On February 8th, the WRB sent out more than 100 letters, all saying the same thing. They wrote to the Joint, the World Jewish Congress, the National Council of Jewish Women, Agudas Israel, the Little House of St. Panteleon, American Relief for Norway, the Armenian General Benevolent Union, Fighting French Relief Committee, Greek Fur Workers Local 70.

They asked for suggestions of what they should be doing. The letter was similar to those sent to embassies and consulates abroad.  What are you doing, what should we be doing, how can we help you, are there ways you can help us? It was a big step for the WRB as they began to put together their program of attack.
