MEIR(SON), GOLDA

(Fourth Prime Minister of the State of Israel, 1898-1978). Two Typed Letters Signed, in Hebrew on letterhead of the Ministry of Labour. << *>> To Secretary of Finance Levi Eshkol. Golda contradicts the argument, then current, that Amidar, the state-owned housing company has largely completed its task of providing new immigrants with adequate housing. She supports the efforts to restructure Amidar so that their work may be furthered rather than terminated. 23rd May, 1954. << *>> To Secretary General of the Histardrut Trade Union M(ordechai) Namir. Golda disassociates herself from a restructuring program for Kibbutz Ein Harod sponsored by a minority of the Mapam party, allowed for the appropriation of the Kibbutz property and that would benefit not the Kibbutz but the initiators of the program. She feels that this would set a dangerous and divisive precedent. 21st June, 1954. One page each. Punch-holes. 8.5 x 6 inches.
