Regarding the Baha’i News, I strongly urge those responsible for its
publication, and in particular, our beloved friends, Prof. Pritam Singh,
Mr. Vakil, ... Mr. M. U. Abasi, Mirza Niku, Mr. Ardeshir Khodadad, and
Haji Ahmad, to do their utmost that this Baha’i organ may increase in
volume, widen in scope, broaden in its outlook, improve in style and
general presentation, and reflect more extensively the activities of the
friends in India, Burma, and elsewhere. As a magazine that has been
established in the days of our departed Master, and been the recipient of
His special favours and blessings, it ought, and I have no doubt it will,
with your active support and under your constant and general supervision,
carry out the great plan it is destined to fulfill in this world.
With regard to Burma and its Baha’i activities, I trust you realise that
that province falls directly within the sphere of your activities, and
although a Central Council for all Burma is in the process of
establishment, that Council as well as all local Assemblies throughout
Burma will have to be under the protection, care and direction of the
All-India Spiritual Assembly.
I would indeed welcome regular, frequent and comprehensive reports from
the National Assembly on the various branches of its manifold activities,
and will spare no effort to contribute my humble share in consolidating
and extending the Teaching Campaign throughout that vast Dominion.
I would be pleased to receive the permanent postal and telegraphic address
of the Secretary of the National Assembly, and am confident that by the
grace of Baha’u’llah and under the guiding Hand of our beloved Master, we
shall all carry triumphantly the noble task entrusted to our charge to a
speedy and successful conclusion.

An Era of Unprecedented Activity
[From the Guardian:]
It is a great pleasure and privilege for me to renew the bonds of
fellowship and affection that have always united our hearts in the service
of our beloved Master. I need not recall to your minds the warm and
abiding place which that gifted Dominion has always occupied in our
Beloved’s heart, and the high hopes he cherished for its future
contribution towards the triumph of the Movement in those distant regions
of the earth.
