.\;-0; you lHHloubtt:>dly know, 'my anIlual fee is $12.000. whic,h is paid me through
fee,
the mechanism 0'1' the American Jewish Congress. Since the Congress is good
enough to do this service to }lie and the Agency, it is enly proper that they should
be ac("omrnodated as to the mode of payments which they prefer. Since" they fTe
use tbe system of biweeldy pay periods, tbey pay me accordingly, prorated at tio
$461.fH: per pay. period. The fact that Itzik and you forward them a cberk
montbly is not wholly relevant to tbeir system. Frequently'that check covers
tbe necessary amount-when there are only two pay periods in the gi,en
month, Rut sometimes the monthly check dqes DOt snffice, especially wli~n there
a rp three pay periods in the'month.

research project for the State of Israel?
Mr. HAMLIN. No,sir.
The CHAIRMAN. How else do you explain that ~
~Ir. HAMLIN. This was a method of reconciling various accounts.
Since we owed money to the .Toint Fund, we applied the money
that the Consu late was paying us to take care of our obligations t.o
the joint fund. It was a purely mechanical method of reconciling

1\ow, while I am at it, ~fr. ('hairmnn. 1 would likp to :-:ay on£> mure
word so that you will have the information.
I personally, in my capacity as counsel, had n. gre~lt dp:d to do with
the reorganization of act.Ivity whiSh took place in 19()(). I pal1 icipated
that in many meetings. At no time., ~fr. Chainnan\ did the ~rvic.es:. or
loney functions of Mr. Kenen enter into a discussion which had a.nything to
do with the reorgn.nization or t.he purposes for the reorganization. .
I u.m saying- this simply so that the record be clear and so that no un-
o ar- fair inferences may be drawn as to the payments being made to Mr.
}{enen.
The CHAIRMA~. laIn I'(\,minded, !\fr. I{enen in his own letter says
t hat these subscriptions. frOin the Zionist Council n. n:>rage about 23
pprcent. of the total eirculation expirpd in 1962.
Yon do not regn.rd l\fr. }{enen, for practical purposes, as ~n em-
p.e of plovee of the Agency ~
~r r. lI.AMLIN. Definitely not.
The CHAIRMAN. Do you find his policies in disagreement with
'tours?

Tho CIl.\IR:U.\x. I havc 110 doubt of it.

:t hundred of tlu.'Ill, I gue~~, they are H'ry favorablc and I am not
o VOIl suggesting that they an' in your employ. I am suggesting Mr. Kenen
is receiving- far more of his funds from the Jewish-the Israel Gov-
,\'mlld ernment. dIrectly and indirectly than is The New York Times. They
·t, not are doing it strictly on their own, at least as far as I know.
t this I really shouldn't speak authoritatively because' we hnn>n't lookpd
at it but it is quite clear Mr. !{enen has been, for practical purposes, as
kno\\ he states himself, up to a certain point of your reorganization, he was
on your payroll. Then in order to insulate him you took this indirect
wa.y of paying him by buying his product and paying him in that way.
cr. i am only trying to understand how this is done. I don't know why
I your he shouldn't register. "
o"f me 1\11'. BOUKSTEIN. That is a matter of opinion, Mr. Chairman. My
L~idy opinion as a lawyer is that he is not subject to registration.
~rIcan Tho CHATH;\L\N. I am sure that is your present opinion. When I
ved it say shouldn't rrgister, I am thinkin~ really of a law if it is to be effec-
llldn't t ive at all the way it ou~ht to be written, not the way it is written. I
suppose that is what I am saying.
~Ir. BOUKSTEIN. There, Mr. Chairman, I may agree with you. If

There would bl" a drop in the Agency's
contribution to housing for immigranl5
and a . rise in the allocation for "'ork in
Ihe Diaspora- "it is still not enough," Mr
Pincus told thr Council
Ten per cent of the new budgt>t would
be allocated for education in hrael "1

the whole Jt:'Wish world' should know how

hoped that to the corning )'~aT special

According to the anticipated mcome

a substantial deficit which. Mr Pincus
said; would largely be coverte! by long-.

committing our future"
Mr Pincus Bald that In the past 14 years
the Agency had Spenl $1.500m, from all
sources. which atlhe begtnning of the next
fiscal'~year would leavt:' the Agenc)' with
a debt o£ some $18001 This would not bl"

