Halachic handwritten and signed letter by the Ga'on Rabbi Moshe Feinstein to Rabbi Shimon Efrati. New York, 21 Elul [1963].
Pertaining to Kashrut authorization for “Zim” shipping lines which desires to establish a non-kosher kitchen alongside the kosher kitchen on a ship. In conclusion of letter Rabbi Moshe Feinstein states that any rabbi who grants authorization of Kashrut for this "is unworthy of rabbinical ordination even if he was previously ordained as rabbi since he feeds forbidden food to the Jewish nation. However, I am certain that a rabbi who would allow such a thing does not exist except for one affiliated with the Reform sect who themselves eat ritually unclean food…". [Letter printed in "Halichot Sadeh" journal, Av 1987].
