Because of their ages they are unable to make this decision for themselves. As they grow up I hope they will do this. But as for now I do not know if I have the right to do this for them. When they do have the responsibility of an allowance, I realize that I can only set an example atid explain the Fund to them, but whether they contribute or not will be their decision.

Mr. William Pettit Tucson, Arizona April 5, 1974 A. Your practice of contributing to the Fund in the

names of your two children is. certainly acceptable and most welcome. The spiritual precedent you set will surely have a lasting effect on them as they grow older. You are most correct in pointingout, however, that when the children are old enough to have an allowance, you should discontinue contributing in their names and allow them to make the decision for themselves.

Q. Please excuse the small amount enclosed. Hard times are upon us. We know that the only way we can hope of easing the way is by our meager contribu- tions to the Fund so that all may learn of the soothing Message of Baha'u'lla'h. In prayer with yougor us, for all!

You need not excuse the size of your contribution, for it is the many small gifts of love such as yours which, like the drops of rain, combine to make a mighty torrent that can sweep away all the obstacles impeding the triumphant progress of the Cause of God today.

Dear Baha'i Friends: Each Bahi'i month the National Spiritual Assem-

'-'-- sends more than $21,000 to the Baha'i Interna- la1 Fund and the Continental Baha'i Fund. This is 3bligation which we have pledged to meet before

,,,riding money for any other item in our budget. The reason for giving priority to these Funds among all our expeditures is twofold: First, our country shares only with Persia the honor of being the major source of support for the Continental and Interna- tional Funds of the Faith; second, most other Na- tional Spiritual Assemblies in the world depend largely for the progress of their activities upon the support which they receive from The Universal House of Jgstice through the Baha'i International Fund.

Because this commitment takes precedence over all others, we are left in a rather difficult position. '- :n if we met our full contribution goal each Bahi'i

nth, we would have onlv $1 16.000 to smnd on entire range of diverse goals we must accom-

mass-media proclamation, the increase and strengthening of Local Spiritual Assemblies, and others too numerous to tally. In fact, our monthly average of contributions so f a r this year has been well below even this amount.

The National Spiritual Assembly is deeply con- cerned about this situation. The Universal House of Justice assured us several years ago that we do in- deed have the capacity to meet our financial goals, even without sacrifice, but that we must grow spiritually in order to do so. We ask that you devote a portion of your consultation at this Feast to the ques- tion of how we may bring about this spiritual growth in our National Community and that you share the fruits of your discussion with the Office of the Treasurer.

With warmest Baha'i love, NATIONAL SPIRITUAL ASSEMBLY OF

THE BAHA'~s OF THE UNITED STATES Dorothy W. Nelson, Treasurer
