Content<\/strong><\/td>Hess thanks Meyer for offering his help with his potential new position in China. Hess has the opportunity to get a position in China, and Professor Dieuaide also offers him a position in New York. Hess writes he still needs time to make a decision. He states that he does not like to work together with medics, which he would have to do if he went to New York. He lastly writes that he is working on a new method for measuring capacitances of his radiation measurement apparatus.<\/td><\/tr>
