His Eminence the Acting Chief Rabbi of Baghdad, the Respected
Greetings and respect.
Reference to your letter numbered 1162 / H and dated 4 / June 1930.
1- The Lay Council's ratification of the contract concluded with Doctor
Sinan is sufficient to dispense with the services of the former hospital director Sassoon Effendi
for the reasons explained to your Eminence in our previous letter.
2- After dispensing with the services of the former accountant Meir Effendi Basri,
the committee was satisfied with making one of the hospital employees who was keeping the account books
previously its clerk, just as the accounting matters are under the supervision of the committee itself, and this does not require
the ratification of the Lay Council.
3- It is not hidden from your Eminence that appointing a permanent doctor for the hospital is
among the necessary and mandatory matters for the hospital, just as the Directorate of General Health has stated to us
that it is not permissible to name the institution as a hospital without that, and current laws do not permit
maintaining this situation, and we think that the Health Administration will be forced to close the hospital without the
permanent doctor, and the appointment of the current doctor was in consultation with the Directorate of General Health and its approval,
so we do not think your Eminence sees it as correct to terminate the contract based on the tightness of the funds, rather duty
requires us to meet the doctor's allocations from savings and from the existing staff army.

in the hospital, for whom we see no necessity, among them the former director Sassoon Effendi.
Nor can we imagine that the Lay Council, being of sound opinion, would leave the hospital without a
permanent doctor and sacrifice the desired goal for it.
4- Our respected Master. Our committee has no desire to take negative paths
against your respected administration; on the contrary, it reveres it and takes its advice for what brings good
to the hospital and the public interest. Placing the director, by necessity, outside the staff is not seen by us as
something that requires any disruption to hospital affairs, especially since the election of the Lay Council is
imminent. On the contrary, keeping him in this state is what generates confusion in the administration and problems
and harm that cannot be avoided. The committee does not think your position sees it as sound judgment to prolong
the discussion on this issue, which is within the jurisdiction of the Administrative Committee, which is in contact with the matters
and more informed about them than any other person.
The committee is acting according to what its conscience and heart dictate, just as it is
responsible to the Lay Council and before God if it performs an act contrary to its conscience
and the truth.
We hope that our sound intentions will be taken into consideration, and that you will accept,
Sir, our highest greetings and respects.

Pursuant to your letter No. 1162/A dated June 4, 934, issued by your Excellency and referred
to the Meir Elias Hospital Committee regarding my continued service in my position performing the aforementioned hospital service as Director
thereof. When I commenced my aforementioned duties on the 4th of the same month, at sunset, one of the hospital servants
came with a porter and brought the items that were in the Director's room at the aforementioned hospital and placed them
in my house without my knowledge or presence. The committee has dared to act against the law and regulations, for how
can it be permissible for the committee to commit such a crime by breaking a lock and deciding upon my belongings, of which I do not know the status,
which have been deposited for many years in an official room. Therefore, as stated in this petition to your Excellency,
I request that legal action be taken against the aforementioned committee for this audacity contrary to the law

Honorable Vice President of the Hospitals Committee
Reference to your letter No. 590 dated 5 June 1930
The discussion regarding the case of the hospital director, Sassoon Effendi Hakham Heskel, has been prolonged without
avail. This case has become important and must be addressed as quickly as possible. I have reviewed
the papers and correspondence and found no position that supports what you mention regarding the necessity of dismissing the aforementioned director from his position
for the following reasons:-
a) The approval of the previous Lay Council of the agreement concluded between your committee and -
the physician Dr. Nissim Sinani does not necessitate the removal of the aforementioned director Sassoon from his position, as
no decision was issued by the previous Lay Council containing his dismissal and the appointment of his successor. Your statement
is merely an interpretation in my view, and an interpretation cannot be ruled upon as long as the authority is absent, especially since
the internal regulations prevailing in your committee, approved by the Lay Council according to Article
19, stipulates the appointment and dismissal of the director and the accountant by an approval signed by the Lay Council.
The removal of the aforementioned director from his position was nothing but a dismissal, and as long as the Lay Council
has not decided it, his remaining in his position until the convening of the new Council has become an unavoidable matter.
b) As previously stated in the first item, the appointment of the accountant is among the powers of the Lay Council as
stated in Item 19 of the committee's regulations. If his appointment was not approved, the committee may not employ him. Accordingly,
your appointment of one of the employees as an accountant and removing accounting matters from the hands of Director Sassoon Effendi was contrary to
the regulations. Entrusting accounting matters to the aforementioned Sassoon Effendi, the director, is a matter of necessity.
c) We have received complaints and grievances from each of the doctors and one of the hospital founders, and a petition
signed by most members of the community regarding keeping the aforementioned director in his position. There is no reason to reject all
these protests and remove the aforementioned director from his position, as that would generate unsatisfactory results,
which current circumstances do not allow to be generated. As long as maintaining affection and the stability of the community's conditions
in a commendable state is mandatory for me, I see it as correct that keeping the aforementioned director in his position until
the formation of the Lay Council has become an inevitable matter. Therefore, I hope you will carefully consider the preceding
statements and close this case by employing the aforementioned person as before and keeping things as they were.

And I am in firm hope that your committee will look into the situation as it truly is and that the formation
of the council will be completed as soon as possible. With respect,
