Although no lack of serious interest in the lectures is the cause of their abandonment. At one of his recent loctures the au- dience was composed mostly of foreign- ers, including three American students and several English speaking women, who dropped in during an h“elm be- tween a shopping tour and a visit to a theater. They displayed far more in- terest in the personality of the famous professor than in the learned exposition of his theories. Prof. Einstein did not like being a target for the opera glasses of curious casual visitors. Malicious persons say, too, that the attendance at the lectures was considerably larger on rainy days than when fine weather pre- valled and the tourists had other op- portunities for ll‘hmeln{. It is reported that Prof. Elnstein re- cently received a threatening letter from German reactionaries warning him not to continue his course at the university | on pain of suffering the fate of Dr. Rathenau.

Mr. Cook expects to obtain an interview with President Harding in a few days to discuss various resolutions adopted by the organization at its convention in San Francisco.
