to clear through customs, and may delay clearance of shipments.

**Essential.** It is possible to live off the land, but the following foods are considered essential to provide safe basic foods and not to deplete the local market of its better quality and rationed goods:

**Flour** - three or four months' supply at a time only to avoid spoilage: Most bread is made at home.

**Sugars** - much more than you use at home

Crisco or other cooking fat

**Oil** - salad and cooking

Coffee - regular and instant

Milk - canned and powdered

Cream - canned or Preak

Butter or oleo

Yeast - dry and of latest date

Baby food - none available, but plenty of kitchen help to strain fresh foods

Baking powder - single acting available locally

**Suggested.** These suggested foods have been found desirable to import either because they are not available locally, are seasonal, or add variety:

**Soups** - Local cooks make delicious soups, but soups such as cream of mushroom, celery, etc., are sometimes imported for variety.

**Vegetables** - Canned tomatoes, tomato paste and sauce, corn and asparagus are good items to bring. Green beans, beets, carrots, cauliflower, tomatoes, squash, eggplant, cabbage, potatoes, peas, onions, spinach, and celery are available in season.

**Meat** - There are no pork or pork products sold. Import ham, bacon, corned beef, frankfurters, sausages. Beef, mutton, chicken and other fowl are available.

**Fruits** - In season, the supply of fruits is excellent. Grapefruit, oranges, apples, tangerines, lemons, limes, papayas, mangoes, and pineapples are all available. Since the seasons are sometimes short, a small supply of canned fruits is suggested.

**Fish** - Fresh fish and seafood in Pakistan are delicious. Canned tuna-fish, salmon, anchovies, sardines, etc., if desired, must be imported. Don't import crab, shrimp and lobster for Karachi, Dacca and Comilla - fresh are excellent. In Lahore, Rawalpindi, and Peshawar, however, fresh or frozen seafood is difficult to get.

**Cheese** - Cheese is seldom available. Only cheeses that will keep, such as Kraft processed type in tin or glass, should be ordered.

**Spices** - ground pepper, herbs like basil and dried parsley not available

Syrup - maple and Karo

Vinegar - no vinegar available

Sauces - such as chili sauce, cranberry sauce, meat and fish sauce

Jam, jelly and preserves - available, but much sweeter and thicker than U.S. brands

Pickles and Olives

Popcorn

Peanut butter

Vanilla

10

Cinnamon - available, but difficult to grind
Baking chocolate, chocolate syrup, and cocoa

## Luxury

* Pimentos

* Mushrooms

* Cocktail snacks

* Candy and chewing gum - limited in supply and expensive

## Cigarettes and Liquor

English and Pakistani brands of cigarettes are available. They satisfy some American palates but not others. American cigarettes on the local market, when they are available, are about $5.00 per carton. Cigarettes may be shipped directly from the tobacco companies or export houses in the United States. Duty (about $3.40 per carton) must be paid on importations of cigarettes.

The liquor available on the local market is very expensive (about $11 per fifth) and the only type of whisky always available is Scotch. American Bourbon is available spasmodically. There is no rye. Local gin of fair quality is always available. Very high duties, approximately $85 per case of fifths, must be paid on importations of liquor. Although its initial cost is low when purchased abroad, imported whisky, after customs duty payment, is about as expensive as that available on the local market. In general, it would be best not to place and forward liquor orders prior to your arrival in Pakistan. Once here and better acquainted with the intricate customs rules and having surveyed the local supply and its cost, you can then decide on your needs and procurement preference.

## Household Supplies

Most of the following items are available in Karachi, Lahore, and Dacca but are limited in supply and variety and are expensive. Importation is therefore recommended.

### Essential

* Detergents - at least twice the amount used in the States

* Soaps

* Toilet paper

* Paper napkins - three sizes

* Waxed paper and/or aluminium foil

* Picnic supplies - thermos, ice chest, etc.

