\anrede{Dear Professor Carnap --}

\haupttext{As you can see, we are approaching Prague by degrees. I intend to remain here working in the library for a few weeks --
probably until June\,15. Then we go to Vienna until about the end of July. I will be in Prague by August 1st, and will
remain there until after the Congress\II{\kongressphilosophieprag}. It would please me very much to attend the \uline{logical positivism} meeting and to take
some part in it -- perhaps in presenting something of present-day pragmatism, perhaps in discussing the way your Viennese
group appears to our eyes. We may leave the details until later, but that I am glad to do something is sure.

`My' excellent German was in large part due to my German friend in Chicago who corrected and amplified my letters --
actually my German is nowhere near as good as your English. Nevertheless I get along fairly well and perhaps by the end
of August I can present my brief contribution in German if that seems advisable. \neueseite{}

I am very glad you are to give your lectures in London\IC{\londonervortraege} \& that your book\IC{\logischesyntaxenglisch} is to also appear in English. You are kind to
send me a copy, and I am asking the Chicago University Press\II{\chicagopress} to forward you a copy of my \uline{Six Theories of Mind}. If you
have not already sent your book to America, please send it instead to me in Berlin -- if it has already been sent it will
be forwarded to me here from Chicago.

We have been here only a week and I have not yet attempted to make many personal connections. I am sorry that Hempel\IN{\hempel} is
not here. Dubislav\IN{\dubislav} I will look up soon. My main interest at present is in the Staatsbibliotek\blockade{korrigieren?}\II{}. I look forward with
pleasure to meeting you and your group. Someday I hope you can pay us a visit (with lectures) in America, and especially
at Chicago University\II{\universitychicago}. You will find genuine interest in your work. When I left New York Dewey\IN{\dewey} was reading with great
care your Philosophy of Science\II{\philosophyofscience} article\IC{\problemederphilosophieaufsatz}. I trust you have seen Lewis'\IN{\lewis} article\IW{} dealing with your views in the recent
Philosophical Review\II{} -- I hope to discuss this with you.}
