■ Tehran telegram No. 1285 and my telegram No. 11.05 ^ .
to Tehran [of October 7th and October 19th: proposal to
dissolve the Majlis],
Please explain position to State Department.
. 2. For your own information, what v/e wish is to keep them
informed and not to seek their prior concurrence in the
dissolution of the Majlis,
, Present Majlis, as State Department are no doubt aware#
is composed of nominees of the ex-Shah, but we are unable to
take che line that it was illegally elected for reasons ^iven
m paragraph 3 of my telegram under reference. Majlis has been
consistently unhelpful and obstructive for many months past,
and as long ago as last May United States Minister at Tehran
agreed with Sir R # Bullard and Soviet Ambassador that its
dissolution was desirable. Owing to difficulties explained in
my telegram, and the hope that the new Prime Minister might
be able to keep the Majlis in order, no action has hitherto been
taken, but it now appears that situation is likely to become
critical in the near future.
