His Excellency the Minister of Finance, the Respected
The Meir Elias Hospital has received from America from the A. S. Aloe Coy company
surgical instruments and tools shipped in two boxes valued at 1269.20 dollars, which
equals 316 Dinars. This shipment has arrived at the port of Basra, and since
these imports were not brought for trade but rather for the purpose of using them for charitable
and humanitarian purposes, we request Your Excellency to kindly exempt them from customs import duties.
Please accept, Your Excellency, the assurances of our highest respect;

To the President of the (Hevra Kadisha) Society, the Honorable Rabbi Salman Hoki
Greetings,
1 - The sons of Ibrahim Shalom, who are the persons tasked with transporting the deceased to the cemetery, have become accustomed
to taking out stretchers and other items from the hospital when they come in the event of a person's death,
under the pretext of covering them on the road and other excuses. We have drawn their attention
to this repeatedly but to no avail. It happened in recent days that they took a coffin with a deceased child
without the knowledge of the administration or any person in the hospital. Then, when we learned of it and sent the servant
to bring it back, they apologized for its presence with them and promised to return it, but they have not returned it until now despite the passage of
ten days and despite the servant's daily insistence. Therefore, we request that you kindly send
1/150 Dinars to the hospital administration as compensation against a receipt from us for the price of the mentioned coffin,
because the aforementioned persons are affiliated with your esteemed society. Please be informed that we will take measures
regarding the hospital gatekeepers to not allow them entry at all if they continue these shameful acts
of theirs. On the other hand, the administration will itself make the necessary arrangements to send the deceased
from the hospital to the cemetery.
2 - They have also become accustomed to demanding an amount ranging between 400 - 600 fils from the administration
for the death of a small child in the event that his family is unable to pay anything due to their poverty, and as
you know, the arrangement of such cases is the responsibility of your society.
Therefore, we hope that you will take the necessary measures regarding what is stated above, and the matter is yours.
Sincerely,

His Excellency the Minister of Interior, the Respected
Due to the general rise in prices, the revenues of the Jewish hospitals
in Baghdad are no longer sufficient to cover their expenses, which have expanded significantly, such that the deficit
has begun to overtake its fund in a manner that has disrupted the timely payment of salaries, and debts
have begun to accumulate on the hospital in a way that makes one fear the consequences.
The health institutions managed by the community are:
1) Meir Elias Hospital
2) Rima Khedouri Hospital
3) Dispensary for the Poor
4) Dar al-Shifa Pharmacy
It has been decided, in order to alleviate this financial distress that these institutions are going through,
to submit to Your Excellency a request for permission for the Community Presidency to open a public subscription for the benefit of the Jewish hospitals
in the amount of two thousand dinars.
It is our firm hope that Your Excellency will grant us the required permit at the earliest opportunity so that we may manage
the affairs of these beneficial public institutions.
To Your Excellency, much gratitude and respect;

concluded and definitively awarded to him. The full brokerage amount shall be collected from the contractor and given to the two aforementioned
brokers by the Council.

His Excellency the Minister of Social Affairs, the Respected
I present to your Excellency that my late sister Lulu bint Hasqeel Hanna Qattan had entered
Meir Elias Hospital under the name Lulu Cohen Hilal (her husband's name) according to receipt number 2601 and dated
16 / 4 / 1945, and she was in good health to undergo surgery in the aforementioned hospital, and according to what
I received, her illness was definitively diagnosed as HERNIA. Since the aforementioned operation, I do not
believe it should have caused death, therefore I request the favor of ordering the formation of a committee of doctors to investigate
the causes of her death and whether there was negligence by the doctor responsible for performing the aforementioned operation, who is
Dr. Süstmann, or the doctor who administered the anesthesia, and the reason that led to giving full anesthesia instead
of local anesthesia, given that the aforementioned operation is simple, or the reason that prompted the responsible doctor
to perform the aforementioned operation if he believed that the deceased could not tolerate undergoing this
operation, and whether this negligence occurred because care or medical comforts
and others are missing in the aforementioned hospital.
2 - I learned that after the operation was performed on her, GANGRENE formed in her, which is what
caused her a severe fever and vomiting, which indicates that there was an error when performing the operation
on her, and that the responsible doctor did not use the necessary means until it was too late and it was not
possible to save her or reduce her temperature, which indicates that medical care in the aforementioned hospital
is missing. I visited Meir Elias Hospital on 2 / 5 / 1945 requesting to see the papers of the progress of
her illness to confirm that or otherwise, but the responsible doctor, Dr. Süstmann, refused this
request, from which it is concluded that the information I mentioned above was correct and does not accept
hesitation. Therefore, I ask your Excellency to kindly order a thorough investigation of this case in light of
the public interest and the interest of myself, her children, and her other relatives who are directly affected, and to inform me
of the result of this investigation. Please accept my highest regards to your position.
3 - I attach herewith the papers in my possession to facilitate the task of the aforementioned committee:
The Petitioner
Ibrahim Hasqeel Hanna Qattan

