NO UISTRTbUTIOH,
Cypher telegram to Mr. Knatchhull-Hugessen, (Tehran),,
Foreign Office, 30th December, 19S4 f 4„00
No,143,
Addressed to Tehran Nool45c
lour telegram hOo214 (of December 26th *-* Hen,jam) which
y° u W now repeat to Government of India and Bushire^ together
with my telegram to which it refers a
I presume that new Persian regulations involve only
inscription in some local list and numbering for identification
purposes of boats and launches actually based at Henjam, and do
not involve their registration in technical sense, i.eo as
x ^rsian vessels, or affect in any ’way right of craft concerned
to fly British flagc On this assumption, and in view of your
telegram Ho*213 (of December 26th) I agree that case does not
appear to have been'arranged with any deliberate intention to
challenge cur position at Henjams I hope therefore that you
may still be able in consultation with naval Ccmmander-in-Chief s
oo reacn some local settlement of matter as one of administrative
routine as suggested in your telegram Noc214*
2o Question of precedent is difficult as it has not been
possible to find any close parallel, but I understand from
Admiralty that until about 1904 (when new naval dispositions were
made) the Royal Navy maintained auxiliary depot ship (flying
White Ensign) at Coquimbo, which was based on the Chilean
coast but exempt from all local regulations., Precedents
connected with merchant shipping have been equally difficult to
find and are probably of less value* Po & a 0* Company are
believed to maintain launch at Yokohama which, though based on
Japanese port, flies British flag and may be exempt from local
regulations,
