30 November 1956 Dear Bahá’í Sister: Your loving letter of October 17th was duly received, and its contents presented to the Beloved Guardian. He has directed me to reply as follows: He feels it is more advisable for ... to remain in Budapest, where the Faith needs every help it can get, rather than go to either Austria or Germany.
