Supplies Observation - for information
Copy of the Letter
Upon auditing the results of the annual laboratory inventory submitted to us at the end of the last school year, and auditing
their new requests for laboratory supplies sent with the aforementioned inventory results. And when comparing these results and requests
with the entries in the second copies of the laboratory records kept by us or with the release lists according to which
various schools were previously supplied. It appeared to us that these results were not reflective of the reality of these laboratories and that the requests
were improvised and not based on the result of a real inventory. It has become clear to us that most schools had previously been supplied
with large quantities of laboratory materials and equipment over multiple periods, greatly exceeding their needs. Such that these
quantities accumulated in them and remained stored in their laboratories without use. While the inventory results did not mention the existence of any quantity
of this surplus they have, or the surplus was not mentioned truthfully as it actually exists in the laboratory; on the contrary,
the new requests for schools were in large quantities and numbers, and some of them had been previously supplied and were actually in their possession. Perhaps
these requests, as we mentioned, were very many, and added to them are other requests for newly opened schools. Since various tools, quantities,
and types are not available for us to secure all of them from what is currently available in our laboratory warehouse in Baghdad. Therefore, we,
in the face of this urgent need and the shortage of what we have, have initiated a well-studied plan aimed at self-sufficiency from what
is available in the schools of the province itself, so that the needs of some schools in the province can be met from the surplus found in
other schools, by conducting immediate transfers between different schools in the same province and sometimes between one province and another
if necessary, then completing the remaining deficiencies from the laboratory warehouse if they are available in it.
In implementation of this plan, the laboratory inspector Mr. Jalal Nahal has been dispatched, accompanied by Mr. Farooq Faeq, Assistant Laboratory
Observer, and Mr. Saeed Abdul Wahab Nader, assigned to inspection, on an inspection tour to all provinces aimed at
visiting school laboratories to oversee their organization, care, and the extent of benefit from them in study and conducting experiments -
as well as to oversee the organization of laboratory records, the recording of release lists in them, ensuring the opening of a special file for the laboratory,
conducting the annual inventory at the end of last year, submitting new requests and auditing them against the actual stock in the laboratory,
as well as the extent of implementation of instructions and letters issued regarding laboratories, especially the procedures summarized therein regarding central
laboratories. In addition to that, the main focus of the inspectors will be on conducting immediate transfers between different schools
and implementing them under their supervision in cooperation with the teachers.
For the purpose of speeding up the implementation of this task, we request instructing school administrations to notify the teachers in charge of
school laboratories of the necessity of reconsidering their laboratories and emphasizing to them the need to complete the tasks listed below before
the inspector's arrival, in order to facilitate his mission and shorten the time this task takes.
1. Organizing the school laboratory, cleaning it, and arranging and coordinating materials and equipment in the cabinets.
2) Organizing a laboratory record and ensuring that all release lists are recorded in it.
3. Matching the record with the second copy in the secondary warehouse at the Directorate of Education.
4. Organizing the laboratory file according to our previous instructions.
5. Preparing a copy of the annual inventory lists completed at the end of last year to be presented to the inspector, as well as a copy of
the new requests submitted to us with the inventory to be presented to him as well.
6. Identifying and determining the type and quantity of the surplus actually present in the school laboratory of materials and equipment in chemistry,
physics, and biology, and recording that in a special detailed list. When estimating this, care should be taken to retain what ensures the
teacher's individual work for conducting experiments in intermediate schools, and what ensures the work of six groups of students in chemistry
and biology only in preparatory schools, and recording the rest as surplus (this principle will be observed in the new laboratory supplies schedule).
It is not permissible to keep more than the actual need based on the aforementioned basis merely for storage in the laboratory and keeping it
for coming years as some do, causing damage to tools and equipment and depriving other schools of them.

The Institute of Fine Arts has taken upon itself the service of the message of art in general and theatrical
art in particular. The Institute will present for the first time in the Republic of Iraq a full theatrical season
starting in December 1962 and ending in May 1963. This season contains
five international plays by Arab and Western writers, directed by professors of the Acting Department
at the Institute.
While we congratulate this artistic movement, we request school administrations to invite
our student sons to encourage the theater and the Institute's artistic season by watching the plays
it presents, noting that the Institute, as an encouragement to serve art and to help our student sons, has decided to make reductions
in the entry prices for female and male students by allowing the entry of two female or male students
with one ticket of the (150) fils category according to the following arrangement:
