During the conversation, they could discuss and exchange information on topics, such as today's situation of Jews both in France and Holland and the influence of B’nai B’rith in this context.
The members of the Emeth Lodge in Avignon were very happy to have had the opportunity to meet Reinold Simon and expressed hope that there would be other occasions to communicate with members of B’nai B’rith in other European countries.
