problems arising from conflicts of practice". As you know, because I have already written to you generally on this subject, the International Bar Association is very anxious indeed to ensure that it can give the maximum help to its Law Society and Bar Association members and to the profession in each country collectively and in dividually in their problems. The Committee which is considering the sub ject mentioned above is concerned primarily to see that at Conferences of the International Bar Association we consider subjects which are of practical interest and importance to the practising lawyers of the world. They therefore would very much like to know from your Association what you think could be discussed with a view to simplifying the work of the ordinary practising lawyer. If I may give one or two examples of the kind of subject which the Council have in mind, I would mention the reciprocal enforcement of kdgments, the proving of wills in foreign coun tries and the problems arising from marriage and divorce of foreign nationals. Probably the majority of practising lawyers in the course of their professional life are faced with the position where they have to take some action on behalf of a client in respect of a foreign country and anything that can be done to simplify their task in this respect the I.B.A. would like to achieve. Would you be kind enough to let us have your thoughts on the subjects which we might well ex plore sending your reply to Mr. W. A. Cook, the President of The Law Society of Scotland at 105 West George Street, Glasgow, C.2., Scotland, who has undertaken the task of analysing the replies and preparing a report for the Council at their next meeting in July, in conjunction with Mr. John Carrigan, Chairman of the Committee on Topics of the International Bar Association, of Glengarriff, Thurles, Co. Tipperary, Ireland. If at the same time you would be kind enough to send a copy of your letter to Mr. G. J. McMahon, the Secretary-General of the I.B.A. of 501 Fifth Avenue, New York 10017 this would be most helpful. All this please before the 1st May 1968. Yours very truly, Sir Thomas Lund Treasurer, The Law Society's Hall, Chancery Lane, London, W.C.2, England. law and of
