Statements [Continuation of the uprising to abolish the Provincial and District Councils Bill]

[In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful]

This law which is supposed to be implemented all over the country has been designed in Mr. `Alam's party and Mr. `Alam should know that the people will not give up unless the bill is nullified, nor will they keep silent after the resumption of the Parliament. They have censored the press and they say that there is `freedom'. They have banned meeting with the `ulama' of Shiraz. I have sent Ayatullah Mahallati Shirazi «2» a letter of greeting, but he has not received it. The foreign governments, even America, have records of our affairs. We will inform the world (of the state of affairs here). The government should better know its duty and not leave us at the mercy of a bunch of Jews disguised as Baha'is. We demand them to publish the news of the annulment of the bill in the newspapers just as they did for its ratification. We are still airing our opinions peacefully, but may God forbid the day when we tell the people they can do anything they find best. Let us hope, by the grace of God, that the administration perceives this and answers unambiguously.
