GREETINGS! --- dear Co-Worker Family,
called of Christ to be fellow-servants in God's work, as
Advance-Messengers, together, preparing the way before the
appearing in all Power and Glory of Christ the King, and His World
Tomorrow!
Mrs. Armstrong joins me in sending you, from half way
across the Atlantic ocean, grace and peace from God our Father, and
Jesus Christ our High Priest.
Once again we are on the high seas. The great work of
God is expanding in England and Europe by leaps and bounds. Our
elder son, Richard David (Dick), and Roderick Meredith, have been
in London and on the Continent since mid-June. Dick sent word that

can be properly set up there.
It has become necessary to open European headquarters
offices in London, and to begin publication of a European edition
of The PLAIN TRUTH. The subscription list in Britain and Europe is
already growing into the thousands. It has become impossible to
handle such a large mailing from Pasadena---too expensive---and
overseas readers have been one or two months late receiving their
magazines.
In order to comply with the laws and establish ourselves
so as to be permitted to carry on God's work from London head-
quarters, it was necessary that I, as president and managing
director of the work, appear personally in London to sign papers
and effect legal and official status for transacting business and
publishing the magazine. Also we felt it well that I hold short
series of meetings in at least two points, London, and either
Manchester or Birmingham.
I have MUCH to say to you---more than I'll have space for
in this letter. I am still speaking to you daily and weekly over
the air, thru the miracle of radio. Herman Hoeh will speak a few
times while I'm gone, but we have selected several of the most
important and interesting broadcasts I sent you from Pasadena last
fall and winter, all of which were recorded in our studios as they
went out on the air, and these will be re-broadcast while I'm in
Europe. Did you ever stop to think of the mechanical and
technological wonders of our time? Thru this mechanical means I
