EXTRACT froru/letter from Lord Linlithgow to Lord Zetland
dated 11th February 1938.
20th December the matter of arrangements in connection with
the treaty negotiations with the Sultan of Muscat during
his visit to London. I have had a talk with Metcalfe
about the arrangements to be made for an officer with
expert knowledge to be available during the Party’s visit,
and I have now agreed that Watts should go home for the
visit, and that if Treaty negotiations are undertaken in
London Fowle should also go. as for the negotiations, we
have agreed with Fowle that informal enquiries should be
made from the Sultan, while he is in ^merica, as to whether
he wishes to discuss the Treaty or not during his visit;
and the question whether Fowle is to go on deputation or
not must of course depend on his reply.
16. You mentioned in paragraph 6 of your letter of the
pL
