Letter addressed to "Respectful Members" (Members of Central Committee). [Early 1920's]. "The 'Zichronim' [people of Zichron Ya'akov] owners of Burj farm decided to establish a Moshavah in this farm, in order to settle their sons there… some of them are members of our union and have no means, we enquire whether the union could assist them". Burj farm was purchased to enable the enlargement of Zichron Ya'akov, and let farmers settle there. Later this settlement was named "Tel Binyamin" and as of 1923 – Binyamina. Amongst the signatories: secretary Asher Shatzman, member of "HaGide'onim" organization. Leaf 27 cm. Good condition. Torn filing holes. Few stains. Folding marks.
