[Letter from Daniel W. Kempner to Mrs. Fanny Hamburger, January 10, 1951]
Letter from Daniel W. Kempner to Mrs. Fanny Hamburger discussing her most recent letter which she states that she may move back to New York from France to retain her United States citizenship and avoid the threat of war. He validates her concern but reassures her that her citizenship is less important than she thinks, and that war will erupt everywhere if it is to happen, so fleeing it is not worth her time. He explains that it would be nearly impossible to find someone to take care of her in New York due to her failing eyesight. He promises to help financially if it is needed for her to stay in France.
