Dear Sir,
 A few months ago the Acting Colonial
Secretary for Trinidad was kind enough
to circulate Heads of Departments sug-
gesting that they might care to support
the appeal which we are making for
used Colonial and Foreign postage
stamps. His kindness has created a
constant source of income for research
into the causation and cure of Cancer,
which is the object of the Campaign.
 2. I am aware of the many duties and
responsibilities which you must have,
but I am wondering if you would care
to afford similar help. It would be
deeply valued by all connected with
the Campaign if you could see your
way clear to do so.
 3. At the same time I wish to find
some public-spirited and influential per-
son who would enlist the aid of such
organizations as banks, business houses,
chambers of commerce, hospitals, schools
etc. which might lhe prepared to holp
in the same way. In Trinidad the
Manager of the Agricultur;al Bank did
so and I am glad to say that we are re-
ceiving 100% supper trinm everyone
approached. In the past. 1 have written
direct to business Ilous(s in the Colo-
nies'with considerable though scattered
success, but what has happened in Tri-
nidad has led me to valne the approach
from someone on the spot. Could you
help here ?
 4. We like the stamps left on the
piper and( cut or torn from thle hur-
ronnding envelope--without danger to
t he perforations. H i h f:ac-value
stamllps from p;acels, air-mail oi regis-
tere I letters are not of particular value,
but even the lowest, and commonest
denominations are useful ind we do not
mind how many of a kind there are.
Great Britain stamps over 2/1d. face-
value are also welcome.

 Your very truly,

 W. J. ALPRESS,
 Ap1/'ards Secretary.
