Governance role

Wiggershaus identifies Pollock as the Society board representative who signed the October 1930 contract with Horkheimer. He also served in administrative and financial roles and later chaired the Society.

Limit

The exact board office held in October 1930, full delegations, salary terms, and chairmanship dates require the restricted contract file and Society minutes.
