23rd January 1935.
My dear Laithwaite,
Many thanks for your letter P.Z.159/35 of 11th
January.
2. We agree that it is unnecessary, after this
lapse of time and on the general principle that it is
undesirable to enter into detailed discussions about
Bahrain with the Persians if this can be avoided, for
the Legation to return any reply to Motamedi’s letter of
16th May,1934, to Trott about the treatment of Persians
in Bahrain. tfe are informing ftiatchbull-Hugessen
accordi ngly.
3 . I am sorry if I mistook the point upon which you
are awaiting the views of the Government of India and note
that it is a question of the treatment of Bahrainis in
Persia. We are, of course, hoping to hear from you
on this subject also in due course.
sd.Lacy Baggallay.
J,G.Laithwaite Esq.,CIZ
