Your telegram No.13.
On January 18th I addressed letter accordingly
to M. Soheily.
On January 23rd Motamedy asked to see me and
expressed the hope that I was not intending to link
these two questions together. I replied that I had not
intended to make a direct bargain hut that they must
realise that we could not make all the concessions if
on their side they made no corresponding geste. I
said that I was quite prepared to deal separately with
the two matters hut in view of certain recent happenings
in particular the discourtesy of Persian government in
never replying to our proposals regarding ban on tribes
men (my telegram No. 167 to Government of India last
year gives last reference) and over Gorich Kalag much
doubted whether Government of India would in any case
be disposed to be accommodating.
Motamedy informed me that Babr and Palang would .be
leaving on January 27th and would reach Bombay on
February 5th. I am informing him that I am telegraphing
to you and Government of India and asking that
departure of vessels be delayed till I have your reply.
I should be grateful for Instructions urgently*
Addressed to Foreign Office telegram No.o5;
repeated to Government of India No.18, Bushire, Senior
Naval Office*? and Commander-in-Chief hast Indies.
