Exchange with Leo Schapiro about "Kissinger and the Jews" (1976)

As to the Park House plot you refer to, I enclose H.K.’s will and related works. Should you have any time to devote to H.K., I should gladly give you the evidence to appear as a conclusion instead of just contributing to such a noble cause as our children’s foundations. As you can see from the enclosed, H.K. did. Sincerely yours, Hermann Masor, Weizman St., Netanya 1975

Exchange with Man about His Religious Development (1964)

Dear Rabbi Lamm, I want to thank you for having invited me to attend the Talmud classes. This was a very good and stimulating experience for me. I also enjoyed the "davening" as well. The act of putting on my Tefillin and Tallis was very "delicious." This stimulated many thoughts and feelings within myself which are very difficult to express in word language. Ther are several things that I want. I would like to be a "mentsch." I would like to be able to live the words, "with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your might." I would like to become more acquainted with God. Am I asking too much?I will appreciate any help end guidance you can offer me.Thank you for your kindness and consideration to me.Sincerely yours,[redacted]

Exchange with R. Elkanah Schwartz about Reconvening "Chavrusa" (1967)

Dear Rav Lamm: I hope this note finds you and yours in the best of health. You might recall the wonderful moments of “Chavrusas” of a few years ago. One of the moving spirits was Rabbi Jacobovits. I wish to recommend a reconvening of the group, but not for just another Tzaychem L’Shalom. During his tenure on these shores, Rabbi Jacobovits undoubtedly drew some impressions which he would be interested in sharing with a few yichedey segulah, outside the rigidity of the established organizations. (I base this remark not on knowledge but on assumption.) Should you and he be interested, I would be happy to forward the “Chavrusas” list. I leave this matter to your respected judgement. Looking forward to good news on all fronts, I remain Sincerely yours, Elkanah Schwartz
