On May 6, 1926, Professor Freud celebrated his seventieth birthday. It was most gratifying to see him full of vigour and health. The extra-ordinarily numerous messages of greeting and tributes of respect which poured in from all sides testified most eloquently to the wide response with which his work has now met.
Early on the morning of May 6 my colleagues, Federn, Ferenczi, Jones, Sachs, Storfer, and I conveyed to our beloved and revered master the good wishes of the International Psycho-Analytical Association. We also made a presentation of the sum collected by the Association for the Jubilee, amounting to over 30, 000 gold marks.1
Professor Freud replied to us in profoundly moving and unforgettable terms, and asked us to convey his thanks and greetings to all our fellow members.
