Dear tfirs f
have received the report on the Jaonomi©
conditions in the Persian Gulf, and we found this of
very great interest in view of the chapter on the
JPearl Industry.
je are al)out the "biggeit firm dealing in shells
of ill kinds and we are especially interested in the
import of Persian Grulf Lingah shells (Isold and medium)
Mussel shells which are also fished in the Persian Gulf
and MOP shells of large varieties whioh are known on the
4.
.uropean markets at "Jomhay shells", llie very small LingaJ
shell in not so interesting*
At the present time there are several firms
in Mmmburg who seem to have very good oonneotions at
the Gulf for the import of t hese shells whereas we have
not ueen nearly so well plaeed - this refer® more
especially to the Lingah shells; however as we are
estaLiished in all European ooantries and button eentres
having our speoial agents and stores wherever necessary
we should "be grateful if the Consul-General,lushire oould
put us in the way of securing a really good first class
and trustworthy connection in which case we could eonsume
large quantities*
Yours faithfully,
