4*28. Seyyid Lai Shah Bukhari, M.A., who succeeds the Khan Bahadur
Ihsanullah, M.B.E., as Indian vice-consul, arrived at Jedda on the 25th October.
429. The new Indian medical officer, Dr. Mirza Ghulam Rasul, M.B. r
D.F.H., arrived by the same boat. Dr. Abdul Hamid, his predecessor, left for
Bombay by the same steamer on its return journey.
430. * Dr. Rasul has obtained from the Saudi Arabian Government a licence
to practise only in his two dispensaries, at Jedda and at Mecca. The question
whether a fresh attempt should be made to obtain from the local authorities a
licence to have a private practice at Jedda is under consideration. At present
Dr. Rasul is actually treating private patients in Jedda who request his services,
in the same manner as Dr. Abdul Hamid used to do; so far no difficulties have
been encountered. It is understood that the new Italian doctor, Dr. Ghersi, has
a licence for his dispensary only, and that he has applied, hitherto without success,
for a licence to practise privately, although the Soviet Legation doctor has a
licence for private practice.
431. The steamship
agency
An office of the East India Company and, later, of the British Raj, headed by an agent.
of the German “ Hansa " line has been
transferred from the firm of Fadhl Arab to that of Alireza.
432. A new broadcasting service, in Arabic, from Jerusalem was started
on the 17th September; it is called the “ London-Jerusalem Direct News
Service.” The Kaimakam of Jedda says that he listens to it occasionally, and
thinks it is quite good. On being questioned as to the suitability of the particular
form of Arabic used, he replied that the language of the announcer was excellent.

About this item
- Content
This file consists almost entirely of copies (forwarded by the Under-Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs to the Under-Secretary of State for India) of printed reports sent either by the His Majesty's Minister at Jedda (Sir Andrew Ryan, succeeded by Sir Reader William Bullard), or, in the Minister's absence, by His Majesty's Chargé d’Affaires (Cecil Gervase Hope Gill, succeeded by Albert Spencer Calvert), to the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs. Most of the reports cover a two-month period and are prefaced by a table of contents. The reports discuss a number of matters relating to the Kingdom of the Hejaz and Nejd (later Saudi Arabia), including internal affairs, frontier questions, foreign relations, the Hajj, and slavery.
The file includes a divider, which gives a list of correspondence references contained in the file by year. This is placed at the back of the correspondence.
