Sir,
With reference to your letter P 237^ of July 20th last,
respecting the grant of travelling passes to Bahreinis, I am
directed "by Secretary Sir Austen -Chaiiiberlain to transmit to
you herewith a copy of a despatch from His Kajesty 1 s Charge
d 1 Affaires at Tehran from which it will "be observed that
Mr. Hicolson proposes tacitly to accept the present position
under which Bahreinis travelling from one Persian por^ to
another or to Bahrein are expected to take out an '•Ilm-o^
Khabar", while Persian nationals travelling to Banrein a
not provided with Persian passports. Mr. Jicoleon al~o
■oroposes energetically to protest against the confiscaoion
by the Persian authorities of any British passports or
certificates of identity granted to Bahreinis travelling
from Bahrein to Persian territory.
2. With regard to the certificates of identity referred to,
I am to invite attention to the despatch No. 34/2026 of Hay
20th last from His lilajesty's Consul General at Bushl re to His
Majesty^ T-Iinister at Tehran, a copy of which was enclosed
in the letter from this Department "To. T 8352/235/378 of
July 9th, from which it will be seen that these certificates
are issued in Bahrein or Iraq, and that the holders' claim to
their possession is open to doubt. In tnese circunibtancv.£
it is felt that it would be impolitic to protest against
the confiscation of such documents by the Persian authority:--.
As on the other hand it is impossible to acquiesce in the
regular seixure of any class of British documents by a
foreign authority, the best solution would seem to be to put
an end to their issue.
