2. The letter received from the Ruler of Abu Dhabi wasenclosed with my letter 1/24 of 2 November. As reported inIan Boag's letter ol 9 November to me, the Dubai letter onExchange Control is addressed to the Political Agent ratherthan the Political Resident. We agree with him that thisdoes not matter.
