Four Days After the Start of World War II, Jewish Woman Transfers Money from Europe to Haifa

DS. Haifa. A partly printed document signed "Olga Polok" regarding moving funds from her bank fund just four days after the start of World War II: "I... have conferred general authority upon Olga Polak (whose signature please find below) to administer - as he may think fit - all funds or securities now or in future lying for my (our) account with yourselves or with any other offices of the Hollandsche Bank Unie N.V., or with any one of their correspondents; to dispose of same, to receive the countervalue of all securities, moneys, deposits, bills, cheques and promissory notes, telegraphic and letter-payments... to give discharge for same, to give all kinds of instructions and to sign as my (our) mandatory receipts... It is hereby expressly stipulated that I (we) waive the right to notarial notices in connection with any matter arising out of these presents... ". The document has a few light toning patches, and is in fine condition overall. An unusual Holocaust-era document.
