Greeting and Blessing:
I am writing to you in behalf of the application made by Yeshivas Amshinov "Shem Olam", of Bayit V’Gan, Jerusalem, for the immediate inclusion among the Yeshivoth which receive annual subventions from the JDC.
For many years I have known the leaders of this worthy segment of the orthodox Jewish community, and am convinced that the Yeshiva in question merits the fullest support of the JDC. If there are certain technicalities to be overcome, I am confident that with your good will and influence a way will be found to overcome them. I am informed that a delegation of the leaders of the Yeshiva in question are ready and willing to meet with you or with anyone else of the JDC, to present any further data that may be required. I understand the application is due for consideration within the next few days, and I sincerely hope that you will give it your prompt and benevolent attention.
Assuring you of my sincere appreciation, and with all good wishes and
With blessing,
M. Schneerson
