· Scope and Content | JDC earmarks $100,000 for the Central Reconstruction Bank, 2/5/23. Agudas Israel, Warsaw, complains that orthodox group was not invited to join Central Reconstruction Bank Board, 1/18/23, 2/7/23. JDC instructs Reconstruction Department, Warsaw, that administration boards at Central Reconstruction Bank should represent all segments of Jewish community, 2/9/23 - 4/25/23. JDC deposits $50,000 in Polish State Bank, 8/1/23 - 9/24/23, 10/16/23. Correspondence: Paul Baerwald, M. Freund, Joseph C. Hyman, A. Lucas, H. H. Lehman, L. G. Robinson, James N. Rosenberg, A. Teitelbaum. In late 1921, the JDC sought to found a Jewish Reconstruction Bank in Warsaw, as a joint stock company, for the grant of Reconstruction loans, but the Government license needed was not forthcoming. In November 1922, the JDC purchased a joint stock company, the Bank Rosyjsko-Polski, Warsaw, the Russian-Polish Bank, at a cost of $35,000, and renamed it Bank dla Spoldzielni, Central Reconstruction Bank, to serve as a central agency for the federations of Jewish loan cooperatives in Poland. The revised bank charter received govt approval. The JDC, and subsequently the JDC Foundation, made substantial grants to the Central Reconstruction Bank. | ||||
