570 of 31st July 1931 from His Britannic Majesty’s Ambassador
at Rome to the Foreign Office, enclosing letter No. 10/31
of 29th July from the British Naval Attache on the subject
of the two 950 ton ships which are being built for the
Persian Government.
2. It will be seen that the ships in question are
almost completed - one will be ready next October and the
other in November. It is most unlikely that the Italian
authorities would have proceeded thus far without having
received payment for construction and in fact arrangements
for this have apparently been made vide Minister, Tehran’s
despatch No. 67 of May 16th, 1931. After completion the
ships will of course have to undergo trials, be fitted with
armament, etc., and finally make the voyage to the Gulf.
This will take time, but I imagine not so very long and so
we may reasonably expect a Persian fleet - in the shape of
one or two ships - to materialize in the
