1. When the question raised in your telegram*No. 514- was
discussed with the head of the Near East Division or the Staid
Department, the latter took occasion to complain that v/e had
not volunteered more information to the United States
Government on the subject of the proposed Persian treaty. He
said that the text of the treaty had been obtained in Tehran
only when the United States Minister was instructed to ask for
it, and that the United States Embassy in London had also only
obtained the•information when they pressed for it.
2r. He added that there was one clause in the treaty in
regard to which the United States Government might have to ask
for clarification. This was a -clause stating that the Allied
Governments, defined apparently as the Soviet Government and
His Majesty*s Government, would have separate negotiations with
the Persian Government in regard to handing over to Persia of
any installations which might be set up in that country. The
head of the Near East Division pointed out that the installations
which were being erected were being largely supplied from
Lease-Lend materials, and that the United States Government
would probably wish to be consulted in regard to the question
of handing them over to the Persians.
3c I have not received any copy of the text of the
treaty, and assumed that the United States Government were
being kept informed either by you or by His !
in Tehran, in so far as this was considered
INDIV.
