Etessing.

Dear Grindle:-

April 28th, 1921.

Wellesley is at present away, so I have opened

your letter to him of yesterday. I may say at once that,

as far as the Foreign Office is concerned, there is no

objection to the presence at Geneva, in an unofficial

capacity, during the forthcoming sessions of the

Opium Advisory Committee of the League of Nations, of one

of your senior officials, for the purpose of supplying

information which may be required by the United Kingdom

representative.

Very likely you have already considered the

question of making known your views on this subject to

the Cabinet Offices, who, as we understand it, are now

the authority on the question of the League and

British representation etc., thereon.

Yours sincerely,

Vinterts Lanyon

I

G.E.A. Grindle, Esq.,C.B.,C.M.G.,
