- Title:
- Aden Policy
- Scope & Content:
-
The file consists of two notes by members of the Council of India, William Lee-Warner and Hugh Shakespear Barnes, on the Government of India's Letter No 119 dated 9 August 1906 (L/PS/10/74: Pol No 1455/06), concerning policy in Aden.
William Lee-Warner's note opposes the Government of India's policy and discusses the following: the effect of the policy on troop numbers at Aden, increased political interference in the hinterland, and whether a garrison at D'thala [Aḑ Ḑāli‘] is needed, or the extension of railways desirable. A table is included providing sickness and mortality statistics among troops stationed at Aden, 1897-1904.
Hugh Shakespear Barnes agrees with the Government of India's policy and states his views on the circumstances and effect of demarcation, the various methods of dealing with the tribes, railway extensions, and keeping a Political Officer and troops at D'thala.
