My telegram No. 15.
Minister for Foreign /iffairs, Minister of
Posts, director of Department, and I met
yesterday to' discuss outline agreement which
Ministers evidently accept as basis with following
modifications.
1. They consider JasloGwabur line and cables
should be added to list of lines handed over in
paragraph 1 in view of the fact that Persian govern
ment agree in paragraph 4 to allow our control till
1945. They argue that this is their interpretation
of relevant paragraph in'Sir K. Clive’s note of
October 1st.
I pointed out that J&sk-Gwadur line and cables
•came under a different category to those which were
being handed over but eventually agreed to submit
point to you.
They also propose sentence to the effect that
I.D.T. Department cease to assume responsibility for
maintenance of Arabistan line.

2. In paragraph 3 they propose addition of
words "and claims" after "cancel all debts".
