Thanks for the picture, but what is the meaning of “the Javits administration”? If I’m not mistaken, Mr Javits was a Senator…
When publishing history involving the Rebbe, please be extra careful with checking your info before putting it out.

A history lesson to set things straight-
1. the featured photo is of the Rebbe with NY State Governor Hugh Carey (1975-1981. Governor Carey was not an official of he “Javitz” administration; there never was a Javitz administration.
2. There is a photo of the Rebbe with US Senator Jacob Javits, who did not have a z in his name. Javits was one of NY’s US Senators from the 1950s through 1970s.
3. There are two photos of the Rebbe hosting NYC Mayor Robert Wagner and Robert Morgenthau. The photos were likely from 1962 when Morgenthau challenged Nelson Rockefeller for NY Governor. At the time, Morgenthau was US Attorney for Southern NY; he is now the Manhattan District Attorney.

This is Governor Hugh Carey who came together with Senator Jacob Javits for a Yechidus with the Rebbe. He was not an aid to Javits. And Javits never had an administration. He was a Senator.
