23. Captain CROOKSHANKasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether he is aware of a condition laid down by the Emir Abdullah forbidding the employment of Jews on the Transjordan portion of the Iraq oil pipe-line; and in view of the terms of the mandate, what steps he proposes to take in the matter?
§ Sir P. CUNLIFFE-LISTERI am informed that the Amir Abdullah has laid down no such condition as is suggested in the first part of the question. The second part of the question does not, therefore, arise.
