The Honorable Mr. Eliya Abdah -
The General Baghdad Supply Stores in Basra.
Greetings.
The Schools Committee has considered your application submitted on June 11, 1961, to His Excellency the Chairman of the Administrative Committee, Mr. Salman Daniel, regarding the nomination of your son (Eliya Sabah) for higher studies in England at the expense of the Mosaic Community in Baghdad. After studying the subject, it reached the following:
1- Your request arrived late, as it had previously been decided to send a specific student from Baghdad to study at the expense of the community.
2- It is not possible to send more than one student from this year's graduates at the present time.
3- The Schools Committee and the Administrative Committee usually prefer to nominate scholarship students from our schools in Baghdad only, due to the availability of intensive study in Baghdad schools as required by scholarship conditions, especially since our students in Baghdad are prepared in their secondary studies and receive special preparation for higher studies abroad.
Accordingly, we regret to inform you that it is not possible to fulfill your request regarding sending your son on the scholarship. However, the Schools Committee has considered the possibility of assisting your son financially by allocating him an annual grant of (150/-) Dinars to be granted for a period of 4 years if the following conditions are met:
1- The Committee must be convinced of your son's success in this year's Baccalaureate exams with distinction, such that he excels over his peers from other deserving students in our schools in Baghdad.
2- The Committee must obtain an official document confirming that your son has been accepted into a recognized institute or university to study the subject he wishes to specialize in.
3- Upon request, your son must come to Baghdad for a personal interview. He must also provide us with a letter from his school testifying to his good conduct during his years of study.
Please accept our highest respect.
