Baghdad, 11th BecembeA*, 1931,
My dear Parkinson,
Please refer to the enclosure to Colonial
Office despatch Secret A of Bovember 17th detailing
the points which the Italian Government might he
asked to bring to the notice of the Italian naval
officers entering the service of Persia*
I suggest for consideration, if it is not
too late, that the position obtaining in the 3hatt
al Arab might be added to the list. If, as I
understand, the Persian fleet is to be based on
Muhammerah, the ships will be frequently passing up
and doim the Shatt, and the question of the distinction
between the right of navigation and the right to
patrol, to which reference was made in paragraph 3 of
Young* s despatch Secret A of 11 ovember 12th, is almost
sure to arise sooner or later.
I have just seen a report that Persian
launches carrying armed police have been patrolling
in the Shatt al Arab recently and holding up ’Iraqi
river craft. I enquiring into this further, but
it suggests that the Persians may quite possibly
give instructions to their fleet whifch will c<-i,ise
difficulties in the Shatt al Arab if some precaution
is not taken. And they may try to prejudice tho
negotiations which we hope to start before long in
regard to the Conservancy Board Scheme.
Yours sincerely,
(Sgd.) P.H. Humphry»•
