Payment oT maintenance allov/ance to exiled iiuromani chiefs
is Iraqi Government s chief obiection to further detention of
these people in Iraq, Their view is that as Persian Government
have themselves allowed those Jafar Sultan's sons who were
■i *+/
formerly detained in Tehran and elsewhere to return to Auromani
there is no reason why Iraqi Government should any longer keep
the others under restraint in Iraq* I find this argument
difficult to answer and as Commander-in-chief sees no
obiection to return of these men I cannot urge that any British
interests are involved* Moreover the bogy man. Jafar Sultan,
is now dead and it cannot be supposed that if the two adult sons
who remain join their brothers m Auromani disaster will follow.
Persian Legation here constantly nag Iraqi Ministry of Foreign
Affairs with clumsy allegations against Auromanis and there will
be far less friction if they go home* I feel therefore that
our best course is to wash our hands of the whole business and
leave it to Iraqis and Persians to settle it amongst themselves*
