In accordance with a decision taken at the meeting held in New York these remittances
have been placed in a special Suspense Account and a mere acknowledgement of the
remittance has been dispatched from this office stating that the information has been
communicated to the Secretary-General of the League in Geneva who will communicate
with the payer direct.
I am not certain that the Secretarx-General has been informed of the reeipt of all
three of these remittances and I leave to you to take whatever action you think
desirable.
Sincerely yours,

Extract from lettre N°.T.1895.N°179, dated London, January 6th, 1944, received 18th Feb.1944.
I have just heard from Watterson in reply to my letter of October 27th that he has advised
each of the depositors that the amounts which they deposited in the bank can be drawn out by
them if the depositors wish, and that he has instructed the bank that if these depositors
claim back the sums they have paid in, this may be permitted.
S.Jacklin signed.