* Candles - no dripless locally

* Tools

* Flashlights

* Alarm clock - not electric

* Fly swatters

* Facial tissues

* Personal hygiene products

ARRIVAL PROCEDURES AND FOREIGN EXCHANGE

It is Foundation custom to have someone meet incoming families upon arrival in Pakistan and help them with the required arrival procedures. Be sure to cable ahead to the Foundation office giving date, flight number, and estimated time of arrival. This is particularly important if travel plans are changed or flights delayed enroute.

In order to get through the customs procedures as quickly as possible upon arrival, you should have the following handy:

1. Passports and valid visas covering all members of the family

2. International health certificates for all members of the family

3. Your address of permanent residence in Pakistan (if known)

4. A complete and detailed list, preferably a copy of the packer's list for insurance purposes, of all unaccompanied baggage to come by sea and air freight --- including the number of cartons in which it is packed.

Before leaving the airport make sure that you have filled out the following forms:

1. Form A - This is an important form. On it you must declare the

12

goods you expect to arrive later. If you have a detailed list, as specified in #4 above, which can be left with the authorities, you will save time and effort. If you do not know the number of trunks, cartons, boxes, etc., coming in your name, be sure to err on the liberal side. If you over-estimate, no harm is done. If you under-estimate, further special clearances may be necessary.

2. Currency Form - At the time of entry, each foreigner declares the amount of foreign currency, including traveller's checks, he is bringing into Pakistan on a form which he must show in order to leave Pakistan again. Pakistan currency which may be brought in is presently limited to Rs.80 per person and Bank of England notes to ten pounds. Other currencies (United States Dollars mainly) can be brought in under declaration without limit. Only Rs.20 may be taken out of the country. These regulations are subject to change. It is therefore advisable to check with your airline if you are bringing any significant amount of cash into Pakistan. All foreign currency listed on the above form must be accounted for on the same form in order to leave the country. That is, all financial transactions involving foreign exchange must be through an authorized dealer, who will record the exchange transaction on your form. It is contrary to foreign exchange regulations to sell (or buy) articles or Pakistan currency with foreign currency or a check drawn on a foreign bank except through an authorized dealer. All exchanges and transactions must be at the rates of exchange authorized by the State Bank.

IMPORT PROCEDURES

The Government of Pakistan has granted certain import privileges to foreign personnel and accompanying members of their families, brought to Pakistan on official business by The Ford Foundation or under grants made by The Ford Foundation. They are not required to pay customs and import duties and sales tax on first entry (valid for shipments leaving your home up to 60 days from the date of your departure for Pakistan) of personal, household, and professional effects, and cameras, arms and ammunition, radios, and other electrical equipment and mechanical apparatus brought in for personal use only. They are also exempt from payment of duty on Rs.700 worth of consumable stores on first entry. All articles must normally have been in the owner's possession and use (with the exception of the consumables and clothing) prior to their importation.

Imports of consumable products are limited to a total value of $1,200 per annum per family (regardless of its size). The amount of $1,200 includes the purchase prices only. Amounts not used do not carry over from year to year. Customs and import duties and sales tax must be paid on all imports of liquor and tobacco. They must also be paid on all other consumable stores over a C.I.F. (cost, insurance, freight) value of Rs.700 on first entry. All duties are charged on C.I.F. values. After first entry duties and taxes must be paid on all durable and consumable imports. Duties and sales tax average about 110% on food and household supplies, 250% on cigarettes, 12½% on most medicines, and 400%, or more, on alcohol and spirits.

## Lahore Cathedral is the Anglican Church

There are two Presbyterian churches which function primarily in Urdu and there is a Seventh Day Adventist Chapel.

There is also a Unitarian group which meets in homes.

## Medical Facilities

The United Christian Hospital in Lahore is an American Missionary Hospital which is well-equipped for most needs. It has competent American and European-trained doctors. There are two other hospitals in the city which are well regarded; both the Mayo Hospital and the Sir Ganga Ram are long-established in the city. There are a few medical specialists in such areas as Gynaecology, Pediatrics, Obstetrics and Surgery. There are a number of good Pakistani and British-trained doctors, and one or two dentists who are used frequently by the American community. Laboratory facilities and druggists are adequate. There are also reputable optical companies.

