Letter of 5 May 1934
Dear Bahá'í Friend,
 
1

I wish to thank you in the name of the Guardian for your deeply appreciated letter of April 24th, as well as for the article on Jerusalem which appeared in "Time and Tide", all of which he greatly enjoyed reading.

In regard to Mr. Townshend's book [1] he wishes me to renew his request that your N.S.A. should seriously consider the ways and means for the speedy publication of this highly valuable work, the spread of which cannot but give an unprecedented publicity to the Faith. He values the efforts that have thus far been exerted to this end and particularly appreciates the careful attention you have given the matter and hopes that as a result of these combined efforts something truly substantial will be achieved.

Shoghi Effendi feels rather surprised that no acknowledgment has thus far been made of his last general letter, Feb. 8 [2] , to the believers of the West, a copy of which was forwarded to you as secretary of the N.S.A. Will you please be kind enough to inform him whether the said document has reached you safely.

 
4

With the renewed assurance of his best wishes and of his continued supplications for the speedy development of the Cause in your country.

 
5

Yours in His Service,

 
6

[From the Guardian:] With the assurance of my continued prayers for the extension of
the range of your splendid activities and for the success of your constant and high endeavours,
 
7

Your true brother,

 
8

Shoghi
