of the Cause, I am, I assure you, giving it these days
again my careful and undivided attention, and pray God that to this
problem may soon be found a satisfactory and feasible solution. In the
meantime, I wish to emphasise the fact that I eagerly await, and would
welcome, and would assuredly have time to peruse, most carefully and in
person, every individual letter you may wish to send me, and my readiness
and wish to attend, in the very best way I can, to every matter raised in
those letters. No written message, however unimportant, will first be
opened and read by any one save myself.

Regarding the proposed conference on "Living Religions within the British
Empire", I feel that such a great opportunity for the Movement should not
be neglected, and I am glad to know that it has been seized by the members
of the National Assembly, and is being closely examined by them. I would
welcome further particulars as to who has conceived the idea, under whose
auspices it will be conducted, and whether it is being supported by
government authorities, and what conditions are imposed on its
proceedings. I am discussing the matter with some of the Baha'i
representatives of India and America as to what friends would be most
competent to represent the Cause at this conference. I shall communicate
on this subject with the National Assemblies of India and America, and
will inform you immediately I receive definite information from them.

As to the raising of funds to provide for the expenses of the Baha'i
representatives, I am sure the friends in England will find in the
National Assemblies of India and America and in myself ready and generous
supporters of a step that will undoubtedly prove of immediate and
universal value for the ultimate recognition of the Cause by the world.

It is my ardent prayer that we may all be inspired to adopt the most
effective measures for the successful achievement of this great
undertaking.

I was much impressed by the charm and force of Major Moore's article,
published recently in T. P. Cassell's weekly, and I would much desire to
know whether his action was spontaneous, or whether he was urged or
requested by someone to write it. I strongly urge the friends, and
particularly the members of the National Assembly, to do all in their
power to make of this able and highly-minded admirer of the Cause, a
zealous and true Baha'i. I am looking forward with keen anticipation to
his spiritual development and
