I am now in touch with the Russian organisationsbut find great ut.mil ling i.e. e names. 1 would suggestthat to overcome this we should keep cards on the mod-1
enclosed - one card to be kept by the Russian organisationwith the name of -he person on it and duly numbered. Duipi-cate card I could keep without the name but with all other particulars, which information you could also have un Geneva. If at any time action had to be taken we could always et the name from the Russian organisât'on. My Secretary and assistant in this matter Mr. feukviss i~ now making hea wa; with the work which is very considerable.

My dear Golden,
In reply to your letter o the 9th January
Frick is away and Johnson is ill so I am looking after the
work o. the High Commissariat te nporarlly.
Hagsian Hei npeea■ I juitc agree with what you say about the
cards; the same unwillingness to give names has been observed
in other places. The Foreign Office have sent in returns
from Malta and Serbia and .rom t is I gather that they now
realise that the census is to be taken in other places than
in England. Do try and hurry them up i ' this is in any way
possible.
Russian Famine I will call 'rick's attention to what yon say
about Webster* s reporte though I am not uite sure that I
know hat you arc referring to.
Yours sincerely,

My dear de Watteville,
It was with great pleasure I heard from you that you were proceeding to Geneva to take Frick's place with the League of Nations. What I should like to know is whether you are doing his work both for the Refugees and the Famine.
Our Allocations Department is answering your letter with regard to the balances you holçi in Berlin and Nuremburg, but I can tell you now that this money has been placed at your disposal to distribute to any hospitals that you think should be helped.
With regard to your three questions, in the world
with the best intentions
a) I have not got any distance in the enquiry about theRussian children in England.b) The same applies to the Russian refugees who, it seemsto me are not anxious to find work.o) I think with the time at my disposal to help you withregard to this matter, it is perfectly hopeless. I am getting out a report of what has been done up to the present and will let you have it in the course of three or four days, that is directly on my return from Brighton where I am going to have a few days rest.
Now that the "All British Appeal" has united the three Societies in England for effective work in Russia, I shall have absolutely no time to give to the refugee* question, so I shall be obliged if you will accept my resignation from the duties which I undertook last September in Geneva. Of course if there is anything I can do to help you, you may rely on me to do it.
With regard to the money disbursed for secretarial assistance, I will send ÿou an account which will not be very
With all good wishes,
Yours sincerely,
B. GOLDEN. General Secretary.

Dear Sir,
Mariy thanks for your letter of June 22nd, which was brought to the attention of our Allocations Committee on June 29th. together with the Minutes forwarded to us of the Meeting of the Advisory Committee of 6rgar.i sat ions for Russian Refugees of Me y 29th and Svth.
The Committee took into consideration the appeal of the advisor'- Committee to the High Commissioner to press the Union Internationale de Secours aux Enfants to continue its ..or1: for the children of Russian Refugees; and Lr Ksnsen^s desire to know in this connection, our own attitude to this problem.
I am instructed by the Committee to explain to you that our attitude is that of our central body, as, by agreement with the Union Internationale de Secours aux Enfants, all questions af enting the relief of Russian Refugees must be decided by them. The sole Fund in whose case an exception has been made in the Russian Relief and Reconstruction Fund (British) to which we have recently made a small grant.
■ .e r that, at present ti , our fi sial ■ | ■ n " rmit of our a I he le ’g
sums spent in the past for the relief of Russian refugee children.
Yours faithfully,
