below Pao on the left banlc of the river. After Mr. Baggallay
had given a short explanation of the position, as His Majesty f s
Grovernnent sav: it, under the 19^3 Protocol and the Proces
Verbaux and of the various methods v/hich had been advanced for
defining international frontiers where they passed through
territorial waters (none of which had, however, universal
international sanction), he said that so long as the Company
choose a boundary which left the whole Rooka Channel outside
their area he did not thine (subject to the question of
territorial waters already discussed) that His Majesty's
Government would wish to raise any objection to their fixing
one of their coordinates at the tip of j,lara-cat Abadan and from
there carrying their line out to sea more or less as a
prolongation of the final section of the left ban;: of the river
The Company's representatives agreed to avoid the Hool-ia Channel
completely.
10. Dr. Lees then asked what was the position as regar
the High Seas. Would it be possible for the Company, if they
wished to do so, to sink shafts in the High Seas, join them
together with buoys and ropes and claim exclusive rights within
the area thus enclosed ?
11. Mr. Baggallay said that it was considered to be
legally possible in certain circumstances to stake a claim to
the bed of the sea as opposed to its surface. The pearl
fishers in the Persian G-ulf might be said to have acquired
prescriptive rights to certain banks in the nigh Seas, and he
believed that some of the Cornish tin mines extended out to sea
beyond the three mile limit and that Mis Majesty's Government
claimed that the tin deposits which lay -under the sea outside
the three mile limit could be and had been appropriated. But
these were both examples of rights acquired as the result of
exclusive enjoyment and possession during a long period of time
