Greetings,
With reference to your letter No. 1764 dated 8/30/1952, please note the following:-
1 - This presidency has previously approved the expenditure of an amount of (40) Dinars for the purpose of renovating some of the facilities of the mentioned school,
and the Directorate of Education of Hillah District deducted it from the first installment of this year as confirmed by its letter No. 8421/9 dated
11/20/1952.
2 - The renovations that may arise from the occupants of the building are carried out by the local board of directors in implementation of the third paragraph
of the contract, and the lessor party (the Presidency of the Community) only carries out sudden repairs in implementation of the fourth paragraph of the contract. What is meant
by sudden repairs - as agreed upon at the time with His Excellency the Director of Education of Hillah District - are repairs resulting from the nature of
the building, as is followed regarding the lease contracts of the community's schools with the Directorate of Education of Baghdad District.
3 - Accordingly, we see that the required renovations fall upon the leasing party to perform, and the presidency of this community is not obligated to them,
especially since it has carried out all the necessary renovations, the cost of which reached forty Dinars.
Please accept our highest respect.

It is necessary to open a special account in our books for this school since the community entered into this contract in its capacity

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.
