Dear Laithwaite,
We are sending you
despatch No. 471 of September 23rd about the Persian claim
to Bahrein, and the recent press campaign in the Tehran
papers.
The press articles enclosed in Clive’s despatch
are evidently officially inspired, and I think you will
agree that they indicate the general lines of a very
K
detailed reply to our note of February 18th, 1929. We
should, I think, take advantage of this disclosure of the
Persian line of argument by getting somebody to work at
once on the historical arguments adduced. The Shafagh-i-
Sorkh of September 19th, for example, goes into the historical
aspect of the question in some detail and gives several
references to the works of Moslem historians. Do you think
that you can arrange to have all this looked into, either in
the
India Office
