** telegram dated the
25th Decembor,, 1295 0 Begins,, Itwould appear that as matters
stand, we shall go to the Conference definitely committed to
accept the principle of the exclusion of Persian control of
light# in Persian waters, and Conference will merely be concerned
with the wording out of details
Conference on this basis would seem open to serious
objections, and Ward*? proposals, while possessing drawbacks
mentioned in your 3354-S of the 13th November to the Secretary
of State, would appear to be preferable and give us, at any
rat8 y some measure of control for the time being.
If before Conference was agreed to c Ward’s
proposals were put forward as basis of dissuasion, it would
leave Conference mors open, and it might be possible at
Conference to modify them sc as to mitigate to eome extern:
drawbacks referred to in preceding paragraph.
I suggest that Senior Naval Officer should be one
cf the British representatives. Mchammerah would seem suitabx*
place and convenient for him and for Ward , while Anglo. Pe r si x -
Oil Company, { ? who have) most important shipping interesv®
in the Gulf , could be readily consulted if nscessaiyo X could
also get there easily if W presence was desired in connection
