Dear Norman, I’m at 241 CPW and, for the moment, free. Though I don’t have your article with me, I do have a small notebook in which I had entered a few cryptic notes when I read it shortly after my arrival. I hope that my erratic memory will not fail me as I try to reconstruct my initial reactions. And I write now rather fast than wait till I return home because דבר בעתו מה טוב. I always enjoy reading your literary masterpieces and I enjoyed this one too. The language, the style, and the clarity of thought are most appealing. Also, in re: your plea for moderation in Jewish life (Hungarian standards) and the avoidance of extremism, your “nis-thesis” is an ingenious idea for the golden mean.

לכבוד ידידי הדגול מאד, ראש ישבתנו ונשיאה הרה"ג ר' נחום שליט"א. רצו"ב הקטע מספרו של הרב מקובנה בעל הדבר אברהם והרב שכטר נ"י הביא ושאודותיו שחחנו אמש בפגישתנו. בהערכה רבה, זבולון חרלפ
