Notes and topics

Blake is now working in Frankfurt. He is very concerned for the state of Germany and that unless things get started immediately it will be too late. Things are especially bad in the Russian Zone.

Blake has seen the von Trotts and asks if the Russells know anyone in the British Zone whom Werner von Trott could contact about a job. He also alerts them that any German refugees who volunteered during the war and have since been discharged were not being aided at all and essentially told to return to Germany.
