Letter to Adam, Walter
Rutherford is delighted it is possible for [Mathilde Hertz] to receive an award. He feels that the AAC's attitude is of as much symbolic as practical importance due to the prestige 'Germany of the old days' gained from [Heinrich Hertz's] discoveries. Will write to Thomson about new soureces of funds for her.

With regard to the Nansen Office letter about the possibility of a Nobel Prize award of funds for the Academic Assistance Council, Rutherford agrees Michael Hansen's letter is not encouraging and that the International Institute of Intellectual Co-operation would have first place. Asks Adams to draft an acknowledgement; will see him on Friday at lunch [Friday February 21?].
