Dear Department,

On receipt of your letter E 2962/1402/91

of April lst, 1949 we again took up with the

Ministry for Foreign Affairs the question of

the Norwegian contribution to the cost of

maintenance of the Red Sea Lights.

We have now at last had a reply which

states however that the Norwegian Government

cannot, for reasons of principle, change its

former attitude.

Yours ever,

CHANC ERY.
