November 10, 1952 Dear Friend Jack Neidebach, The Hebrew Actors' Union is very thankful to you for the stand which you have taken in the interest of the Yiddish Theatre, especially for the stand you have taken that Yiddish organizations should patronize the Yiddish Theatre in every way possible. We wish there were many good Jews like you who would try to uphold the Yiddish Theatre, and if all the Jewish organizations would follow your example and patronize' the theatre, our economic and financial standing would be a much better

one.
