Notes and topics
BR asks Einstein to help Dr. Michael Golomb, a young mathematician who was forced to flee his native Yugoslavia due to anti-Semitism. BR has formed a high opinion of him "through correspondence and from his work". See , Bitter Prerequisites: A Faculty for Survival from Nazi Terror by William Laird Kleine-Ahlbrandt (Purdue U. P., 2001), which mentions correspondence, including an apparently surviving letter of 1 April 1939 from Patricia Russell to Golomb.
