so over a year ago, but as it is possible that they have no
capable of giving them expert advice as to the most suitable
^ition in which to anchor the buoys, we have given Bombay
puts authority to give then the services of a Company's
[ficer in case of need and at the request of the Hedjaz
^emment.
As mentioned above, the attitude of the Bahrein Grovernment is
kely to become unfriendly towards the Company if a steamer is
thed for mainland ports. ^e do not think that the Bahrein
emment is in a position to injure the Company's interests to
my extent and we hope on fuller realisation of the situation
hey will see that the Company have acted in the only way open
them in their capacity as transporters by sea.
We shall advise you of any further developments in this
wnnection.
