Ke h-^ve examined the Kevember reports for
nnd find the following:
Palestine
1 - On sheet #7 under the he-ding of "Loans tc In-Jividu-^s", there
is sn item listed as "Amounts Unrecoverable — to the Ircn Workshop,
Sharre, Tors, Jaffa, 415." It"would be well in this c?e •s.h^re you
have the definite information th> t this lo'tn is unrecoverable toput
it under s. rerrective General Relief tev-'in.~. In this a-.rti3ular
of.se, if you agree'; it might be *?ell to put t i? iten I.rs ith "Horksh&ps."

2 - On sheet f7 "Amounts in Suspense," there is »n item listed there,
"Mr. Janovsky, Jaffa, or, rsicunt of Transfer Expense? -from Tiberiss,
fee ?5."
We wi.ll appreciate it if you Kill give us additional inform 1 :ticn

5 - In the- October rt;ort on ehc t *'J in the Tiberias column, the 'T.ount
on hand as of September 20 is fe* 9.h?5, while in the Novr.^h: r statement
this amount is listed unctr Disbursements • nd Expenditures HF a debit
••it the beginning of the month. This is net cPite clear.
4 - On r r ;ge ? '"'5 line .14, there i? listed tr\ item of i=e4 under n Dy{sascus w
without '.ay -details on sheet ?6 under the heading of "Relief of Persons
5 - The sarne applies tc item !i?\ on t-ige 5 under 55"tion f fce 5.
6 - In polusm 16 under "Refunds, etc." line »5 from Tiberias Officd,
on Recount of ct ?h balance at the end of September '3f0, there is listed
an amount of Le TOO. This we do net -uite understand because in your
October statement under Tiberias, you list fce 9.895';
rron; the t^c report?- on htnd, these of October 'nd November it
is evident th< t the?e nx not strictly reports of Gush Receipt? • nd 0-sh
Disbursements, end ae, therefore, think it v-ould be best if in the future
you would restrict yourself entirely in these reports to O&sh transactions
only, so^th t eny bal&ncea t! t you may report v-17 be only such balances .<
as can be supported by actual bank statements •ad amounts on h«^nd.

first place the true financial £t- tus cf the Palestine Office, -.rid slso
the true financial activities of the particular bills involved, it id
slmoet essential that you submit in ;:d J ition '-•• E't terpen t which «culc be >.
