me Sultan, s practice of late years has been to
spend a few months of the cold weather in Hasa. W e
think that a visit to Hofuf next autumn might he suggested.
If he agrees* the visit would he a comparatively
simple matter. During the visit it would be convenient i
to expatiate on the ease with which he could he visited in
Riyadh. Even if an invitation to proceed there does not
follow, uhe iaet that the suggestion was made will not be
lost on him.
Should he refuse to receive a Mission in Hasa,
i- could he suggested to him that perhaps it would he more
convenient for him to receive the visit in Riyadh or else-
-where in the interior 2
It is quite possible that the Buitan, who has
heard by now of Shaikh Hamad of Bahrain*s flight in a plana
may agree to the proposed visit to Hasa, and that after
the Flight’s arrival there he may extend his invitation
and even accept the offer of a passage to Riyadh.
I agree that most beneficial results should
follow from such & visit.
With regard to the proposed composition of the
Mission, I think that one senior Political Officer should
suffice. It is not siery material whether he belongs to
Iraq or the Gulf, though before starting he should have
Interviews with the heads of both Administrations.
