taking the necessary steps for the incorporation of the
N.S.A.. This step, he feels, is of a vital importance to the further
development of your Assembly, and will no doubt give it more stability and
an added influence, specially in the eyes of the general public.

The Guardian would also advise that the local assemblies take a similar
step, and obtain official recognition from the authorities. In case the
Auckland assembly has been registered in the government, will you be so
kind as to send him photostatic reproductions of any registration papers
or documents that the Auckland friends may have obtained from the
authorities, as he wishes to have them published in the next "Baha'i
World".

As regards the photograph of your N.S.A; the Guardian wishes me to inform
you that in going over the manuscript of the "Baha'i World", which was
sent to him from the States, he found your Assembly's picture already
incorporated in it. The manuscript has now been sent back to America and
is awaiting publication.

With loving Baha'i greetings,
Yours in His Service,
H. Rabbani.

[From the Guardian:]

Dear and valued co-worker:

The incessant efforts so devotedly exerted by the members of your
distinguished assembly are assets that I greatly value and of which I am
truly proud. I will fervently pray for the extension of your activities
and the fulfilment of your dearest hopes. Rest assured and persevere.

Your true and grateful brother,
Shoghi.

LETTER OF SEPTEMBER 23RD, 1936

September 23rd, 1936

Dear Miss Brooks,

Your detailed communication of July 14th written on behalf of the N.S.A.
of Australia and New-Zealand, together with its enclosures have all duly
arrived, and their contents read with deepest interest and appreciation by
our beloved Guardian. Also the photographs and blocks have duly reached
him, as well as the local Assembly reports sent under separate cover.
Please accept his most sincere and grateful thanks for them all.

Regarding the proposed News Letter to be issued every three months by your
N.S.A; this, the Guardian feels, is a splendid idea and can render a
unique and much-needed help to your Assembly in its efforts for the
establishment of the Administration, and the more effective functioning of
its institutions throughout Australia and New-Zealand. Not only it has the
great advantage of keeping the friends well-informed about the events and
developments in the Cause, but in addition can
