The Department of Overseas Trade,

LONDON, S.W.l.
Dear Sirs,
BAHREIN ISLANDS.
We understand that there are considerable business
developments taking place in the Bahrein Islands at the present
time on account of the new Refinery being located there.
From previous experience in places like Curacao
where Refining is going on we have found that good outlets for
our own manufactures generally arise and we would be obliged if
you would give us any lists of reliable firms which you may
have in your possession and whom we can approach in connection
with their requirements in the way of Letterheadings, stationery
and general publicity work.
Yours faithfully,
per pro H^ADDIE & CO. LTD.

Export Manager.
