During the audience, Dr. Salit presented the Queen with a framed citation from the Council expressing the gratitude of the Jews to the Dutch people for the assistance they gave the Jews during the late war and the Nazi occupation. The Queen, after accepting the citation, ordered that it be displayed in the Amsterdam City Hall.
