sume you do not wish us to comment in detail

rather on the possibility of slipping such an
addition into the proposed Air agreement at
this late stage. Shaikh Muhammad bin Saqr

at the same time we understand he is very
cautious on the subject of the ..ir Agreement:
however, we think there should be no difficulty
in getting t: e proposed addition accepted
provided it is fully and carefully explained
to him, and it is also made clear th t it is
not the sort of thing which will entitle him
to any extra payments.
