Postwar Jewish Unity - Description:
- Translated Summary: "Have received the information about you from Y. Farber and the statement from your doctor in connection with the matter I am to take up with the B'nai B'rith organization..." Sandler still needs the application from the B'nai B'rith hospital, though, and asks Rubin to send it immediately. A member of B'nai B'rith's national office will be in New York next week and Sandler plans to take it up with him then. From a large bundle of letters concerning Rubin's care, originally filed together that include a direct request to Henry Monsky (B'nai B'rith, American Jewish Conference) to help JPFO member Alexander Rubin obtain admission to B'nai B'rith's Leo N. Levi Memorial Hospital.
- 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.
