Institute members advanced their books as currency for exit from the Institute.

Evidence

Lowenthal regularly reported to Horkheimer disrespectful remarks made about him by Neumann and Marcuse, who were friends, and Lowenthal’s attitude to Marcuse could hardly be kept hidden for very long. Lowenthal hoped that Marcuse’s book on Hegel and the origin of social theory, Reason and Revolution, which was published in the spring of 1941, 4 would assist both the Institute and Marcusein other words, that it would help Marcuse to separate himself from the Institute. — Rolf Wiggershaus, The Frankfurt School, 285
