Tomarkin should be encouraged to come to Berlin and discuss with Rudolf Ehrmann the details of the possible donor and the donor’s wishes. Comments on Warburg’s letter regarding the composition of the BOGHU. The executive committee proposed Edmund Landau, Ehr- mann, and Leonard Ornstein to strengthen the academic membership of the board Josef Horovitz, Martin Buber, and Schloessinger were invited by Judah L. Magnes himself, who also proposed Cyrus Adler, Herbert Bentwich, Cassirer, Hirsch Chajes, Joseph Hertz, Sacher, and Täubler. Weizmann was proposed by Buber in his capacity of a great promoter of the Hebrew University, not as president of the Zionist Organisation. Hopes that AE will convey these matters to Warburg. TLC.