# RAWALPINDI

## General

Rawalpindi is a city of some 325,000 people situated in the northern part of West Pakistan about 165 miles from the Khyber Pass and the Afghanistan border. The city is about 1,400 feet above sea level and enjoys a varied climate. In the winter the daytime temperatures run from 35° to 50°, while the hottest months, June and July, have days of 115°. Partly because of its location, climate and surroundings, Rawalpindi has been selected as the site of the new national capital. Construction of the new capital, Islamabad, will begin within the next year on a large plateau adjacent to Rawalpindi.

Rawalpindi is on the Grand Trunk Road, a historic route of invading armies of the sub-continent. The city is bordered, at about 15 miles distance by the foothills of the Himalayas. Murree, which is one of the most popular summer hill stations in West Pakistan, is about a ninety-minute drive into the mountains. Health conditions in Rawalpindi are good compared with those of most cities in Pakistan. Houses and compounds are generally large and the area is adorned with many trees and beautiful flowers. Shopping facilities are good for a city of its size: however, it is difficult to find imported items on the local market.

There are several clubs, including Rotary Club, Masonic Lodge, and the Rawalpindi Social Club. There is an excellent 18-hole golf course, tennis courts, and a swimming pool. There are three theaters which show mostly European and American films. Taxila, a large and relatively well-preserved city, dating from 200 B.C., is one of the many historic sites within easy-driving distance.

## Schools

St. Mary's Cambridge School and Presentation Convent School are

20

two Catholic institutions, the former being for boys and the latter for girls. Most of the relatively few American children in Rawalpindi attend these schools which hold classes for grades 1 through 12. Because they operate on the Cambridge system, students above the fifth grade level sometimes find difficulty re-adjusting to the requirements of an American school.

The closest accredited school for American children is a Catholic institution in Murree, about 40 miles away. Some parents also send their children to Woodstock Boarding School, in Mussoorie, India (see p.18).

## Churches

There are two churches conducting services in English in Rawalpindi: the Anglican and the Community United Presbyterian. There is also a Catholic church for Mass and other services.

## Medical facilities

Rawalpindi has two good hospitals with modern facilities: the Holy Family Hospital and the Pakistan Army Hospital. Although Americans are not normally admitted to the Military Hospital, a highly-qualified group of army doctors cooperates with the Holy Family Hospital staff as the situation demands. There are three American-trained doctors at the Holy Family Hospital who provide most of the medical care for the American community. There are also several Pakistani doctors frequently used by American and European personnel. The Christian Hospital in Taxila, 17 miles away, specializes in eye diseases and has complete testing and operating facilities. Rawalpindi also has several good chemists and optical companies.

# PESHAWAR

## General

Peshawar is a rather quaint city of approximately 200,000 people lying about 40 miles south of the Afghanistan Frontier. It is located in a large cantonment area and is bordered on three sides by what is known as Tribal Territory. In addition to the Khyber Pass and Kohat Pass, there are many other historic sites within easy-driving distance.

Daytime temperatures in Peshawar from November through March range from 35° to 50°. During the months of June and July, daily temperatures may reach 115°, but nights are much cooler.

The local market is fairly good with meat, fruit, and vegetables plentiful most of the year. Peshawar lies in the fruit and vegetable-producing section of West Pakistan and the products are of good quality. There is a Rotary Club as well as the Peshawar Club for those interested. The Peshawar Club has a nice 18-hole golf course, hotel and other recreational facilities.

21

## Schools

St. Mary's Cambridge School and the Presentation Convent School offer classes from grades 1 through 12 for boys and girls respectively. Both these schools follow the Cambridge system of instruction and therefore present some problems for students re-adjusting to American schools. These are the only schools recommended by Americans living in Peshawar. American parents residing in the city feel that school facilities for children above the age of 12 years cannot be recommended, and boarding schools such as the one in Mussoorie, India, should be seriously considered (see p.18).

