Downing Street,
Giugust, 1926.
I have spoken to Sir Samuel Wilson &bout
Nemazi and put your views before him. He retains the
opinion which he formed when the question wus

agreed to the Governor being told in & separate
despatch that the instructions which were issued to
his predecessor in 1924 are under consideration.

the matter to be taken up agɛin on Grindle's return.
The Colonial Office view is based on the
following considerations:
When the 1924 instructions were issued,
Nemuzi was admittedly shipping Persian opium to the
SIR M. DELEVINGNE, A.C.B.,
