Handwritten Article regarding the Commencement of the Fourth Assembly of Representatives – Disrespect Towards the Rabbis
Handwritten article, written for the press by Ben Shlomo, titled "The Outburst at the Assembly of Representatives" with a detailed description of the insolence displayed towards the Chief Rabbis who participated in the commencement of the Fourth Assembly of Representatives of the Vaad HaLeumi [held in September 1944].
After a detailed account of the lack of honor demonstrated towards Rabbi Katz of Petach Tikva at his entrance to the assembly, the reporter describes the following shameful event: After the speeches of Rabbi Herzog and Rabbi Uziel, one of the leftist representatives burst out and yelled disrespectfully to the chairman of the Assembly of Representatives Mr. Yitzchak ben Zvi: "What's going on here? Two rabbis need to speak here, one is not enough? Let them better send thousands of young men to the army and donate the thousands of lira that they collect abroad to the funds…".
