Dear Professor,
What a pity we had to do without you at Ernst's wedding! I want at least to tell you that the young couple made so pleasant an impression on that day that one felt justified in giving a favourable prognosis for this marriage. Once more, all best wishes!
Unfortunately we saw your wife and daughter only briefly. The latter will bring you my collection.1 Many thanks for thinking of me. I shall send a preface on later. I have not found time to write it down today. Some days ago I wrote to Rank that I should like to add a few non-medical papers too, but I have since decided to omit them as they would be out of tune with the rest.
My matter with the Ministry is still pending. I hope to hear tomorrow at what stage it is. I have reason to assume that the opinion of the Faculty, that is to say of Bonhoeffer, will not be completely negative. As soon as I hear more, I shall let you know.
What about the programme for The Hague? Do you intend to speak there about mass psychology? I am considering the female castration complex as a possible subject.2
With cordial greetings,
Yours,
Karl Abraham
