To the Presidency of the Administrative Committee for Iraqi Jews in Baghdad, Respected.
Greetings.
Based on the resignation of the English kindergarten teacher
Mrs. (Eileen Margaret Al-Khalidi), we were forced to appoint Mrs.
Mary Brant to fill the vacancy with a monthly salary of (5/0) five dinars
including cost-of-living allowances. However, she requested that we do not bind her
to any contract as circumstances might force her to leave the school before the end of
the year. Accordingly, the school administration stipulated that she would not be granted
summer vacation salaries if she left the school before the end of the academic year.
The school administration has agreed to her terms because she possesses all the qualifications
of experience and knowledge in children's affairs for a period of fifteen years.
We kindly request approval for her appointment due to the unavailability of
an English teacher at the present time.
With high respect
Written with approval for her appointment
