HOMEWARD BOUND.
EINSTEIN’S INTERESTING VISIT TO AMERICA. United Press Association- -By Electrlf * c.egrapn—Copyright (Received March 5, 7.0 pjn.) NEW YORK, March 4. Professor Einstein sailed home aboard the steamer Deutschland tonight, taking with him hundreds of gifts, including five violins and a bit of petrified wood from Arizona, and a telegram of farewell from President Hoover, in which the President expressed the hope that the visit had “been as satisfying to you as gratifying to the American people.” The scientist had a variegated day, in which he made addresses or conversed with noted callers on every conceivable subject, from pacifism to the creation of life; his theory of relativity to the methods of combatting poverty; the economic depression and Zionism.
Reporters and curious persons, as usual, made it necessary for him to change his plans several times, in order to avoid being overwhelmed.
