last. Despatch goes by this mail. I approve proposals made in paragraphs
9-12 of your letter, on the understanding that Resident is satisfied that
scheme of paying Kotaibi tribes through Amir of Dthala will not occasion
fresh disputes, and that redistribution of posts is so arranged as to be
acceptable to tribes concerned. It is presumed that payment of increased
Haushabi stipend through Abdali Sultan and transfer to him of post at
Nobat Dakim, v ill cause no difficulty. Proposal that these arrangements
should be introduced before Political Officer finally leaves Dthala is approved
on understanding that he does not prolong his stay there for more than one
month after receipt bv hi rp of orders . This accords with Resident s letter
of 27th January last ‘in which' having before him question of increase of
stipends and redistribution of post^, he approved date suggested by Political
Officer for latter’s withdrawal, viz., 28th February. Jacob will of course
act in spirit of policy declared by His Majesty’s Government m adjusting
any difficulties that may arise.
Except on occasions of undoubted emergency, no action oi the kind
