British Legation
1st May, 1936*
Tearan.
Sir,
¥ith reference to Chancery letter to the
Consular Department of March 9th last, I have the honour
to transmit, herewith, a translation of the reply which
I have now received from the Iranian Government to ray
enquiry as to whether nhey would have any objection to
the use of the tital ’His Majesty’s Consul-General for
Khorasan”.
It will be observed that the Iranian
Government insist that Colonel Daly's official title
must be that of His Majesty’s Consul-General at Meshed,
but that they agree to his area of jurisdiction covering
the whole province of Khurasan* It is evident from this
that unless you should Instruct me to take the matter up
further, it will be necessary to refer to Colonel Daly
as His Majesty’s Consul-General at Meshed in all future
correspondence with the Iranian Government and in that
case the question arises as wnether confusion would
not be caused by the retention of the designation
Consul-General for Khorasan in other forms of correspondence.
I have the honour to be with the highest respect,
Sir,
Your most obedient
humble servant
The Right Hosiourable
(Signed) H.M. Knatchbull—Hugeseen.
Sir John Simon, G.C.S.I.,