Greetings,
We wish to present to your Excellency that the individual named Shlomo Daoud, residing in Faraj Allah quarter No. 18 - 151,
entered Meir Elias Hospital on 31 / 7 / 945 and was discharged after his recovery on 19 / 8 / 945. It will appear
to your Excellency from the details we shall list below that the aforementioned person began, since his discharge, to perform various
childish acts for the purpose of annoying the hospital and forcing the administration to admit him again.
As soon as the mentioned person left the hospital, he claimed that the assistant internal director discharged him before he recovered,
and that the mentioned assistant had no right to discharge any patient. He submitted a petition to the Ministry of Social Affairs in this
regard complaining about his situation. After the investigation conducted by the mentioned Ministry, the invalidity of his claim
and his recklessness in the matter became apparent, so the case was closed. Then he entered the hospital again on 27 / 8 / 945 and was discharged
by the treating physician, Dr. Edward Mahlab, on 2 / 9 / 945. He became enraged by the matter and filed a lawsuit against the doctor,
claiming that the aforementioned doctor hit him in the middle of the ward when he discharged him from the hospital. When the doctor appeared
for trial on the appointed day, the mentioned Shlomo Daoud asked for his forgiveness before the court, and the case was closed on this
basis. He later stated that his purpose in filing the lawsuit was to annoy him (meaning the doctor) and force him
to attend the criminal court and litigate with him.
The aforementioned person was not satisfied with all that, but began harassing most of the hospital nurses on the road and annoying them
with various shameful sayings and utterances. He also went and continues to go to their homes, so they are forced to plead
with him to leave the house in order to get rid of him. Then he began demanding to be given injections and medicines. The doctor of the Dar al-Shifa
clinic examined him several times and saw no reason for that, so he began threatening that he would force the director to provide him with medicine despite
him. Indeed, he claimed that when he went to his house (to the director's house) to plead with him to provide him with injections

Both the manager, Mr. Anwar Khatina, and Dr. Isaac Khatina, who is an employee of the hospital, assaulted him by beating,
so he filed a lawsuit against them in this regard and also claimed that both the nurse Mazli Ezra and Mr. Joseph Cohen, who are
employees at the hospital, were witnesses in the case. When the aforementioned persons attended court on 26 / 9 / 945,
the plaintiff Shlomo Dawood did not attend and the case was closed as well.
It appears to your Excellency that all the actions carried out by this person were only to disrupt the hospital and its employees
and force them to leave their jobs and go to courts, and then his failure to attend, and so on. All of this is due to the failure
of the hospital administration to meet his illegitimate demands and repeatedly admitting him to the hospital ⟦for⟧ his treatment while he suffers from nothing.
It was our hope that the aforementioned would return to his senses and cease performing these acts, but he began to persist
in this misguidance of his, until he continued going to the houses of the nurses and hospital employees and threatening them or defaming
their honors before the public. Among what he did in this regard was going on the evening of 2 / 10 / 1945 to the house of the attendant
Doris Joseph, who is one of the nursing attendants at the hospital, and he assaulted her in her own home with insults,
threats, and public defamation of her and her colleagues, until one of her relatives was forced to file a lawsuit against him with the police,
and next Saturday, corresponding to 6 / 9 / 945, has been set for the trial.
Based on the details mentioned above, I submit this letter of mine to your Excellency, requesting you to provide the possible
assistance and to notify those concerned to take what they see fit to restrain this reckless person.
Please accept the highest expressions of thanks and respect.
