Re “425 T” Annual Return 1937

A chara. I sent on your letter of 16th August to the Auditor who prepared the forms to be sent in, he did not send me any separate report, but he replied to say the man who was dealing with the Forms was away on holidays and he would have them attended to on his return.

I shall be seeing him during the coming week if possible and will write you then. I regret delay but owing to harvesting work it is difficult to get to Dublin at this time of year.

Mise le meas, Elizabeth F. Bobbett, General Secretary, IFF.
