P.S. My son has been educated at Vienna, Nice, and the Friends’ School, Great
Ayton, Yorks. He got his Matriculation Certificate in seven subjects, among them
five languages, with distinction. He is now private secretary to the director of the
Eastern Department of the Exchange Telegraph Agency.
I was educated at the Maximilian- Gymnasium of Vienna, and at Vienna University
(Medicine, Chemistry, Belles Lettres).
Der Brief ist eine Beilage zum Einbürgerungs-Ansuchen, das der prominente Anwalt
Borm-Reid beim Home Office am 20.3.1939 einreicht (DÖW 11518/3). Borm-Reid argumentiert:
„Mr. Neumann would be very grateful if this application could go through
with as little delay as possible as he is anxious to offer his services to the State on
a voluntary basis and feels that he could be useful, through his International relationships,
on propaganda.“ – RN wurde schließlich erst Anfang 1947 eingebürgert.
Borm-Reid hatte – durch seine Gattin – RN am 2.12.1936 (ÖNB) Unterlagen über den
angeblichen Sohn von Zaharoff angeboten und zukommen lassen.
