                        Dear Professor ![1]

 

I have not had the time, and also not the financial means, to attend to the necessary measures regarding your kind proposal about an article for a French magazine. In this connection I kindly request you to obtain for me, if possible, some addresses of French scientists (biologists, astronomers, meteorologists) who are likely to understand German. I would then be able to send copies of my work to such people.

 

In addition to the many previous immensely touching statements in print regarding my research, lately I have received 2 more of the same category, one from Professor Dr Leo Bürgenstern in Vienna (article in “Zeitschrift für Schulgesundheitspflege”[2]), and the other one by Dutchman R.E.de Haan in 27 pages in the journal “Tijdspiegel”[3].

 

If these statements could be supplemented with similar ones in French, given by men whose words carry weight, it would greatly facilitate my efforts to establish stations for daily weighing in several more places - around the globe – for corroboration of the already given conclusion, that all organic functions all over the planet are in continuous and synchronic intensity- oscillations etc etc.

 

Warmest greetings from my wife and I, and our best wishes for a happy and prosperous New Year!

 

 

                                   Yours faithfully                                  

 

                                   R. Malling-Hansen
