DIA5/ :With regard to the case of Johann Friedrich Glum, the following is learned from the Depart- ment of State. On 23 June, a request was sent to Bonn for additional information about the purposes of Professor Glum's intended trip; a grant has not been made officially as yet, but seems likely; his case is before the Conference Board which screens such revests; a recommendation will be made in due course by this Board to the Board of Foreign Scholarships which makes the final decision. The length of time that this will take is uncertain but presumably will be decided during the summer as Professor Glum's trip, if made, would occur during the fall.

Repeated inquiries at the State Department have finally elicited the answer that Dr. Glum's application has now been received. He is likely to get favorable consideration on both a Fulbrighttravelling fellowship and a Smith- Mundt maintenance fellowship. Final decisions are likely to be made in a few weeks and Dr. Glum will be notified by the State Department.

(I stayed in their house at Long Island.) In this time I was ministerial dirigent in the Office of the Baverian Minister President (Mr. Hoegner ? engaged me in 1946. 1945 I .was a German consultant in the office of General Clay in Berlin. I have been a long time director general of the Kaiser Wilhelm Society for scientific research in Berlin til 1937 the Nazis fired me out.) Now I am lecturing at the University of Munich about the Western democracies and European constitu- tional history and made now a trip to Great Britain and France to study the development of the political and social life in both countries after the war. In 1949 you and your wife expressed the wish I would come back to the States for a longer time. This could be easily fulfilled, because I have applicated for a Fulbright grant to stay quite a year in the United States wishing to write about the political life there something like the book of Alexis de Tocqueville Democracie en Amerique. I got the answer from Bad Goderberg that the US Educational Commission will recommend the application to the State Department in Washington. But I know there were some restraint because I have been in the States before on invitation of Military Government in 1949. But I was there only about 3 months and unfortunately from 15 of May to the end of July (not a very good time for studying the life in USA. I think, and not enough to write with sound authority about the States. And I wish so much to destroy all the nonsense the people in Germany are believing about the States and the Americans. So if you could have a look into the division of the State Department which will handle the case, I should be very thankful. I should like to stay in different universities to see as much of the country as possible and to be some time in Washington. I could give when necessary some lectures about Approved Forilkase 2002/02/05 : CIA-RDP80R017311110)0500290004-6 ?

If the appli- cation would be approved by the State Department I should like to come over in October this year. With very best regards to you and to your wife I am sincerely yours /s/ Friedrich Glum My wife is the sister of Barbara Kempner. I enclose my Munich address. I shall stay at Paris til the 20th of May.
