No. 3 OF

London. IS.C.4.
24th ^ay 1925,
Sir,
Referring to Mr, Janson^s Interview with Mr.
Vernon to-day, I am instructed to say that this Syndicate
would raise no objection to the cancellation by the Sultan
Ibn Baud of the undertaking given "by our reureeentative in
Iraq not to sell the whole or any part of the Fasa
Concession to the Anglo-Pereian Oil Company Limited,
orovided it is made clear in any instructions sent to the
s
British Resident that the request for such cancellation
does not emanate from this Syndicate, as it is probable
that the Sultan would regard our initiative in such matter
as a breach of faith.
I am to enclose you, in confidence, copy of the
cable received from "ajor Holmes to-day, which Mr. Janson
showed to Mr. Vernon, and to point out that the
suggestions that this Syndicate has any intention of selling
to a foreign company, or that the undertaking referrinr to
the exclusion of the Anglo-Persian Company was suggested by
our representative, are quite unfounded, and we venture to
emphasise our right as a purely English Company, whose
intention is to work jointly with the Anglo-Persian Company
Limited if the undertaking given to the Sultan is cancelled,
to the support of the Colonial Office.
I am, etc.
for Eastern and General Syndicate Limited
(Signed) H.T. Adams
Secretary
