Meanwhile he wrote his Pamphlet Charles Singer correspond with several University members of different countries discussing the commemoration of the 550th anniversary of the foundation of the Heidelberg University, as well as the oppression of professors and the restriction of the academic freedom of speech in Germany in the years of 1935 and 1936. The celebrations were entirely an outside stunt for political reasons, as Singer argues, therefore he insisted for the absence of the academic elite of other countries. For political reasons the advertisment of the University of Heidelberg was desired in 1936 instead of later, even though the real 550th anniversary would be one year later in 1937. Leonard Montefiore sent his pamphlet, were he discussed the controversy of the Heidelberg University, to several academics.
