My telegram No.90.
Yasin yesterday said that after glancing
through aratt regulations just received he personally
considered them satisfactory but could not give definite
opinion until authorities concerned had been consulted.
said there would appear to be no provision
for checking smuggling from Kuwait via Iraq. Manifests
would not be required for traders proceeding to Iraq.

autumn (? fullstop) In conversation with him he alleged
increase of &
great/smuggling.

expect to meet Yasin again July 16th before he leaves for
Riyadh when I propose to refer to point again. May I
inform him that smuggling over Saudi-Iraq Frontier is no

concern of Kuwait Government ?
