Deutsch has been in touch with Robert Haas about a civic honor being conferred
upon Hoboken in the hopes of keeping him, the Photogram Archive, and his personal library in

OJ 10/3, [156] Typewritten letter from Deutsch to Schenker, dated October 13, 1931
Deutsch reports that Hoboken is probably going to keep his personal library in
Vienna. He is not optimistic that “V” [Moriz Violin] will be accorded the title of
Professor, which can be conferred only by the Vienna Academy and not to people living [i.e.
working] outside it.

OJ 10/3, [159] Typewritten letter from Deutsch to Schenker, dated October 23, 1931
Deutsch enumerates three points arising from his meeting the previous day
(October 22, 1931) with Robert Haas and Wilhelm Weckbecker: that the minister (for
education) should be approached regarding the conferral of a civic honor upon Anthony
Hoboken by the Austrian state; that Hoboken’s character and reputation should in the
meantime be “cleaned up,” by appealing to the Vienna police authorities; that Hoboken should
invite – separately – Weckbecker and Ludwig Karpath to his home to examine his personal
library. He asks Schenker to get in touch with Karpath about this, but to do so tactfully
and with reference to these three points.
-
OJ 10/3, [160] Typewritten letter from Deutsch to Schenker, dated October 24, 1931
Deutsch is pleased that his “plotting” to obtain for Hoboken a civic honor
from the Austrian state is working so far. He has spoken on the telephone with Ludwig
Karpath and will see him next week. Hoboken’s character seems not to have been blotted by an
incident in Munich some time ago: whatever misdeed he may have for which he had been
accused, and which led to his (brief) incarceration, can never be proved.
