serious plan, which would shake the position ol* all
governments who are interested in the Gulf, and we are
sure also that as long as aversion continues to exist
between the Jinglish and the -Bolsheviks — and we have no
doubt that it will, in view of their discordant policies -
this new Kingdom will never come into existence. Therefore
we may rest assured that this idea, which occupies the
minds of the sages of imperialisn, shall have failure as
its lot, because it is inconsistent with the local ideas.
v@ write this by reason of what we have recently
read in the "Ath Thaghr" newspaper, by its correspondent
in Kuwait, who holds that our treatment of the Persian
Gulf question is false and fabricated. We write to say
that the news originated from an authentic source , which
is in full contact with the British statesmen, and that we
wrote our previous articles for nothing but serving the
eastern public interest and warning the eastern Governments
against the snares, which are being set for their destruction
also to point out that the idea of creating a Gulf Kingdom
is not the product of today, as this gentleman correspondent
(from Kuwait) thinks, but was initiated a long time ago,
and has passed through many stages since then*
