After coBiplifientSo
We have already aubeiltted y to you a letter on the
20th Jamadi II 1343 (l»th ? i^e. 25th January 1224) in
which you asked you whether you recognised us as the
official delegates of H o H 0 the Sultan of Najd at the
Kuwait Arab Conference, and you replied in a letter dated
the 25th January 1934 that you had nothing to add to what
you had said verbally, aanely that you were coETiiiunicating
with your Governnent on the subject,, We gather frota the
accepted, and consequently we do not consider it seejaly
for us to refiain in Kuwait when our official position is
in doubt. We have therefore decided to leave by the next
ateairer, the store so as the other delegations have all
left and there is no llkllhood of their return for a
considerable x jerlod, at the sane time we will be ready to
cone whenever it is desired to reopen the discussions.
Today H 0 E o Shaikh Ahnad al~Jabir infortsted us that you
wished to see Shaikh Hafidh, a nember of the Najd Delegation
As however he is a mefiiber of the Delegation whose official
position you are not satisfied with, we must request you
to kindly postpone seeing him until the position is made zM
cl ear*.
