Dated the 15th June 1934.
Correspondence ending with my telegram
K o »545 of 6th June.
With Loch 1 have now had opportunity of talking
with Arab in question who is one Yusuf Kanoo C»I.E. a friend
of oui's and local agent for A.P.O.C.
2. Policy of ignoring Shaikh of Qatar since my
last visit (except for iUA.P.reconnaissance and communication
regarding Blue Line) has so far been successful es Yusuf Kanoo
reports that Shaikh now appears anxious that Company's
representatives should visit ikaaa him. On the other hand
until Shaikh represses such desire in writing with some
general indication that he intends to abate his demands I
doubt vihether it would be of much use Company approaching
him again. If negotiations were re-opened only to fail once
again effect would be most unfortunate.
3. Shaikh has sent letter to A.P.O.C. Abadan and
when contents of this are known I shall be in better position
to give an opinion on line to be taken.
