Typewritten leaf, hand-signed by the rebbes. The rebbes condemn the decision to discontinue government funding of R. Landau's rabbinical system, which was independent from the religious council. This step represented a new level in the decades-long struggle with political and governmental bodies who opposed the R. Landau's independent rabbinate.
