From Political Agent, Bahrain.
To Political Resident, Kuwait
No. 160
V*.
Dated 13th October 1938. KJio
There is undesirable misapprehension hore about
Kuwait, and suggestion that His Majesty's Government have
actively supported Council in opposition to Shaikh for
their own ends.
2. Since there is beginning of agitation for "reform"
here (I am submitting report) it is most important to
dispel at once any possible suspicion that His Majesty's
Government "will be anti-Shaikh here as in Kuwait", I
propose therefore to tell Hjg Highness and family (from
whom it will filter down) true story of what has happened
in Kuwait. I know story down to end September but Would
be most grateful for brief gist of any later developments
by telegram.
