The correct answer is B, as the Einstein-Szilard letter warned President Roosevelt that Germany was researching nuclear weapons.

The Einstein-Szilárd letter was a missive written by Leó Szilárd and signed by Albert Einstein, sent to the President of the United States Franklin D. Roosevelt on August 2, 1939. Written by Szilárd after consulting with his compatriots and friends, the Hungarian physicists Edward Teller and Eugene Wigner, the letter warned of the danger that Germany could develop atomic bombs, and suggested that the United States should start its own nuclear program. It incited Roosevelt to take immediate action, which ultimately resulted in the beginning of the Manhattan Project and the development of the first atomic bombs.
