With reference to Walton’s letter No. P-3.2997/32
of the 8th June 1932 regarding the proposal to give
consular status to the senior officials of the Imperial
and International Communications Company at Jask and
Charhar, I send you herewith a copy of a letter from the
Chancery of the Tehran Legation, from which you will see
that tentative and unofficial enquiries as to the
probable Persian reaction to an official request for
recognition have met with a discouraging response from
the Persian Ministry for Foreign Affairs.
2. The Chancery appear to be correct in saying that
the Persian Government are within their rights in refusing;
and we here should be inclined not to put in an official
request, but to content ourselves with arranging with the
Communications Company if possible that their officials at
Jask and Charbar should perform such duties as the
forwarding of passports, passport applications and passnort
