I have the honour to refer to your telegram No.222
received on tae 22nd of April,
2. I attach a note on this subject which has been left
behind by Major R.P.Watts.
3. In order to maice the position a little clearer I
discussed this question with the Sultan on the 29th of
April and made the points enumerated in paragraph 2 of
your telegram under reference.
4. It appears that in 1935 the Sultan received a
communication from the Sheiidn of Ras-al-Khaimah suggesting
mutual co-operation in fortifying tne common boundary of
the Wadi A seasonal or intermittent watercourse, or the valley in which it flows. al Q,aur to prevent banditry. The Sultan replied
that as he was leaving for Dhofar he had no time to deal
with the question then but would go into the matter on
his return. I gather that the wali of Sohar's recent
communication was not inspired by the Sultan out was a
continuation of the negotiations which had oeen in
progress and was intended to indicate that such measures
as might be necessary would be ta^en on the Sultans
side of the frontier even if the SheiKh of Has-al-Khaimah
was not prepared to co-operate.
5. The Sultan made it clear tnat there was no danger
of a "clash" between his subjects and the Trucial Coast A name used by Britain from the nineteenth century to 1971 to refer to the present-day United Arab Emirates.
