Political - Description:
- Translated Summary: Says that the Organization Department of the World Jewish Congress wants "leading people" of the American Jewish Congress to be better informed as to its work, enclosing four reports and asking for remarks, criticisms and suggestions. That request for feedback is marked in pen. The letter implies that the enclosed reports are for leaders who are not on the Executive Committee.
- Notes:
- The Jewish People’s Fraternal Order was the largest ‘national’ section of the International Workers Order (IWO) which focused on cultural awareness and celebration, mutual support especially in health insurance coverage, and anti-fascist activities. The IWO also gave particular emphasis to supporting the rights and interests of African Americans.
