The National Spiritual Assembly received a reply from R. Rabanni on behalf of Shoghi Effendi regarding the purchase of a site(s) for the Temple and the Haziratu'l-Quds:
"He considers the revised criteria you
sent him for the Temple and Haziratu'l-Quds,
as outlined in your letter of
December 15th, satisfactory.
He is extremely anxious to have these
properties purchased, either together in
one-place, or if this is not feasible, then
in two separate places, as he has already
informed you. Eight of the eleven
Temple sites have been purchased, and
many of them in very difficult places;
and he feels very strongly that it is
a great pity that Canada should be
behind-hand in this matter, in view of
the fact that she is one of the oldest
Bahá'í Communities in the world. No
doubt the problem is more difficult for
you to solve, owing to the special conditions
in Toronto and vicinity; but we
know that all problems are solvable for
the Bahá'ís, with the power of God to
help them; and he is eagerly awaiting
news of your success." [CBN No68 Sep 1955 p2]
He further clarified that while the Maxwell House was indeed a National Endowment it should not be considered as having fulfilled this objective of the Plan and a second one should be obtained. [MC2p222; CBN No 73 Feb 1956 p2]
