◆ Pioneers registered with the draft, if they have not already done so, might do well to file with their local boards in support of their claim for exemption and ministerial classification allowed by the draft law and regulations, a photostatic copy of their pioneer appointment letter and, when they qualify therefor, a copy of Certificate for Pioneer Minister provided by the Society.

◆ After December 21 congregations may begin ordering the 1970 bound volumes of The Watchtower and Awake! They are available in English, Dutch, French, German, Portuguese and Spanish. Due to the limited demand for Hungarian bound volumes of The Watchtower, the Society will discontinue producing them beginning with the 1971 volumes. The 1970 Hungarian volume of The Watchtower will be available.
