5. The article as proposed in Article 14 of the original draft
was to the following effect:-
Les hautes parties contractantes sont d*accord que tout
diff^rend qui peut s*Clever entre elles quant A 1'interpretation ou
d 1 1 application des prescriptions du present traitd sera, d defaut
d*§tre r^solu par d’autres moyens, a la demande de 1‘une ou de
1'autre des deux parties soumis d 1*arbitrage.
6. The main difference between these two drafts is that the
British draft limits arbitration to differences arising out of the
present treaty while the Persian draft refers to differences of any
kind, although in neither case is anything laid down as to the
constitution of the Arbitral Tribunal.
7. In your telegram No. 65 in reply to my telegram above mention
ed you say that as regards arbitration your telegram No. 61 shows
the position.
8. But that refers to the position as it would be if Persia
signed the optional clause, which I regret to say it is quite
impossible to assume.
9. This being so, would His Majesty*s Government prefer to
have no arbitration article at all or at most one limited to
differences arising out of the present treaty, or would they be
prepared to include an arbitration article as now proposed by
the Minister of Court or an article limited to differences
arising out of the general treaty and the commercial treaty?
I have, etc.
(Signed) R. H. Clive
