- 1931/1931
- Description:
- Abstract: The file comprises telegrams, letters with enclosures, correspondence, memoranda, and notes, relating to the examination of the Persian Government's attitude towards the Turko-Persian frontier settlement of 1914. The discussion in the correspondence is in response to a letter from an official of the Government of Persia over a matter concerning water rights in which it was stated that 'the frontier delimitation made in 1914 is not regarded as official'.The discussion in the file relates to the British drafting of a response from the Government of Iraq to the Persian delegation in Baghdad in view of the British perception that this was the first challenge of the Imperial Persian Government to the validity of the frontier settlement of 1914.The principal correspondents are: the Counsellor to the High Commissioner for Iraq (R S M Sturges); the High Commissioner for Iraq (Lieutenant-Colonel Sir Francis Henry Humphreys); Minister of Foreign Affairs, Government of Iraq (Abdullah Al Damluji); the Secretary of State for the Colonies (James Henry Thomas).Physical description: Foliation: the foliation sequence for this description (used for referencing) commences at f 575, and terminates at f 583, as it is part of a larger physical volume; these numbers are written in pencil, and are located in the top right corner of the recto side of each folio. A previous foliation sequence, which is also circled, has been superseded and therefore crossed out.
