As a number of questions raised in your communications addressed to the
beloved Guardian have been answered by cable or through the Assistant
Secretary, I will not go into these matters here, but merely acknowledge
on his behalf receipt of the letters from your National Body, together
with their enclosures and material sent under separate cover which were
dated as follows: July 22, August 8, 9, 11 (two), 12 (two), and 18,
September 7, 9, 10, 23 (three), 26 and 28, October 7 (two), 13 (two), 25,
26, 28 (two), and 29, November 3, 4, 9, 21 (two), 24 and 30, December 1,
2, 9 (three), 19 and 29 (two), 1955, and January 6, 10, 17, 23, 27, and 30
(two), February 10, 16, and 27, March 8, 9, 19, and 29, April 2, 10, 13,
16, 17, and 26, May 4, 14, 16, 31, and June 13, 19, 22, and 29, 1956.

to meet the requirements of the work in Great Britain, responded to the
needs of their persecuted brethren in Persia, deeply touched him. These

roots of the Faith and strengthen its institutions.

As he advised you by cable, he felt it unwise to seek to
