EMBASSY OF ISRAEL
WASHINGTON D.C.
No. 10036
November 2, 1949
My dear Mr. President:
I wish to thank you for your kindness in signing the
photograph of the presentation of the Ark for the Holy Scrolls
to you on behalf of my President, Dr. Chaim Weizmann.
This memorable photograph will always remain for me
a symbol of the historic role you, Mr. President, played in
the creation of the State of Israel, a role which I have been
privileged to witness as Israel's first Ambassador to your
great country.
Please accept my deepest feelings of appreciation and
respect.
Very sincerely yours,
E. Elath
