- Monday May 30th Wrote a lot of letters for Laura. She had a dream about Hitler. They were playing a game in which one person suggested a subject, another did the drawing. It was Laura's turn to suggest a subject for Hitler. He said: 'Let me draw a great Flood!' Laura said: 'No, it is for me to choose the subject. Draw a moment of complete private happiness.' His face clouded and he exclaimed '...followed by universal disaster!' Then asked leave to lie on L's bed & think it out. Karl objected: 'I don't like him lying on your bed' Went to doctor again: who hopes it is not stone or gravel.