Chairman, Oommittee 011 Foreign Rcla!iolloll,

RSE DEAR SENATOR FULBRIGHT: I thank yOll for your letter of July 23, and the
excerpts enclosed of testimony presented before your committee in executiy~
session on :\Iay 23 which concern the Jewish Telegraphic Agency.
to I am gratefUl for this opportunity.to review thIs testimony which correctly sets
re- forth the r0'lationship between this agency and the .Jewish Agency.
In lDf,l, the .ITA was in aeute 'fin:lIIcial difficulties which seYerely constricted
}O"
b'::> its operation:; aIH1, in fact, jeopardized its continued existence. To preyeut the
"i It total collapse of this news service which was considered vital to the well·being
of the Jewish community, the Jewish Ageney was requested by the JTA. to inter-
'i I. \('ne and pro'-ide the funds to permit J'rA to eontinue functioning on what was
expected to bt' a provisional basis. It became nominally the owner of the Jewish
:01' T<.'legraphic Agency through ownership of the" yoting shares by transfer from
the late Jacob Landau, founder of tbe JTA. Por a long time, the JTA regarded
advances by the Jewish ,Agency as interest-free loans.
lll.
The Jewish A~t'ncy did not interfere or attempt to interfere in the editorial
operation of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency, its policies, its news content, its
selection and treatment of news, its reporti.g, or the management of its business.
The Jewish Telegraphic Agency is gratiful to the Jewish Ageney for having
made it possible to continue its opera~ions and render important services
Ie to the Jewh;h community. We believe that the American Jewish community is
under a deep obligation to the Jewish Age.ncy for having preserved this service
for it.
The Jewish Telegraphic Agency has served the Jewish people. the American
Jewish community and the free world generally fOf- more than 46 years. It (s)
sole purpose and its sole function has been to report as accurately and objectively
as human frailties permit those developments anywhere in the world of special
concern or interest tO'the Jewish people. to brIng to light information which their
~­
well-being required had to provide the information on which Jewish leadership
1- could take informed action.

'With reference to the letter that I was asked by the chairman to write to the
Israeli Consulate, I am enclosing a COP3' of my letter to Ambassador Katz, the
('lIUtlSt'! G(,[I('ral of Israel ill i\cw York, ualt'd .\ugust lU, If)63. I haYe not as yet
)heard from him.
I Cited OIl p. 17:2G. see p. 17:29 for COllY of letter.)
:.\lr. Hamlin is still OIl yaeatioll. hut we IHlve made every effort, together
. . with his staff, to furnish. you with the following information requested of him:
In ill
~ness, "Item 2. Information pCl·taining to 1 months' salary paid Mr. Rosenberg, cited
r coI- in a lettcr dated September 8, 1960 (p. 11'33)"
l that Fir::it, muy we call your attention to the fact that the salary paid to Mr. Rosen-
,t}('r~ in the amount of $1.3RO, as eited ill trhe fir!'lt paragraph of the letter, is for
the 3-month period of January, February, and March, 1959. The salary paid to
Mr. Rosenberg in the amount of $1,400, as cited in the secOnd paragraph of the
,eouSe letter. is for th€' 3-month period of April, May, and June, 1959. Neither figure
they refers to 1 month's salary.
,Mr. Rosenberg was an. employee of the Israeli Consulate. The Consulate
billed the Ag(>ncy for Mr. Rosenberg's services in connection with the Westeril
Hemisphere project. At perfomc intervals, the Consulate and tbe Agency settled
their Hccounts. This letter represents such a settlement, and indicates that a
credit is due the Agency for an amount previously billed by the Consulate and
paid by the Agen<,y. On page 2 there is a reeonciliation which shows that the
Ict to Agf'ncy has o\"(~rpaid a totnl of $11,753 for the period in question, and this amount
is. therefore, credited to the Agency's account. \>.

"Item 3. Wllether payments referred to in mcmoraWda of March 2, 1.962, Febru-

ary 23, 1962, and May 1, WGO 1 tecre t'cportcd to the Department of JU8tice
(p. 17ul)"
The llUyJIH'nts referrpd to in the said .Illf'lllornnda were reported to the Depart-
ment of Ju:;tice under the hf'adin~ "Grants aud S'ubventions-Educational and
Cultural Activities." On October 3, ]962, in an amendment to the Registration
Statf'IlH>nt of :\Iarch 31, 19G2. the payments, referred to in the memoranda of
March :2. 1!162. ann Fehruary 23, 1002, were detnUed as follows: "To the Hebrew.'
Cultnrt' Fonndation-for grants to encourage Hebrew and Israeli studies at
('ollf'gf>s and universities in the enited States".
"Item 4. Whether contemplated .Qrant to Columbia 7~efC'red to in extracts of
