he indicated various alternative possibilities. I
refused to volunteer an opinion in regard to candidates
for the post of Director General, but advised Kis llajesty
very strongly against the appointment of his brother
Prince aodul neza as titular Director General (see my
letter to right G52/73/49 of r.pril 19tn). I said
uhat no ^ood could possioly cone of such a divorce of
power from responsxDility, but I hoped that his highness
would continue to supervise the Plan as hitherto in an
Honorary capacity. The Shah seemed to agree and, after
some further discussion, to be in favour of appointing
Li. faghi hasr as Director General. He several times
expressed conviction that the plan could not be launched
'without foreign aid of some hind, and said quite openly
that Hbtchai had been sadly mistaken in thinning other-
..ise. But he recognised that without Eptehaj's full
co-operation the Plan could not be a success, and he
hoped to be able to reconcile him to the appointment
of h. Taghi Kasr.
5. The 3hah said that he looked forward to seeing
bir william Fraser and to reaching a satisfactory agree
ment with the Company during his visit. 1 said that I
shared his majesty's hopes but I warned him that during
the past fortnight tne Persian Government have confronted
Hr. Gass with a number of shares ./hich if conceded would
change the character of tne Concession and would deprive
the Company of effective control of future operations.
Cuch tactics jere deplorable, and I only hope that with
the Chairman’s arrival discussions ,/ould tame a ,.iore
realistic turn. The Shah expressed agreement and sedd
that he intended tne Government to concentrate on
essentials and m particular on securing an adequate
increase in .royalty payments.
Foreign Office please pass to .-ashington as my
telegram ho. 66' and waving to ho scow and B o m.C.0. (Cairo)
as my telegrams Nos. 11 and 25 respectively. ‘
