Dear Swire,

The questions in your letter of

February 4th fall outside the scope of the

indeed Foreign Office. They seem to be questions

on which you should consult your own

lawyers and it is doubtful whether any

Government Department can properly

express an opinion about them.

In so far

as any Government Department can do so,

the matter seems to be one for the Trading

with the Enemy Branch. I have spoken to

the Controller and by arrangement with

him I am sending a copy of your letter

to the Branch,who, if they feel that they

can properly assist, will get into touch

with you direct.

Yours sincerely,

NOTHING TO

BE

WRITTEN

IN

THIS

MARGIN.
