Dear Laithwaite,
In conversation in London some weeks ago it
was suggested that I should enumerate some of the points
that; will require consideration if Aden is separated
from India. Those that occur to me are:-
1 . Tnoome-tas from firms doin t T bus iness at .Man
which at present is c ollected bv the Government of India
filaewhere than at Aden , e.g. at Calcutta or Bombay. There
are many such cases, the most important probably being the
Anglo-Persian Oil Company, which does a very large business
at Aden, but whose income-tax is paid, not at Aden, but at
Calcutta. In the event of separation it (and other firms
in the same position) ought to pay in respect of its Aden
business to the new Aden Government.
