New Hartman Letter
Sent 10 Mossadegh in
Effort for Oil Accord
BY the Associated Press

Ambassador w. Averell Har-
riman was disclosed yesterday to
have written a personal letter to
Premier Mohammed Mossadegh in
a renewed effort to end the IRAN
ian oil crisis.
Informed officials also said Mr..
Hartman has held up delivery of
the premier's ultimatum to Britain
to resume the suspended oil talks,
or face expulsion of $50 British
refinery technicians remaining in
Iran.
The nature of Mr.. Harriman's
appeal to DR.. MoSsadegh was not
disclosed. That has been left up
to the premier.
No Doors Closed.
But officials here, still nursing
hope that agreement can be
reached, said no doors have been
closed to the possibility of a set
tlement in the protracted dispute.
1t was not stated whether Mr..
Hartman, President Truman's in
termediary in the oil negotiations,
refused to deliver the Iranian
government ultimatum to Britain
It was sent to Mr.. Hartman
Wednesday through the Embassy
here with a request that it be
passed on to the British govern
ment.
This seeming round about
method was used in lieu of normal
diplomatic channels, apparently in
hope the United States again
would act as mediator.
Offer to Return Stands.
Mr.. Hartman arranged the
Anglo-Iranian oil talks, which
broke down August %. He said on
his return to Washington that he
was prepared to return to Teheran
to try again if invited. Officials
said yesterday the offer still
stands.
When DR.. Mossadegh's cable
was dispatched. an Iranian
spokesman said the two-week
period of the ultimatum would be-
gin when it was handed to Britain.
Revival of the negotiations
would represent third try at set
ting the dispute over Matchmaking
the vast holdings of the Anglo
Iranian Oil Co.. which before its
operations ceased was producing
at the rate of 80 million tons a
year.

Suddenly Trant felt the fzz of excitement
which the unexpected always brought. The
program in his hand was rolled. Unlike Dodo,
Brickell had not been program roller. He
glanced at the virgin program thrusting up
from behind Dodo's pocketbook.
"Dodo, when you dropped your things you
must have switched programs with Brickell. !"
He took the fresh program from her and
opened it. Against the cast of characters he
saw neatly jotted notes. Enchanting =. the
spirit of youth reborn in the Theater.
liz SMILED wryly at Mrs. Brickell. I'm
sorry. / did underestimate your husbands

Picking a policeman for an escort, printing
him ahead of time with other peoples mo-
tives for murder. Very smart to switch pro-
grams, too. suppose you'd guessed his notes
would be favorable"
Dodo stared: Darling -"
''The ring, of course" Firmly Trant re-
moved it from her finger and fiddled until
pressed catch released the jeweled face to
reveal tiny compartment The divine
Cars poison ring. So amusing And so
handy for dropping strychnine into the
orangeade Particularly when Race was hold
ing the drink right by you while Brickell
fumbled for his tablets. And you knew
Brickelps cold would keep him from noticing
the bitter TASTE"
Dodo Mulligan's glare was ominous now.
"But you're out of your mind. Why? Why?"
II should have guessed that, too. Brickell
was literate guy. wondered why he said
your last piece of loot when dramatically he
should have said latest But of course he
meant last didn't he? He was going to
make sure it was your last. When did he
threaten to expose your looting activities?
This afternoon suppose. No wonder you
were in such hurry to kill him."
Dodo Mulligan looked naughty as chal-
lenged Empress. Trant's gamble had been
terrific. Everything depended on proving
blanket from the dead man.
when Brickell mentioned his lawyer he
tapped his pocket as if he had papers II
wonder. -" His fingers slipped into the
pocket. mo papers now. So you sneaked
them into your pocketbook while you were
loosening his muffler."
liz SWUNG to Willie Mulligan's ex-wife and
snatched the pocketbook from her hand In
side it, he found an unsealed envelope. He
opened it and read out loud:
Dear Mr.. Mullgan:
II feel should warn you, as a reputable
public figure, that am going to report your
ex-wife to the police Although am sure
you have no idea of this, she has been using

He eyed Dodo almost sadly Perhaps being Willie Multi

lasted of course. Fun and exciting engage successful
game of blackmaing important people.
But who wanted to end up in the Tombs? The End
