Subject - The first installment of the rent for the Saleh Sassoon Daniel School

<del>and the</del> to receive the first installment of the rent for the Saleh Sassoon Daniel School in Hillah leased to the Directorate of

herewith)
⟦line⟧
... | 95 | The remainder of the rent received by check No. 31997 dated 11/20/51
on the Rafidain Bank in Hillah
Note ⟦line⟧
It is necessary to open a special account in our books for this school since the community entered into this contract in its capacity
as the agent for the Alliance Society in Paris, and it is mandatory that the rent amount remains independent.
Secretary ⟦Signature⟧
1- Since the amounts spent were necessary for the school to enable it to
occupy it, I see no objection to the disbursement of the
spent amounts; however, I prefer that a letter be written to their director
stating that these expenses should not be repeated in the future,
especially since we are agents before our growth regarding the subject of spending
and its amount.
2- I support your last note regarding the necessity of opening a special account
in our books and keeping this amount independent at the
present time.