## Churches

There is a Catholic Church, an Anglican Church, and an American Air Force Chapel in the Peshawar area. Sunday school is held each Sunday at the Air Force Chapel and at the Catholic Church.

## Medical facilities

There is an England Mission Hospital in Peshawar which is under the supervision of two well-qualified British doctors. The hospital has relatively little equipment, however, and most Americans travel to Rawalpindi (125 miles away) in cases demanding more than routine medical treatment. There is also a Combined Military Hospital of the Pakistan Government in the city but permission must be obtained from the Government before foreigners and civilians can be admitted. Two good Pakistani doctors and one good Pakistani dentist are widely used by the American community for commonplace medical and dental care.

# DACCA

## General

East Pakistan is the humid region of Pakistan as well as of the sub-continent. The temperature and humidity begin to increase in March, until the monsoon breaks in June with heavy rain for four or five months. The heat and humidity make the latter months of the monsoon somewhat uncomfortable and oppressive. However, some qualifying words should be added about the trials of the Bengal climate. There is a mild sunny season of four months in winter cool enough in the evening to wear woolen clothes, and the monsoon months themselves are less hot than summer in Karachi, still less than in Lahore. In addition the humid climate brings the compensation of a rich green landscape, flowering like a garden for most months of the year.

Dacca is situated in the heart of the rivers and plains of East Pakistan, about 100 miles above the mouths of the Ganges. Its population, according to the last census, was 558,000 (1961).

Dacca's early history is centered about its role as the provincial capital of the Moghul who established the center of their government there in 1608. For the next 100 years it was the hub of political, cultural, and social life centering around the Moghul viceroyalty. By 1706, however,

23

occasionally attended by American children. A few parents send their older
children to boarding schools such as Woodstock in Mussoorie, India. (see p.18).

The school year begins in July, an important fact to remember when planning your date of arrival in Pakistan.

## Churches

There are several Catholic churches in Dacca as well as St. Thomas' Anglican church. The American Society holds inter-denominational protestant church services and Sunday school at the American School on Sunday mornings, and the Baptist Mission holds services on Sunday evenings.

## Medical facilities

Both the Holy Family Hospital and the Dacca Medical Hospital of Dacca University have good facilities. There are several American and British-trained general practitioners who are used widely by the American community as well as several Pakistani doctors who are very well regarded. Dacca also has American and British-trained dentists, good chemists, and one or two optical companies. It is best to bring prescriptions for glasses from home, however.

# COMILLA

## General

Comilla is located 105 miles north of Chittagong on the old delta flood plain which comprises most of East Pakistan. The land is only 30 feet above sea level.

From December through March the weather is dry and comfortable. A little heat is needed in the house at night. In April the weather gets warm. May is the hottest month sometimes going to over 100° in the afternoon. At night the temperature may remain above 90°. The months from June through September are the monsoon months. During this time it rains almost every day. Without air-conditioning, it is a rather uncomfortable place for most of the year.

Comilla is a small town with few facilities. It has a little movie house which shows American movies on Friday and Sunday mornings. It has one magazine store which sells *Life, Time, Newsweek* and The Reader's *Digest*. It has one foreign liquor store which sells Scotch at about $11 a fifth. There are many cloth stores, although buttons and zippers are unavailable. It has several good shoe stores for men and there are several general and grocery stores and dozens of drug stores --- several of them good.

Comilla citizens are known for their quiet life. Although it is a town of perhaps 50,000 population there is no hotel in Comilla nor a restaurant. One cannot purchase a washer to fix a faucet nor even buy a pipe wrench or a saw. These things must be purchased from Chittagong or Dacca.

