Prof. Einstein wehrt sich
Prof. Einstein ist in Colon (Panama) eingetroffen. Er erklärte bezüglich der Forderung der nationalen Frauenorganisation der Vereinigten Staaten, ihm die Einreiseerlaubnis zu verweigern: „Ich habe noch nie von Seiten des schönen Geschlechts eine so energetische Ablehnung gegen jede Annäherung gefunden. Sollte es doch einmal der Fall gewesen sein, dann sicher von so vielen auf einmal. Aber haben sie nicht Recht, diese wachsamen Bürgerinnen? Weshalb soll man auch einen Menschen einladen, der mit demselben Appetit u. Behagen hartgesottene Kapitalisten frißt, wie einst das Ungeheuer Minotaurus in Kreta ledere griechische Jungfrauen und der zudem so gemein ist, jeden Krieg abzulehnen, ausgenommen den unvermeidlichen mit der eigenen Gattin? Hört also auf eure Augen patriotischen Frauen und denkt daran, daß auch das Capitol des mächtigen Roms einst Geschnatter seiner getreue Gänse gerettet wurde. Albert Einstein.“
Prof. Einstein defends himself
Professor Einstein has arrived in Colon (Panama). Regarding the request of the United States National Women’s Organization that he be denied entry into the country, he stated: “I have never encountered such an lively rejection of any kind from women. Should it have ever been the case, then it surely involved many at once.” Yet aren’t they right, these vigilant female citizens? Why should someone also invite a man who eats hardened capitalists with the same appetite and pleasure as the monster Minotaur in Crete, who once devoured Greek virgins, and who is additionally so callous as to reject every war, except for the inevitable one with his own wife? Patriotic women, stay vigilant, and remember that the Capitol of mighty Rome was once saved by the chatter of its faithful geese. Albert Einstein
