professor Dr. M. Pirani, formerly extraord. professor at the Technische Hochschule, Berlin, now chief researcher with the British Coal Utilisation.
Both mentioned persons have done very useful work for us; Ellinger compiled a survey on the medical faculties in Germany which has proved to be very useful for the people dealing with the matter in the Western zone of Germany.
Pirani was very helpful in assisting us to find positions for our proteges. Please let me know your opinion on the matter.
PS: Do you happen to know the address of Mrs. Cook, daughter of the late pharmacologist Professor Hans Sachs. I have been urgently asked to find out her address and I was informed that her husband is working as a physicist in Oxford. ' |
