Rosenberg Also see: File 320, PEC Annual Reports. Memoranda, minutes, reports, Correspondence, addenda. The PEC was organized in February 1925 by a merger of the assets in Palestine of the JDC Reconstruction Committee and the Palestine Cooperative Co., so as to aid in the economic development of the country along productive lines. F. M. Warburg, H. H. Lehman, Louis Marshall and B. Flexner, were among the organizers. The latter became President and subsequently Chairman of the Board. The JDC also appropriated $1,500,000 to the PEC, payable in three annual installments beginning in 1926. In 1927, the PEC waived its right to $50,000 of that sum which was granted to the Palestine Emergency Loan Fund, see: File 313. By 1932 the JDC had paid $1,150,000 of its PEC appropriation, and an agreement was reached with respect to the $300,000 balance, see: File 319. | ||||
