WLT(PSP.SUBJ.3353 copy / OR2 INCOMING TELEGRAM Department of State TELEGRAPH BRANCH TOP 853 D-X A Action Control: 12571 NEA Rec'd: July 24, 9 1951 FROM: Tehran 2:56 p.m. Info SS TO: Secretary of State G EUR NO: 354 , July 24 , 8 p.m. E DCR NIACT. SENT DEPT 354 , LONDON 72 (EYES ONLY AMBASSADOR). o EYES ONLY SECRETARY. NO (RPT NO) DISTRIBUTION EXCEPT AS DIRECTED BY SECRETARY'S OFFICE. FROM HARRIMAN. Re London's 25 rptd Washington 429. In all official documents and statements by Iran Govt AIOC must be referred to as "former" As ridiculous as this may seem considering the fact that AIOC is a UK company with extensive operations outside Iran, I believe Iran Govt wld consider it impossible to exclude "former" from anything written by them, and requesting them to do so wld serve no (rpt no) useful purpose and might do harm. Omission of word by Iran Govt wld signify in eyes of public they had abandoned nationalizationo Iranians have said no (rpt no) one wld expect the Brit, in their reply, to use the word.