24

To get to Comilla one takes the train from Dacca or Chittagong or drives from Chittagong. The trip from Dacca requires 4½ hours and the trains are good and run on time. There is no road to Dacca from Comilla. One gets around by bicycle rickshaw which is good and inexpensive transportation, or by private automobile. Housing is fair. Furnishings are available from local sources or from Dacca. The major problem is the lack of electricity to operate air-conditioners, but all other modern facilities are available. Probably the electricity problem will be solved early in 1962 when the Karnaphuli hydro-electric project begins operating. The Michigan State University project at Comilla is connected by telephone to Dacca and Chittagong and the rest of the world.

There is relatively little to do in Comilla for recreation. Swimming is available but considered unsafe by Americans. For those interested there are many Hindu temples in the area. Most people entertain by holding dinners in their homes, and relax by reading or listening to records.

Comilla is considered a hardship post for American women since few local women speak English and most are in purdah and remain at home. On the other hand, Comilla can be a rewarding assignment. Like every other place it has many fine people, and with effort, one can become friends in spite of language and cultural barriers.

## Schools

Our Lady of Fatima Convent School is a fairly good school which is operated by six Catholic nuns, who are well-trained and most cooperative. Teaching is in English and the British-Pakistani curriculum is used. The standard of the school is good, even though holidays occur very frequently. This is no fault of the school, but is a part of the Pakistan school system. The school goes through the tenth grade or Senior Cambridge, as it is called in Pakistan. Boarding school (see p.18), or supplementary self-directed study is recommended for high school students.

## Churches

Comilla has two Christian churches. Father Hicks conducts Catholic services regularly. Mr. McKinley, a Southern Baptist missionary, conducts English service on Sunday.

## Medical facilities

There are two hospitals in Comilla --- one a military hospital with British-trained military doctors. Americans use the services of several general practitioners in the city, but go to Dacca for other than routine medical treatment or emergencies. Most drugs are available but dentists, eye doctors and other specialists are found only in Dacca.

Checklist of Things To Do before leaving the
United States

1. Obtain passports and valid visas covering all members of the family (children may be included on their mother's passport).

2. Obtain international health cards for all members of the family, and make sure that all required vaccinations and inoculations are properly entered (see p. 2).

3. Make sure no consumables such as food, liquor, tobacco, paper products, cosmetics, drugs, etc., are packed in the same boxes with durable goods (see p. 13).

4. Obtain from your packer or draft yourself at least four copies of detailed lists of items shipped by both sea and air freight. This list should include the value of the items and the box numbers in which they were packed (see p. 13).

5. Send two copies of the list mentioned in #4 above to the Karachi office of The Ford Foundation (P.O.Box 7282). Keep at least one copy of the remaining lists for presentation upon arrival (see p.11).

Mr. Carlton Wood
The Ford Foundation
477 Madison Avenue
New York 22, New York

Dear Mr. Wood:

It was good news to us to hear that the Foundation had
informally accepted the modifications in the Ford-Harvard
Agreement. I have written to Dave Bell about the clause which
provides living accomodations, local transport, hospitaliza-
tion and insurance for the advisors and their families. I
think this can be easily dealt with by changing the wording
to read: "d. costs of furnished living accomodations, hos-
pitalization and insurance for the expert advisors and their
families in Pakistan and the cost of local transport for the
expert advisors while on official duty in Pakistan." Cars are
to be provided for private use.........."

I am enclosing a version of the budget for the new Agree-
ment which includes estimated commitments remaining under the
1954 Agreement and an increase to the same amount of the unex-
pended balance. I am also enclosing a breakdown of the
estimated commitments. This is, of course, a rough estimate
but I think it should do for your purpose, which, as I understand
it is to use these figures to provide the Foundation with a
close approximation of the size of the grant which is to be
proposed. We can't consider this budget as official until
after Dean Mason returns and can go over it with the Harvard
authorities. However, I anticipate that it will be accepted
as is.

I can't believe that things are going so smoothly but
am keeping my fingers crossed that none will come up with
a real stumbling-block.

I hope you have a nice vacation.
