o.00 p * m. 18 th F eh ruary 19 31.
My immediately preceding telegram.
Apart from one,modifications appear to he more or
less innocuous.
In connexion with three ; Minister raised question
of Jask royalty* I explained to Minister of Posts
that as convention of 1868 which mentioned royalty
would now presumably lapse,royalty v, r oi0.d also disappear.
I also hinted to Minister for Foreign Affairs as a
matter of course that question of royalty came under
mutual cancellation of debts. Both ministers appeared
^ to accept explanation and did not refer to the matter
further.
With regard to four I should be glad to learn
in what terms reference could be made to wireless
station. It would seem possible to insert sentence
regarding Importation of stores for maintenance so
long as we are in possession. I regret that I
forgot to remind Minister for Foreign Affairs about
question of submission of agreement to Majlis but
I will do so at once in writing.
Both ministers were friendly and appeared anxious
to avoid making difficulties.
Addressed to Foreign Office No. 20, repeated to
Government of India No. 25.
