Title:
Letter from Max Weinreich to Jacob Shatzky
Description:
Letter from Max Weinreich in Vienna to Jacob Shatzky in New York, apparently in response to an angry letter about slipshod practices in YIVO. Weinreich answers Shatzky's charges in detail and affirms his belief that YIVO will improve and achieve a firm foothold in Vilna. "I don't believe you could create anything better in New York. But Vilna YIVO couldn't exist without New York and the Institute would be much the poorer without you in particular."
