In a letter sent to Judge Joseph M. Proskauer, president of the American Jewish Committee, Colonel Mendelsohn advised him of the stand taken by the New Zionist Organization with regard to a memorandum of the American Jewish Committee to the British Ambassador, Lord Halifax, stating that in order to secure the realization of the international obligations to the Jewish people, Great Britain relinquish its Mandate over Palestine to a condominium of powers.
