Secretary, Political Dept.,
I agree that the real question is the
difficulty of obtaining the assent of the Treasury
to the grant of enlarged powers to the Government of
India. But in view of your marginal remark that
the references to this Office necessitated by the
existing restrictions are unfortunately not infrequent,
it would, I think, be worth while to makie an effort
to obtain their concurrence* Since these
restrictions were laid down the powers of sanction
accorded to the Government of India in the case of
^seSe^utre met entirely from Indian revenues have
been greatly extended, and apart from the necessity
of obtaining Treasury sanction there is presumably
no reason why the Government of India should not be
granted at least much higher powers of sanction in
Persia than they at present possess* To revert to
a suggestion made by Mr. Turner in his note of 18th
Dovember — it would be as well, would it not, before
pursuing the matter with the Government of India, to
find out unofficially from the Foreign Office whether
the Treasury would be prepared to agree to a»-
