# To the Members of the German Section of the Theosophical Society

*For your information.*

*To the members of the German Section of the Theosophical Society.*

From the circulars that I recently sent to the chairpersons of the branches of the German Section, it can be seen that the election of the president must take place in May. It can be assumed that the members are now aware of the aforementioned circular.

I am now enclosing the ballot paper. I request that you write either “For Mrs. Besant” or “Not for Mrs. Besant” in the space marked “vote cast”. Please sign your name in the “signature” space. If you do not wish to add your name, you may omit it. I request that all members immediately return the completed ballot to the following address (in a sealed envelope):

Dr. Rudolf Steiner,  
private address of Countess Kalckreuth  
Munich  
Adalbertstr. 55.

(Please use this exact address). Those who do not wish to vote for or against Mrs. Besant can also return an unmarked ballot paper.

Ballots returned after May 23 cannot be considered valid.

With theosophical greetings,  
Dr. Rudolf Steiner  
General Secretary of the German Section of the Theosophical Society.
