Scope and Content

The file contains several letters, telegrams and one memorandum. The correspondence is between members of the Central British Fund for Jewish Relief and Rehabilitation, the American Joint Distribution Committee, the Relief Committee of Jews from Czechoslovakia and the Council of Jewish Communities in Bohemia and Moravia. Several grants have been given by the Central British Fund for establishing an old aged home, busaries for international jewish students in Prague, as well as for text books and scientific instruments. Furthermore subventions for a Kosher Kitchen in Prague and for the Jewish Communitiy in Czechoslovakia were given. For receiving further grants a bursaries committee was created in Prague. The correspondence also deals with rejecting some application for more subventions as the British Fund can not support all the requests as they are to many.
