Mr. Fowler.
Please see paper 9. I have spoken to Miss Waterlow
at the Foreign Office who would like us now to ask the High
Conmissioner to support this application with the Government
of F&kistan. You will see from paper 5 that the High Commiss
ioner has been somewhat reluctant to intervene in this matter,
but when this telegram was sent he was not aware of the contents
of our telegram No. 499. I attach a draft telegram; if y°u will
return it with any amendments you would like to make I will
clear it with Miss Waterlow before dispatch.
