Dear Mr.Brunauer:
Enclosed I am sending you the signed copies of the contract and my Naturalization Paper.
I am glad to hear that work is done concerning the torpedo. I am very grateful that you have send me my distinguished colleague Dr. Goranson who showed me enough material to give me an adequate idea of the process. I wrote him a suggestion about a possible protection method for his competent judgement.
I have been asked by Dr. Vannevar Bush of the Office of Scientific Research and Development to accept an appointment as consultant to Division 8 of the National Research Committee. I do not know whether this activity is compatible with my Navy appointment and have written Dr. Bush accordingly. I should be grateful for information to me or Dr. Bush about this matter.
With best wishes, I am
yours very sincerely,
A. Einstein.
Professor Albert Einstein.
