HOTEL CALIFORNIA AT THE OAKLAND END OF THE BRIDGE THIRTY-FIFTH AND SAN PABLO AVENUE OAKLAND, CALIFORNIA November 19th. 1938 Supreme Advisory Council, Aleph Zadik Aleph, 1003 K. Street N. W., Washington, D. C. Gentlemen; As you know the A. Z. A. regional convention was held in Oakland, California November 10th - 14th. We were for- tunate in having them use the California Hotel for their headquarters. The employees of the hotel and myself did everything possible to help them have the best convention in the history of the local chapter, and feel quite sure that is was the best. My personal thanks and congratulations are extended to your entire organization for the splendid work in which you are doing in competitive training and character building. During my many years in the hotel business, I have never had the pleasure of serving so fine a delegation of young people. The youngest of them could not be criticised for any carelessness in conduct. Much could be said for such young leaders as Burton Polse, Lowell Adelson, Stanley Rudee and others. of the local chap- ter. Also Mr. I. W. Alkus and others of the local advisory board. They are doing a fine job locally. Congratulating you again for the splendid work your organ- ization in doing, and hoping we have the pleasure of being their host again in the near future, I am, Brother Alephs the rate Respectfully, one A.Z.A. that Frino this from you!
