Einstein’s explanation suffices, i.e., that he did some investigation, received a negative
answer, and was not prepared to pursue the matter further, despite Reich’s entreaties for a
“control of the control.” However, from Greenfield’s research, cited in Chapter 20, we know
that the FBI considered Reich an “enemy alien” right around the time Reich approached
Einstein. Einstein was engaged in planning for the development of the atomic bomb. It is
quite possible, but by no means verifiable at this time, that the FBI warned Einstein against
further contact with Reich. I am indebted to Arthur Efron for making this speculative con-
nection (personal conversation).
