PRIORITY
SENT DEPT 347, LONDON 67, EYES ONLY AMBASSADOR
FROM HARRIMAN FOR THE PRESIDENT AND SECRETARY.
NO DISTRIBUTION EXCEPT AS DIRECTED BY SECRETARY's OFFICE
"I omitted from my telegram earlier today reference to
discussions with mixed oil Committee regarding ICJ decision
Up to this time Brit have stuck to the court's decision,
which I have pointed out to Iranians, while Iran Government
has rejected that decision and has strictly adhered to nine
point nationalization law. It has been with considerable
difficulty that Iranians have been persuaded not (rpt not)
to insist upon nine-point law as basis for discussions with
British and it is obviously equally important that the British
not (rpt not) interject the ICJ courts decision in their reply
to Iran Government's offer of discussions. This does not (rpt
not) mean, of course, that either side has repudiated its
position if no (rpt no) settlement is reached in negotiations.
