| · Scope and Content | Correspondence, Kaplan-Loeb and Troper, and Loeb and Troper-Kaplan, numbered letters, General #136-211. The K. P., a small loan fund, was created in Palestine as a relief activity during World War I. A central office was opened in Jerusalem and local offices in smaller cities and towns. In September 1921, the JDC allocated L 10,000 to the K.P. for the grant of small productive loans. Dr. David de Sola Pool reorganized the K. P. and managed it until his return to the United States at the end of 1921. He was succeeded by S. A. Van Vriesland and I. Braude acting as Co-Directors. In 1922, the JDC authorized Samuel Kaplan, of Loeb and Troper, to audit the accounts of its offices in Palestine, including the K. P. His K. P. audit stretched from June 1922 to February 1924 and it generated a bitter feud with Van Vriesland and Braude. They remained as Co-Directors until early in 1924 when the JDC transferred the management of the K. P. administration to the Palestine Cooperative Company.
