Exchange of letters with Rabbi Tzvi Pesach Frank, Av Beit Din of Jerusalem, with respect to establishing which day is Purim in the new neighborhoods.
Rabbi Yechiel Michel was very involved in the boundaries of the new neighborhoods, and he published his (innovative) perspective in this pamphlet for the first time. On Rosh Chodesh Elul 1946, Rabbi Tzvi Pesach already wrote him a long letter with comments and criticism, and several days later, Rabbi Yechiel Michel replied in response to this letter. In Adar 1947, Rabbi Tzvi Pesach wrote back [this responsum was printed in Shu”t Har Tzvi , section 129]. In the month of Av, Rabbi Yechiel Michel Tukachinsky replied back, a responsum that contains important historic details. Rabbi Tzvi Pesach Frank’s response from Rosh Chodesh Elul is lengthy, and as yet unprinted!
