Dear Boyse,
3 0 DEC 1933
May I refer to my letter of 6th December
in reply to yours of 21st October No.75176/38 on the
subject of banking legislation. We received on the
following day the Secretary of State's official despatch
of 25th November which makes certain references to the
Palestine Ordinance. No copy of the Ordinance was,
however, enclosed and we should be grateful if copies
could be sent as early as possible. If they can be
spared we should find half a dozen copies useful.

We were also a little puzzled by a passage
in the third paragraph on page 5 of the Memorandum
enclosed with the Secretary of State's despatch. It is
a passage reading "accumulating interest is not of
course essentially money of this kind simply looking
for the most favourable rate for the moment". Judging
by the context it would seem that the sense is something
like" accumulating interest is not of course the object
of money of this kind which is essentially money
looking for the most favourable rate of the moment".
Would you let me know if this emendation is correct.
Yours sincerely
S. Came
