To the Honorable Secretary of the Administrative Committee
Based on your order, I have ⟦illegible⟧ Doctor ⟦illegible⟧
regarding the reduction of examination and treatment fees, and he explained to me that he can
make a reduction regarding the examination fees only, specifically from
one dinar to half a dinar. As for the weekly treatment fees,
he cannot reduce them below two dinars per week.
Note that he is the one who determines who requires
weekly treatment or just an examination, and he prepares a list for that
at the end of the treatment. Accordingly, he has returned the previous list
and reduced it from 44.000 dinars to 24.500 dinars as we indicated
above, and added two new lists to it according to the prescriptions
kept and decided by him. The total of the three lists amounts to
81.750 dinars for the period from 4/20/58 to ⟦illegible⟧

After greetings,
My husband left me after his Iraqi citizenship was revoked ⟦illegible⟧
and he left me a daughter who is eight years old, and we remained ⟦illegible⟧ the poor ⟦illegible⟧
this period without a breadwinner, as I was separated from my work at the (Singer) company ⟦illegible⟧
years, and finally the Travel and Nationality Department revoked the citizenship of my daughter
according to the request of the Interior Department, which forced us to obtain a passport for twelve
remaining to travel with my child, and since we do not possess the travel fare or a part of it
as we are poor, and throughout this period we were working and struggling for a living and we
did not previously request any assistance from our respected community or any other party
despite our dire need for it. Therefore, we ask your Excellency to look with bitterness
at this ⟦illegible⟧ kindness and mercy and to kindly order giving us the fare ⟦illegible⟧
