Dear Dr Pfister,
The rumour of what has been going on with you had already reached me by a private route. Thank you very much for your detailed information. It will be Eitingon's task to deal with the matter, officially I have nothing to do with it. However, I shall gladly tell you what my personal attitude is.
I am opposed to all lame compromises, would never take any trouble to keep anyone who wanted to leave, and would never accept such a suspect formula as formal association. Whether two Swiss societies1 are possible within the framework of our organisation is a matter for the committee to decide. My vote goes in favour of the society in which Pfister, Sarasin2 and Zulliger are active.
Your reply in Imago is awaited with interest. Men's real allegiance is shown in difficult times.
With cordial greetings,
Yours,
Freud
