At Jidda, returned via Budeya, very strong wind, got soaked to the skin - found when I returned that Miss
Carell was arriving, asked TTs to dinner to meet her failing to get Jackson, went to the pier where I found
$
Pelly & Jackson meeting a Mrs Searle, wife of a political, so I had them all to dinner - 7. Quite a good party
though Roselle seemed rather sticky & didnt talk much. Fortunately they left fairly early.

W Police Station discussing theft at the Agency.

Had a pearl merchants to a party on the lawn to meet Murray & Alexander. Went off quite well but I dont
think we can do what they want which is a very big campaign over several years advertising pearls to the
7 cost of hundreds of thousands of pounds.
