B«nrRin,
Dear Sir,
W© enclose Herewith for favour of perusal a
letter, in original. No.15 dated the 5rd Janupry 1945,
from Messrs. Goode Durrant & Murray Ltd., Woodberry,
Hindhead, Surrey, addressed to us. In that letter they
ask us for some guidance as to the articles, with full
specifications, of goodsneededfor Bahrain from Kngland
after the war.
We intend replying to them in detail stating
quslities and enclosing certain specifications, such
as designs, etc<, of piecegoods that are most suitable
for this market. ^ H
in this connection we beg to invite a reference
to your letter No. 2975-10/7 of 50th December 1945, in which
you stated t hat labels only, instead of designs, could be^
registered as no legal provision exists for the registration
of trade marks etc. in Bahrain.
We beg to enquire whether it will now be possible
for you to havo any designs to be registered here. Any
such legaT measure, ir promulgated, will ooviate the chance
of their imitation by any other manufacturers in other parts
of the world. In addition, it will indirectly tend to
hold the British trade in piecegoods in this market and wiii
be a fillip to foster British trade for the future.
Prom our experience, we beg to point out that
Bahrain consumers, once they get used to a particular
design, always prefer it to any other design, however
superior in quality, manufactured by other countries©
We shall be grateful for a favourable reply.
' Y^urs faithfully.
Ends.- 1 letter in
