Secondly, we must deal with an- thorities capable to carry out their undertaking.

Thirdly, we must be assured that in-modifying our present rights we can secure protection for the lives of Britishers and their legitimate intereals,

He added "We can go far in such negotiations but it is impossible to concede to viótérre, whether mah violence or organised violence."
