Although the Standard Oil Company
Of New York is considering certain oil
concessions in Persia offered by the
Government of that country. no final ac-
tion has been taken by the company, one
of its officials stated yesterday in an
swer to an inquiry concerning reports
from abroad that the company had Sc
cured extensive long term oil conces-
s.ons in northern Persia.
\ 1t was said the matter probably would
come up for action by the directors OF
the, company after A. c. Bedford, chair
man of its board. returns TO the United
States early in December. Mr. Bedford
will sail for home on the Olympic to-
morrow following a six weeks sojourn
in Europe.
Officials of the company here were
unable to say yesterday how great a
factor the oil monopoly of the Anglo
Persian interests would be in determin-
ing how much of the proposed conces-
sions is free to be allocated.
