6. Mr. Elkington, the general manager, was at first apprehensive that the
local authorities would be uncertain how to act, and might in consequence fail
to suppress with sufficient energy any signs of agitation that appeared among
the workmen; but I trust that this danger will not arise for the present.

Enclosure in No. 1.
Mr. Hoare to Persian Minister for Foreign Affairs.
M. le Ministre, Tehran, December 2, 1932.
HIS Majesty's Government in the United Kingdom have taken cognisance
of the terms of the letter addressed by the Minister of Finance to the Resident
Director of the Anglo-Persian Oil Company on the 27th November (6th Azar,
1311). His Majesty's Government consider the action of the Persian Government
in cancelling the company's concession to be an inadmissible breach of its terms;
they take a most serious view of the conduct of the Persian Government and have
instructed me to demand the immediate withdrawal of the notification issued
to the company.
2. Furthermore, I am directed to state that while His Majesty's Government
still hope that the Persian Government will be at pains to reach an amicable
settlement in direct negotiation with the company. His Majesty's Government
will not hesitate, if the necessity arises, to take all legitimate measures to protect
their just and indisputable interests.
3. Finally, I have the honour to state that His Majesty's Government
will not tolerate any damage to the company's interests or interference with
their premises or business activities in Persia.
I avail, &c.
R. H. HOARE.
