I have to acknowledge the receipt of your two
letters, Hoc. Iib9 ana 1189, about the Bahrain concession,
Daly tells me that Jackie not only pressed Hainad
to visit the oil-fields but also discussed the draft concess-
-ion with him. lie thinks it was a mistake to do this.
I am not sure that I agree with him.
On the oUier hand, 1 rather think that when rhaikh
Hamad sees the wonderful organization and magnitude of your
lialdan-l-Haftun settlement he will more and more feel that it
infki u.
must be a Government concern am that if a eimllar.ie intro-
-duced into Bahrain his own authority and prestige will be
proportionately diminished.
1 hear from More that "Kaji Abdullah" heard in
Kuwait that the Shaikh had been advised to suspend all ne^ot-
•l&tions until March n# Don*t you think that this may be due
to Holmes letting the haikhs know thac he was geoting his
liberty to negotiate from the 1st April ?
I wonder if the Eastern and General^Syndicate's
inactivity on the mainland has not been simply due to doubts
as to the outcome of Bin Spud's enterprise towards the west,
and the possibility of his getting to loggerheads with His
majesty's Government. It is, of course, also possible that
the p-eologist^s' preliminary report has been the reverse of
