Professor Albert Einstein, world famous scientist, will sail for the United States, November 30th, on the S. S. Belgenland and will proceed straight to California without stopping at New York. He will spend three months on scientific work and research at the Carnegie Institute of Technology at Pasadena where the Mount Wilson observatory, probably the greatest in the world, is located.
On this, his second visit to America, (he was here in 1921), Dr. Einstein will be accompanied by Mrs. Einstein, a woman secretary and Dr. Walter Mayer, noted mathematician at the University of Vienna, who was recently given a scholarship by the Josiah Macy Foundation to act as Dr. Einstein’s assistant.
