Burhop writes, "A French friend of mine, who is related by marriage to Mr. Howard Samuel, one of the people to whom you wrote asking for support for the international meeting, recently suggested to me that a personal approach to Mr. Samuel might help. Accordingly I called on him during last week and he agreed to make a donation of £100 and he wrote out the enclosed cheque for this amount. I wonder whether you would be good enough to send him a note of acknowledgement and thanks? I have taken the liberty to drafting something that might be suitable."

Burhop believes they should declare soon for Pugwash.
