Thank you for your letter of said September
1925; at present I can see no reason why all the
requirements of Sir Arnold Wilson for the transport
of the A»F»0»C # Geologist should not be met. Owing
to the ample notice given it will be possible to
work these trips in with the ordinary course of
patrol work so that it will not actually involve a
ship being sent specially for the duty,^ the one
exception being that to the Gulf of Masiralu If this
visit could be undertaken during the passage from
Dhofar to Muscat, that is with His Highness the
Sultan of Muscat on board J he presumably would not
object to delay of say Itv^ays) then this trip also
would not incur any extra expense in fuel etc, to
the Indian Government#
