After greetings, His Excellency Rabbi Sasson Khedouri, the honorable head of the community, acting head of the administrative committee of the Israeli community in Baghdad. The subject is “Tair Elias Hospital, Yassiya Alia As Kila Films Consul, yes yes, title 1200 of it for Salmaniya, no nakedness, Mulla Eid Issa, but he did not have any evidence for us, O time to the north of Ka’ana, as for the origin of the financial, because of what I am, ale, the money of the daughters of Hayya, no, on the tongue of the banner of the year of the beard, we are adenotrait) L) We created them and taught them. 2.0.0) 4.

Interpretation of the night, for him, and for the sake of the one who sees - 7, which is not hidden To any of the members of this group and others, what I have related of the efforts in establishing what is now called the Elias Hospital, those efforts by which it was possible to convert barren lands into prosperous buildings with all their facilities, furniture and complete equipment that are suitable for large hospitals and their facilities and doctors, each according to his specialty, and nurses and others, without any amount being spent from the community fund for that establishment and other things, and I did not receive any salary or allowances or anything else during my fourteen-year work. In light of that, I hope you will note what has come to my attention, that the intention is to rent a building that is originally a residential house and turn it into a hospital. In view of my expertise in the subject and my deep experience in it, I say clearly and decisively that houses are rarely suitable to be buildings that serve as hospitals, for many reasons that are not hidden from the man who is informed about the subject. On this occasion, I would like to point out to you that near the old gate of Mir Elias Hospital there is a courtyard that was the residence of the late Mir Elias, with a very large garden. This house, after spending on it the equivalent of two years’ rent for any rented house, could be an ideal hospital sufficient for this community in the current circumstances in general. I am prepared to explain this idea to the engineer and expert of the Putin Hospital for this purpose. The idea stated in the above paragraph has the advantage of stability for the hospital’s tools, machines, etc., so that they do not have to be moved repeatedly from one house to another, which these precious tools cannot bear. On this occasion, I present to you a report of my work in Mir Elias Hospital for the years from 1934 to 1944, in accordance with the report issued in 1944, for the benefit of everyone to know how this hospital was formed and the efforts and the way in which the community became the full owner of the hospital in all aspects. I hope that all members of your esteemed committee will read this report. I am also prepared to explain to any lawyer or experienced person that the floor attached to the hospital buildings is not included within the hospital. Perhaps this The hospital is dear to me and I will remember it for a long time. I have submitted this book. With my utmost respect, Number 10-1902, known as Merd Nakor.
His Excellency the President of the Administrative Committee of the Jewish Community in Baghdad, the Respected
Greetings and respect, and with reference to your letter dated 24/12/953 and numbered
with the number M/53/2.
I have no objection to participating with the lawyer Mr. Sion Guigi to assist the great
Professor Daoud Samra in studying the endowment deeds of the community and understanding their legal conditions.
However, I request that instructions be given to the competent official to prepare and send the deeds related to the endowments
required to be studied as quickly as possible so that we can begin studying them
and submit a report on what appears to us, and to your Excellency the highest respect.
30 December 1953

from the representative of the Director of the British Council in Baghdad regarding the admission
of students to English universities, which were used to select candidates

Please accept our highest respect.

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN
According to the Regulations governing Minimum Enterance Requirements of london University : -
" A person who holds a full practising professional qualification obtained by examination may apply to the Secretary to the University Entrance and School Examinations Council for his qualification to be considered as satisfying minimum entrance require-
ments .
In order to be considered under this regulation the applicant must show that he holds ( by examination ) a qualification which is either a necessary qualification for the practice of a recognised profession , or one of the qualifications which would normally be accepted for a public appointment in the field of that profession . In considering an application account may be taken of the general education and age of the applicant . The applicant may be summoned for interview , and may be required to pass in additional subjects at the Examination for the General Certificate of Education or an equivalent examination " .
The Northen Universities are prepared to accept the Iraq Baccalaureate as qualifying for Minimum Entrance Requirements , provided that the candidate is recommended by the Iraq Ministry of Education . They would , therefore , obviously be prepared to consider acceptance of the Engineering College Diploma . In either case they would wish to satisfy themselves as to the adequacy of the candidates ' knowledge of English .

London, W.2.
28th November, 1953.
Mr. A.S.Obadia,
Shamash School,
Baghdad.
Dear Mr. Obadia,
I hope this letter will find you well and happy.
In the first place, I wish to apologize for not writing to you
any earlier, as I was too busy in getting settled, which is the biggest
difficulty a new-comer faces in such a city as London. I also have
been preparing for an entrance examination which took practically all
my time.
On the next day of my arrival to London I contacted the Faraday
House of Engineering where I had been accepted, but I found out that
the said Institute does not grant any degree or qualification, as it
does not belong to the University of London, which is actually the
Ministry of Education here. The only thing this Institute could give
was an opportunity for paid practical training, i.e. they were prepared
to fix me with a company and to pay me about £3 a week, as they do to <del>the</del>
their graduates and after serving for one year or two, I could join the
Civil Engineers Association. However, as the Home Office does not allow
those who land as students to get employment, whether paid or unpaid,
my application for this institute was immediately rejected.
Then I tried to join some Colleges belonging to the University of
London, but I was not accepted as a Post Graduate or as an advanced
student, as our certificate is not recognised by them, and in case I
wanted to get the B.Sc. Degree, I had to start all over again from the
first year. I tried very hard with them, but I was told there was no
hope, as regulations here are above everything. I went to Manchester
Glasgow Liverpool, Nottingham, and to many other cities with a hope to
be accepted at least in the B.Sc. Class, but still it was of no use.
Those were really the hardest days I had in my life, and I was
completely lost not knowing what to do, as I found not a single plan
to work out. The Home Office sent after me to know whether I had joined
a college or not. Then I decided to join the Physics Dept. where I was
given two years exemtion, provided I pass a special entrance exam to be
set for me. The examination was on 23rd, 24th and 25th this month, and
I did quite well, I still have a practical exam to pass, which will
take place in December. The final results will be given early in Jan-
uary, and I am going to keep you informed.
Our studies start from 9.30 A.M. to 5.30 P.M., and I am enclosing
here-with an attendance certificate which I presented to the Embassy.
Life in London is much more expensive than it is in Baghdad. It is
rainy and cloudy most of the time.
I am sending you by separate mail a book called Intermediate Pure
Mathematics, published in February, 1953, to cover Trigonometry, Algebra,
Co-ordinate Geometry and Calculus in compliance with the requirements of
the G.C.E. Advanced Level and the Intermediate Examination of the Unive-
rsity of London. This book is being widely used in England by most of
the universities.
I am sure everything is quite in order with the School with your kind
efforts, and I firmly believe that the students are doing well the year,
specially those of the Fourth. Please explain to them that the G.C.E. is
very essential for those who wish to continue their studies in England.
Please give my regards to Abu Meir, Mr. Shohet and others.
All the best.
Yours truly,
Sd/- Isaac.
