\brief{Rudolf Carnap an Charles Morris, 31. Mai 1934}{Mai 1934}

%May, 31, 1934.

\anrede{Dear Professor Morris,}

\haupttext{I received your letter and your paper \uline{``Pragmatism and Metaphysics''}\IW{\morrisms}. I have read the paper with great interest. I think
it will be a good basis for our intended discussions. If your Metaphysics is based upon experiences and can be checked by
experiences it does of course not belong to that kind of Metaphysics which we reject as nonsensical. We would perhaps
prefer to call it a part of science, namely that part which contains the most general or the most fundamental statements
of science, instead of Metaphysics. But this question is a mere terminological one and therefore of secondary importance.
-- When I write my Answer to Lewis\IN{\lewis} I shall also refer to your paper.

The printing of the indexes of my ``Syntax''\IC{\logischesyntax} have been somewhat delayed. Thus the book will only appear in 2 or 3 weeks.

About the Vienna friends I will write you a little later on. Also about our summer plans. Can you say approximately, to
about which altitude your wife\IN{\morrisfrau} is able to go?

Very sincerely}

\grussformel{yours\\
