Lieber Max-Albert,
Heute sprach ich einen sehr erfahrenen u. wohlmeinend sachkundigen Freund (Prof. N. Ste.) über Deine Frage. Die Unterredung mit ihm bestärkt mich, Dir dringend zur entschlossenen Wahl der Auswanderung zu raten u. von hellem Entschlüssen, die m. E. die Dir gestern geschilderten Risiken enthalten, abzuraten. Ich kann keinerlei Vorzüge Deines Zögerns erkennen! Die Verantwortung für die Entscheidung kann Dir allerdings Niemand abnehmen. Aber so wie die Verhältnisse liegen, würden Dich Tausende beneiden, dass Du den Schritt unter so guten Auspicien tun kannst. Also sei ein Mann!
Herzlichsten Gruss

Dear Max-Albert,
Today, I spoke with a very experienced, well-meaning, and knowledgeable friend (Prof. N. Ste.) about your question. My conversation with him encourages me to urgently advise you to decide in favor of emigration despite the risks involved, which I explained to you yesterday. I don’t see any merit in hesitating. However, nobody can make this choice but you. Under the current circumstances, however, thousands would envy your ability to emigrate under such good auspices. Be a man!
Warmest regards,
Father
