INDIA OFi'ICS
P.z. 159/35.
LONDON, 3. W. 1.
11th January 1935.
Would you please refer to your letter of 5th
January to Crombie, No.E.5175/2369/91, about the treatment
of Persians in Bahrein?
2. I fear that we have not made it clear that it is
on the wider question of the Bahreinis in Persia that we
are awaiting the Government of India's views in the light
of their further consultation with Fowl© (see my letter to
you of 19th October, P.Z.5678/34). As regards Motamedi’s
note of 15th May last about Persians in Bahrein, we are
inclined, on the whole now*, to think that unless the
Foreign Office see objection, the best plan would be to
return no reply to the Persians unless they revert to the
matter both in view of the lapse of time and on the ground
suggested by Loch in his letter of 17th July to Tehran
