Dear Albert:

The Board of Directors elected you as the Honorary Chairmanof the AFH 1 Division and passed a resolution expressingtheir profound thanks for the leadership which you have givenus in mobilizing the efforts of Doctors in the United Statesfor the Medical School at the Hebrew University. You will begetting a copy of the resolution shortly.

Dr. Seymour Alpert was elected as the National Chairman of theMedical Division and I am confident that he will carryon inan able fashion. Sy is prepared to devote a great deal of timeand effort, particularly to the l~ million dollar program whichwas adopted this past year for the construction of the MedicalAuditorium and the naming of the Medical Teaching Building. Wehave already reached the figure of $300,000 and we are hopefulthat by the end of the calendar year of 1969, we will have allof the pledges in for the l~ million dollars. As you know, thisis a five-year program with most of the doctors enrolling for ~100a year for a maximum of five years. We do have many doctors whohave paid in full and many who are giving us more than $100 a year.I have asked Maxwell Rosen to send you a report bringing you up todate on the results and the plans.

The Staff joins me in expressing their deepest appreciation to youfor the leadership which you have given us and the inspiration whichwe all have from your identification with our efforts. I hope thatyou will still have a little time for us. Mac Rosen will be in touchwith you from time to time to keep you informed and perhaps get someidea of your schedule so that we may be able to take advantage of yourtraveling around the United States whenever possible.
