Now Greenberg  importunes me with wires  that he wants to come here.   Matters of great urgency, etc.

 

I am answering:

 

In your telegrams and letters I find not explained the necessity of your coming here.

 

Kindly give me first the reasons by wire or letter. I cannot find presently any urgency before Rabbis return. Nothing is changed since you left Marseilles unless you have got news unknown to me.
