Coramunications of wireless arrangemente in the Gul-f, but that
in the circumstances described above it would be best^
any rate for the present responsibility for operating the
Shargah station should rest with Imperial Airways, the
question of the transfer of responsibility to the
Communications Company being reserved for consideration if at
some future date receipts became sufficiently substantial to
make it possible for the Communications Company to take over
the station without the assistance of a Government subsidy;
and finally, that while Airways, in these circumstances,
should operate the station, it would be desirable that the
concession to be granted by the bheikh tor its maintenance
should be granted to His Majesty’s Government, Airways being
appointed by His Majesty’s Government as their Agent. If
this view is accepted by next Tuesday’s meeting we will write
to the Government of India as regards the notification of
the station to Berne and will also arrange for the despatch
of the necessary instructions to the Gulf as to the reply to
be made to the Sheikh of Shargah’s protest and the
concession to be obtained from him for the retention of a
public station*
On a connected point you were good enough to say
