"Millionaires"

"If you were a millionaire for one day what would you do?"

Recently a Danish contest board has been considering several thousand answers to this question. The prizewinner was to be given an opportunity to spend one day in the manner he or she described.

Some of the suggestions were expensive. "If I were a millionaire for one day," wrote one patriotic contestant, "I should purchase Danish Government bonds worth 1,000,000 kroner and give them to my poor husband."

This answer did not win the prize. One Majken Borring, female medical student at the University of Copenhagen, won. "If I were a millionaire for one day," wrote she, "I would spend that day with Professor Albert Einstein."

Shipped by airplane from Copenhagen to Berlin, Miss Borring spent her day with Mathematician Einstein before he left for London. They talked about Relativity, Pacifism.
