1st April, 1933.
Dear Walton,
With reference to my letter of the
16th ultimo I enclose a copy of a despatch from
the Minister at Tehran on the subject of the
designation of British protected persons.
You will see that Hoare suggests that
further consideration of the question of the
description of protected persons other than Kurramis,
Kashmiris and Hyderabadis should be deferred until
after another pilgrim season is over. In the circumstances
we propose, if you agree, to confine ourselves to making
a communication to Hoare in the sense of the last
paragraph of the draft despatch discussed in my
letter under reference.
I am sending a similar letter to Vernon.
Yours sincerely.
. Walton, Esq., C.B. ,M.C.
