I'm skeptical that Einstein ever said this.  I have just searched the
Einstein archive at

http://www.alberteinstein.info/

for the word "dowsing" and did not find a single hit.  

Maybe he said it, but without a real citation with date and page number,
or a facsimile of the letter - I'm very dubious.
