Letter to Mrs. Albert Fried, the national president of the National Women's League of the United Synagogue of America, in part: "Thank you very much for writing to me, with Mrs. Treiger, on 29 July about my attending the League's Convention continuation which, I am happy to learn, you are arranging to hold in Jerusalem between 9 and 11 May of 1965. I shall be glad of that opportunity to address your delegates, and I suggest that, nearer the time, you might get in touch with my Office to settle an exact day and hour for the occasion: I am honoured and deeply moved by the intention to present me then with the Mathilde Schechter Award, in our own Capital…I was greatly interested in the details which you gave of the organization, activities and publications of the League, and especially of Departments that aim to instill in its members a practical concern for Israel's cultural and economic progress and to inspire secondary scholars and collegians with the ideals of Judaism." In fine condition. Mathilde Roth Schechter was the founder of the Women’s League For Conservative Judaism.
