Sir, Foreign Office, December 15, 1932.
I AM directed by His Majesty's Principal Secretary of State for Foreign
Affairs to confirm the telegram which was addressed to you on the 14th December
by the Permanent Under-Secretary of State and which ran as follows :—
"A dispute having arisen between His Majesty's Government in the
United Kingdom and the Imperial Government of Persia in consequence of
the Persian Government's action in purporting to cancel the concession held
by the Anglo-Persian Oil Company, a British company, and His Majesty's
Government being of opinion that this dispute is likely to lead to a rupture,
I have the honour to request, under instructions from His Majesty's Govern
ment, that the matter may be submitted to the Council of the League of
Nations in accordance with the terms of article 15 of the Covenant of the
League.
" A statement of the case of His Majesty's Government will be communi
cated to you at the earliest possible moment, and His ^Majesty's Government
hope that the Council may find it possible to deal with the matter on the 19th
or 20th December."
2. Three copies of the statement of the case of His Majesty's Government
are to-day being forwarded to the United Kingdom delegation at Geneva, who are
being instructed to deliver these documents to you immediately.
I am, &c.
G. W. EENDEL.
