woman met the writer at the door
and begged her to desist at least
from attempts to. discuss "relatiy-

my husband"--it was Mrs.
Einstein who spoke---"is 80 over

"As for the outbreaks OF anti /
Jewish sentiment, OF which we
learn here and there at times, my I

by the passions let loose by war,
the hatred of nation against ma

Mrs. Einstein smiled and re-
